How it feels

You manage dice inventory and haggle in a fast-paced, permadeath-driven market while surviving escalating rent and surreal corporate absurdity.

What players say

Players praise the cyberpunk aesthetic and the clever dice-based shopkeeping, but nearly everyone agrees the game is too short and too easy, with runs often finished in under two hours. The lack of an endless mode and larger content updates is a common disappointment, and some note the game has been abandoned.
