    What Steam players say

    Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

    ✦ AI summary

    Players appreciate the game's premise and find it engaging initially, but criticize it for shallow gameplay that becomes repetitive quickly, limited educational depth, and technical problems including crashes and tutorial bugs. The game's slow pacing and long wait times are also frequently mentioned as frustrating, though some enjoy the work-from-home simulation aspect.

    This is good, play it

    I just want to thank playing this game for persuading me not to pursue a career in tech shops and working in house support instead. Don't get me wrong the game is good but the waiting time is excruciating even with high time compression.
    Not recommended Dec 3, 2025
    Don't recommend this game. Tutorial is bugged and dev. just forget about this game in 2023 year. That all and you may forget about all achievement.

    The game is interesting but rather shallow. After a little while, you have seen everything it has to offer. The devs missed the boat when it came to make an educational game via game mechanics. There are too few things you can do and learn just a little about computers. Just like Mechanic Simulator and all those other garbage games that are made in a haste. If you see it cheap though, it is a good enough to be added to your library if you like computers. I really liked it, but it becomes repetitive due to lack of content.
    Not recommended Aug 30, 2024
    I got it on sale for under $8 USD and its not worth it!!! My PC is well over the recommended system requirements and it always crashes, I thought it was maybe something with workshop mods causing the problem but after unsubscribing to all items from the workshop verifying game files and double checking in game it had no mods the f*****g game still crashes F this POS!!!!!!! Spend ur money on something else!!

    Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.
