PLAYISM announced Dyping Working: Work Surveillance Game on October 13 and opened its Steam store page. Developed by Heaviside Creations, the PC work horror adventure game is planned for release in 2027. It is a spin-off of the horror typing game series that began with DYPING, a free title played more than 700,000 times, and continued with Dyping Escape, which launched on Steam in March 2026 and holds a Very Positive rating with about 91 percent of roughly 560 user reviews positive. In the new game, an eyeball on the screen forces the player to sign a pledge: I accept all surveillance related to work. Mouse cursor movement and whether other tabs are open are detected. Slacking off can bring punishment after work. Players can talk with the eyeball, whose reactions shift over time, and the story reveals the secret of its birth and bloody experiments.
PLAYISM is the publishing brand run by Active Gaming Media, and the announcement came through its own news channel. Development is by Heaviside Creations, which put out 'Dyping Escape' on Steam on March 13 and released a teaser video on October 10, which it calls "Eye Love Day," addressed to "all you gamers who stare at monitors every day."
The store page lists Japanese, English, and Simplified Chinese language support, a single player, and an undecided price. Screenshots point to a work tool resembling a Pomodoro timer. The eyeball that sits on the screen can have its skin and color switched, and the cat from earlier entries in the series also returns with customizable looks.
- Surveillance and conversation with the eyeball
- The tension of being watched, meant to keep work from going off track
- Customization options for comfortable work
- Appearance changes for the eyeball
- More than 10 newly written songs
- An authentic spin-off of the free 'DYPING' series
In the earlier games, players typed what the Eye instructed, and the words entered came back to affect them, sometimes causing unreasonable deaths. 'Dyping Escape' added story and gimmicks to that free title and holds Very Positive status with about 91 percent of roughly 560 user reviews positive. New information will be announced through Steam news.
