How it feels

You feel like a weary laborer methodically tracking and netting mutated creatures in a grim industrial setting, with a tense, repetitive rhythm.

What players say

Players are hooked by the number-go-up loop and the relaxed creature collecting, but they say the early access build runs out of content after a few hours. Reviews split on the platforming, some find it fun, others a hassle, and the teleport pad system draws complaints for being tedious.
