Steam reviews

What players say

Players overwhelmingly love its surreal art, bizarre characters and free price, though many find the wandering gameplay thin and the story hard to follow.

Most players recommend the game and praise its visual style, mixing retro, webcore and fever-dream imagery, along with voice acting in many languages and characters that stick with them. Many reviewers say the mood and absurd humour are the appeal, and several mention hidden secrets and Easter eggs that reward replaying. The main complaints are that there is little to do beyond walking, talking and light platforming or puzzles, that mazes and backtracking can wear thin, and that the story is so enigmatic that it is hard to follow. Some reviewers note that this first chapter is short and that later chapters are still to come. A few recent reviews report minor performance issues on weaker hardware, and some recent reviewers are simply enthusiastic, so recent reviews are more uniformly positive than the older helpful ones.

Praised

  • Surreal art and visuals

    Players praise the bizarre, mixed art styles, fever-dream landscapes and striking colours that feel unlike other games.

    Some players

Criticised

  • Little to do

    Players say the game is mostly walking, talking and light puzzles, with few meaningful choices.

    Many players
  • Story is hard to follow

    Players find the plot so enigmatic and nonsensical that they struggle to get engaged with it.

    Some players
  • Short and unfinished

    Reviewers note that the game is short and only one chapter is out, so it feels incomplete.

    Some players
  • Mazes and getting lost

    Reviewers find the mazes frustrating, confusing and tiring to backtrack through.

    A few players
Who it suits
Players who like surreal, art-driven experiences and quirky characters, and who want something free to explore.
Who should skip it
Players who want deep gameplay, clear storytelling or a long game should skip it, since this first chapter is short and mostly walking and talking.
