Steam reviews

What players say

Most players recommend this short, cozy potato-peeling incremental for its satisfying upgrades and dark humour, but many find it too short and repetitive once automation takes over.

Many players enjoy the peeling-to-automation progression: the early hand-peeling is slow, but new knives, upgrades and production lines speed things up noticeably. Players praise the Soviet-satire atmosphere, the story snippets, the dog, and the endings with moral choices. Some reviewers say the game finishes in roughly three to five hours and offers little replay value, with no endless or new game plus mode. Common complaints are a slow opening, forced upgrade paths, a wheelbarrow that can get stuck in the potato pile, and writing that some find clumsy. Several reviewers say the manual peeling stops mattering once machines take over. Recent reviews are more mixed on length and repetition than the older helpful reviews, which are largely positive.

Praised

  • Satisfying upgrade progression

    Players enjoy how new knives, peelers and automation steps noticeably speed up the work and make the loop rewarding.

    Many players
  • Dark humour and Soviet atmosphere

    The satirical Soviet setting, absurd lines and bleak humour are repeatedly praised as the game's main charm.

    Many players
  • Relaxing, casual pace

    Players describe it as an easy, relaxing game to play while watching videos, with little need for concentration.

    Some players
  • Good value for the price

    Players think the low price fits the length and content, especially on sale, though some find it too short for that cost.

    Some players

Criticised

  • Too short overall

    Reviewers say the game ends after roughly three to five hours, leaving little reason to come back.

    Many players
  • Repetitive, monotonous grind

    Players find the loop repetitive, with manual peeling feeling tedious and later stages reduced to waiting for machines.

    Many players
  • Slow, forced opening

    The first hour is described as slow, with upgrades forced in a fixed order and automation unlocking late.

    Some players
  • Missing replay value and endless mode

    Reviewers want an endless mode, new game plus or extra content, since there is little to do after the ending.

    Some players
Who it suits
Players who enjoy incremental and clicker games, cozy relaxing play, and dark Soviet-satire humour will likely get the most out of it.
Who should skip it
Players wanting long-lasting content, replay value or an endless mode, and those with wrist or hand pain, should skip it or check the accessibility options first.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with very short playtimes mostly praise the early upgrades and humour, while those who finished the game and played for many hours more often say the late game is too short and repetitive.
