How it feels

A methodical puzzle game where you arrange units on a grid to solve logic problems, with scattered comic-style storytelling adding a light narrative layer.

What players say

Players compare it to a mix of pipe-connecting and Sokoban on a 6x6 grid. The difficulty ramps heavily, with some late puzzles relying on luck due to randomized unit placement, leading to split opinions. The game offers dozens of levels and a quirky office-worker story, but lacks an undo button and punishes missteps.
