One of the best heist games I've ever played! The setting of the beautiful mansion and the lighting was amazing. The ambiance, was amazing too, with the creepy voices in the elevator setting the mood quite nicely! Truly an experience to be remembered! 10/10!

April 2017
“I like work: it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours.” ― Jerome K. Jerome Coming from the designer behind The Stanley Parable and a young developer team, this free little game with a needlessly long name carries a similar pattern of blatant absurdity. Due to the ridiculous amount of probable effort that I'd have to put while writing the whole completion of the title each time, I'll be referring to the game simply as Dr.Langeskov for the remainder of this review. Now that is settled, let me try doing this properly. Following the example of The Stanley Parable , it is somewhat hard to write a review to a game that would be better played without knowing anything about it. So, if you'd like to enjoy the full experience, I'd highly recommend to stop reading and give it a try to see it for yourself. Since it already is a freeware, you won't have anything to lose rather than 15 minutes of your time. Still here? Well then. You've asked for it. Since we've already downloaded the game, we must have intended to actually play it, right? There is one little problem though. As the game starts, we are very apologetically informed that they are unable to let us play since it is a single player game and there is already one person playing it. Apparently we have to wait for the other player to finish the game before trying it ourselves. But since the studio conditions are a bit below excellent - nope, of course there are no safety hazards! What is it you are thinking? - There is a shortage of employees in the whole place due to a recent strike. We are informed that it would all go quite swiftly if we were to help them simulate the game for the player inside. Reluctantly agreeing, we start following - or try to follow, at least - directions of the young director with a mousy voice and a British accent, who dreads that our every single action might end in a catastrophy. As you can see, this short, 15 minute adventure is a complete parody of a developmental concept. There is no actual game here. Like that the cake was a lie, the game itself is a lie. The whole thing is a smart and somewhat enjoyable conceptual experiment that could invoke some appreciation. Certainly not a masterpiece - and not in the claim of being so anyway - and the humor isn't exceptional, but Dr. Lengeskov presents you a distraction and a smirk on your face for 15 minutes: a task well done. It might be noteworthy to mention that the expected gameplay is somewhat linear contrary to The Stanley Parable , carrying only one possible ending. The idea is to enjoy the environment, the concept and the reactions you are having around. Very much like any joke. Throughout your playthrough, you might want to investigate the environment, since there are items around to collect for achievements. Achievements themselves are a bit buggy though. I recommend not using the steam overlay or sending the game to tray since it may block achievements from unlocking. If all else fails, verify cache and they should trigger the next time you are meeting their conditions. Go ahead. I know that you are already curious. It is not the wittiest kid on the block, but it is here and it is free with certain creative value. Enjoy!

Dr. Langeskov, The Tiger, and The Terribly Cursed Emerald: A Whirlwind Heist is a short free game. It takes approximately 15 minutes to finish it. This game is a nice unique experience and pretty humorous. During your way through the game you will be led by a voice, like in Stanley Parable. The voice acting is really enjoyable. If you have played The Stanley Parable and enjoyed the humour of it you should definitely try Dr. Langeskov, The Tiger, and The Terribly Cursed Emerald: A Whirlwind Heist.

I, what, hello...? Oh, so this is... this is... this is very awkward. Uhm.... yes, the review you wanted to read, well, someone else is reading it right now. I'm terribly sorry, this is very awkward. You can't read it, you can't, you can't. Just a moment. Hello? Can someone tell me how far the other one is? What? Slow reader... oh, great. Terribly sorry, yes, just a moment, I'm so sorry. This is a bit... embarassing. The review is really, really good. Well written, yes, to the point. But, this is not a problem. You can give me a hand maybe? While the other player reads? Yes, great. Can you upvote this comment? It's really easy and we're... we're short on employees right now, very unfortunate. Just hit the "Yes"-Button, right where it says "was this review helpful?". It's very easy, just click with your mouse. You'll help us a lot. Don't hit "No", it's the "Yes" button. So sorry for the inconvenience. The other player is almost done reading. Just a few more minutes. Yes, hello? What? What do you mean it was downvoted? This... no, it was well written. It can't be downvoted. I'm sorry, are you still there? Just a moment, I'll go check it out. You can read it any second now, any second, just a second. I'll be right back. Just wait here...

This was the coolest heist game that wasn't Payday 2 I ever played. I had trouble at one point trying to do a non-lethal run in the game because the game glitched and the tiger kept eating the guards. The devs promptly patched it, of course, being as fast as they are. The knife animations are wicked cool, too, but the non-lethal takedowns have their share of badassery. The grappling hook was a great addition, and I enjoyed scaling walls and throwing rocks from the roof to distract guards. The effects are amazing. 10/10 best free heist game ever made.

A dark/sad/weird/funny first person exploration game. You play a man on his last night alive as he obsesses over a mysterious painting. More of a story game in that it emphasizes mood and character over gameplay. Takes ten minutes to play and has "next-gen" features like a shrimp tank.
