How it feels

You stand still as a cactus, taking in the quiet desert scenery in a meditative, slow-paced experience.

What players say

Players agree this is a meme game meant to be left running for achievements, but many report it crashes from memory leaks and uses far more resources than a black screen should. The achievement grind is extreme, targeting 1000 hours, which divides those amused by the joke from those frustrated by the technical failures.
