Should you play it?

Wrangle the hands and arms of a 1970s space cosmonaut and push, pull and twist your way through an increasingly precarious range of physically simulated stellar scenarios, where without gravity, nothing is still, nothing is secure, and nothing is simple.

  • Fun and hilarious cooperative experience
  • Well-designed puzzles and levels

  • Support for remote play together allowing online co-op

Things to keep in mind

  • Lack of native online multiplayer
