Steam reviews

What players say

Mostly positive: players like the physics-based automation puzzles and dark humour, but many find the later phases slow and the building controls fiddly.

Many players enjoy building automated setups that feed items into the pit, with physics tools that turn each layout into a puzzle, and the bleak, absurd tone that runs through its secrets and endings. Some praise the value and length for the price. Many complaints centre on building: objects snap badly, must be moved one at a time, and catch on edges. Some find phases 3 and 4 slow or repetitive, and several describe a scripted event that wrecked their setups until a patch removed it. Reviews from the last year lean more mixed than Steam's totals, with newer players more likely to mention grind or crashes. Players with under 20 hours mostly recommend it, as do those with 20 to 200 hours, though longer players raise late-game repetition more often.

Who it suits

Suits players who enjoy automation and physics puzzles and don't mind fiddly building, especially those who like dark humour and hunting secrets.

Who should skip it

Should skip it if you dislike clunky placement mechanics or expect a smooth, fast-progressing incremental game.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with under 20 hours mostly praise the puzzles, while those with 20 hours or more more often raise the repetitive late phases and the building controls.
