About N0-V4
N0-V4 is a darkly comedic platformer where you control a robot undergoing increasingly absurd and sadistic experiments designed by a mad scientist, racing against roombas and navigating magnet-filled chambers to prove your humanity. With multiple endings, secret routes, relentless fourth-wall breaks, and a surprisingly charming mad scientist obsessed with obedience, it's a short but hilarious descent into mechanical chaos that rewards skilled play and curiosity.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
N0-V4 is a creative and interactive fiction game with varied, inventive puzzles that players find engaging and unique, but it has a significant technical flaw where it changes your desktop background to purple and fails to restore it properly upon exit, requiring a PC restart to fix. Players praise the imaginative premise, diverse puzzle types, and overall creativity, though the background issue is frustrating enough that some consider it a major drawback.
N0-V4 it a cool and very interactive fiction and cool puzzle but do not like how it remove your desktop background and when you exit the game it stay like that all in one purple color so I have to restart my pc to see that fix it the purple color background go away but so do my background pic have to add it back on not great game if it mix up your pc4 found this helpful
Totally loved it! What a creative game! This is a complete hidden gem. Just play it and stick with it to the end, it's worth it. Hope to see more games like this!3 found this helpful
Novel Nova is a strange little game and I think that is exactly what makes it stand out. I start with an email from an unknown sender and a zip file containing an exe, with the game immediately asking whether I am human or a robot. From there I play as N0 V4, a robot created by Dr. Mari Machina and put through a series of bizarre tests before the World Robot Conference. I like the way it starts because it feels more like I am opening something I probably should not be opening. The tests are probably the best part for me because they are all different. One has me racing a Roomba, another puts me in a room full of magnets and there is also a chemistry based sliding section. None of these are particularly complicated, but they keep the game from feeling like one long repeated puzzle. I also like how the results of the tests actually matter. My performance can lead me towards different endings, so I have a reason to try again and see what happens when I make different choices. The fourth wall stuff is probably what gives Novel Nova most of its personality. The game knows that I am playing a game and it constantly plays around with that idea. Sometimes it is funny and ridiculous, whil…
