What players say

Players describe it as a simple sorting job that becomes meditative, with an unsettling but addictive tone. Many note that learning to identify bolt lengths by sight is a skill that develops, and that the hardcore mode without auto-sort is where the game shines. Players are split on the online mode, with some enjoying competition and others finding it punishing.
