How it feels

A quiet, introspective blend of match-3 puzzle and text-based storytelling that mirrors the cyclical, everyday grind of adult life with a touch of satirical wonder.

What players say

Players praise the match-3 puzzles as well-designed and addictive, but the real draw is the bleak, satirical story about corporate drudgery and modern life. Reviews are split on the writing: some find it brilliant and touching, while others call it clumsy and one-note. The game is short, often completed in a single evening.
