Steam reviews

What players say

Players like it as a free collection of unfinished prototypes; many enjoy the variety, though most projects are rough and some are broken.

Many players enjoy the sheer variety of the 23 prototypes, demos and experiments, and say it is worth trying for free. Players single out a few projects, such as Medieval America, Robots Forever 2, Blob Game, the missile and worm games, and the early version of TABS, as the most fun and most likely to deserve full releases. Many others, however, are short, lack sound or clear goals, or are unfinished and buggy, and several reviewers find a number of them dull or broken. Some games need other players and are pointless when played alone, and a few reviewers say the bundle is not worth paying for. Most reviews are positive and describe the collection as an interesting look behind the scenes of the studio, while some reviewers say it is a time killer rather than a complete game.

Who it suits

Suited to players who enjoy trying unfinished experiments, following the studio's history, or spending an hour or two with friends at no cost.

Who should skip it

Players who want a complete, polished game or who plan to play alone should skip it.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with many hours tend to focus on wishing specific prototypes became full games, while newcomers mostly enjoy sampling the variety.
