“This game is great, just an all round fun time (also it says I have 36 hoursplayed, that is not true, i have 86+ hours in the early access alone, but the 1.0 release bugges my playtime stats)”

— a player, Steam review · 4 hrs played“Simple. Cute. Frustrating. Just Like The IRL Counterpart. Wow, time really flies when you are not paying attention to it. This game caught my attention two years ago thanks to its cute art style and the idea of mixing a dungeon crawler with a claw machine. I had a blast playing…”
