What players say
Players describe Payload as a minimalist puzzle game where you move across the faces of a cube switching tiles, with a dystopian story woven in. Many call it genuinely difficult and clever, but some find the lack of a restart button and being booted to the main menu after each level frustrating. A few critics say it looks and feels like a mobile port, not a PC game.
