How it feels
a jokey but tense board-game-like turn-based strategy where gelatinous characters blow up power plants with shockwaves and lightning.

What players say
Players praise the clever campaign and humor, but split sharply on difficulty. Many call it punishing and note that the AI plays perfectly, forcing trial-and-error with no save feature and no way to skip dialogue on retry. A few call it boring or shallow, while others find it addictive and compare it to chess.
