How it feels

You exist as an inert rock, passively observing seasons change with a gentle, absurdly meditative calm.

What players say

Players describe it as a zen-like experience where you simply exist as a rock and watch the world pass by. Many use it as a calming background activity or interactive screensaver, while some wish for more visual changes over millennia. Reviews are nearly unanimous in finding it soothing, though one reviewer notes a geological inconsistency.
