The game isn't produced by the original team, according to Munchies, but it has the same 8-bit look and addictive nature. The game's goal, as tradition stipulates, is to keep morale high, while playing different activities — or you'll be writing tombstones.

You can play the game in your browser, and be sure to have something else ready to bring up on screen when your boss wanders past.

Cruise around Oregon's other locations for other activities — throw hockey T-shirts at a Willamette Falls game, go mountain biking around the Rowena Crest Loops, have beavers steal your socks, pretend to be a sommelier in the Williamette Valley, go whale watching at Haystack Rock.

You can also go hunting at Anthony Lakes, build a wizard snowman with a backstory on the way to Painted Hills, go ice skating at Three Sisters, and get yelled at for pumping your own gas (not allowed in Oregon, people).

The whole game prompts you to book a trip to Oregon, of course, but with this level of detail and throwbackery, we're all for it.

Munchiesreports that you can play the game through to December 31.
