How it feels

A slow, meticulous, and oddly meditative janitorial cleanup of a gory sci-fi disaster, with a dry sense of humor.

What players say

Players are split on whether the game is a chill zone-out experience or a stress-inducing chore. Many love the humor and therapeutic cleaning loop, but nearly everyone mentions the fragile physics engine that makes stacking and carrying objects infuriating. The scoring system is widely criticized for being opaque and punishing.
