How it feels

You methodically chip away at walls with a spoon, guided by a talking toilet, in a low-stakes prison break that feels more silly than tense.

What players say

Players are split on this short digging adventure. Some find it fun with a grappling mechanic and spoon upgrades, while others call it undercooked and too brief. The music in the final area clashes with the tone, and the energy system makes backtracking tedious.
