Description

Short: Drive The Collected Works' LED box truck across New York, pick up the studio's case studies and deliver them before the clock runs out. Free, in your browser.

Long: Out of Office is a Crazy Taxi-style delivery game from The Collected Works, a design and branding studio in New York. You drive the studio's real LED box truck, whose sides play the work as you go, through a condensed New York City: Tribeca, SoHo, Chinatown, the Financial District, the Seaport and over the bridges to DUMBO. Every fare is a real project from the studio, from Expensify's rebrand to The North Face's 50th anniversary, and every delivery buys you more time. Jumps, drifts and near misses earn tips, and the six drivers are the studio's own team, each with a signature move. There's an Arcade mode, a three-minute mode and a Free Ride with no clock, a radio with four stations, a photo mode and online leaderboards. It runs in any modern browser, on a computer, a phone or a tablet, with a keyboard, a controller or a touch screen.
