A meditative, minimalist puzzle game where you push blocks in a text-based world inspired by cellular automata.

What players say
Players compare it to Baba Is You, saying it blends Sokoban block-pushing with rule-mutation mechanics that get deeper in later chapters. The puzzle design is seen as clever and rewarding, but the lack of tutorial hints makes it extremely difficult, often causing players to get stuck early.
