How it feels
A frantic physics-driven climb where every swing of the rope and smash of the environment feels chaotic yet precise, with dark humour sprinkled into the destruction.

What players say
Players like the core loop of climbing quickly while water rises, but find it repetitive due to few level elements and clunky rope controls. There are performance complaints about GPU usage, and the Japanese localization is auto-translated with missing fonts.
