How it feels

You wander a colorful, surreal alien bazaar as a lowly janitor, incinerating trash in a daily loop that feels both mundanely meditative and quietly oppressive.

What players say

Players are split: some find the garbage-collecting loop boring and quit quickly, while others connect with its theme of being stuck in a miserable life and return for the atmosphere. Complaints include loud audio, lack of a map, and disorienting visuals.
