How it feels

A grimly humorous sci-fi prison where every death restarts your climb through gang politics, tactical battles, and rat-taming crafting loops.

What players say

Players praise the risk/reward balance and perma death, along with the reputation mechanics and a great ending. However, they split on variety: some find the gameplay repetitive after a few days, and the game is considered short. Inventory management is notable, and the drone is called overpowered.
