How it feels

It feels like a frantic race against your own dwindling size, scrambling to solve puzzles and manage resources in a claustrophobic lab as every second shrinks your options.

What players say

Players enjoy the concept of shrinking over time but note short length with almost no replayability. Movement uses tank controls and the setting stays in one room, which some wish was expanded. Graphics are plain and the game is mostly straightforward puzzle-solving.
