“Graphics: Potato. Gameplay: Questionable. Fun factor: Surprisingly high. It's a satire of modern tech and it works. Don't buy if you want CoD, buy if you want to laugh at absurdity of the world.”
“I would like to mention the game's fantastic graphics, cool soundtrack, and dynamic gameplay. It's a pure chill game.”

“Funny trash with a soul. A clumsy scientist fixes everything with a sledgehammer, the plot is stupid, but it makes you smile. I watched it in one evening and have no regrets. It's a fire at a discount.”

“A hilarious satirical take on science and incompetence! You play as a "romantic scientist" who solves everything with a sledgehammer and red buttons instead of actual knowledge. The puzzles are quirky, the first-person…”

“A uniquely satirical sci-fi adventure with sharp humor, great atmosphere, and rewarding logic puzzles. The gameplay is more walking-sim than action, and the graphics are deliberately low-fi, but its quirky charm and wit make it a surprisingly delightful indie gem.”

— a player, Steam review · 5 hrs played“Weak craft. Quests are primitive, the graphics are outdated, and the gameplay is boring. After an hour, I gave up. I don't recommend buying it even on a discount. It's better to get something normal.”
