Jan. 2025

The game brought back a lot of memories for me. About my birthplace, a far Siberian city. Depressing and cold. Dreamed about leaving it for a better life for like 20 years. Took the first opportunity to do so and never regretted it, not a single moment. The game is simple and gets repetitive very quickly, but it's a small slice of a very accurate capture of life, which is nice to get nostalgic about, but not for too long, and thank God just in the game... Story-wise, the game features an interesting mindset: while the main character is just a janitor, every day he remembers his goal: to leave the city. Not to get a better job or more comfortable apartment in this hellhole, family. No, every buck he earns serves the main goal: his dream, away from all this winter, panel houses, and drunkards in them. Something I do all the time, changing places without a second thought. While my old friends just can't jump out of their comfortable bucket, even though they have a good income. All they need is just stop wasting it and make some savings; make preparations, and in a year they can move wherever they want, at least in their country. But most people just don't have this faculty. Living their whole life in the same trash can they were born in.

Communism Simulator You work day and night in the freezing streets while the bourgeoisie are in the comfort of their homes, your salary is terrible, you have no freedom at all, everything around you is very the same and similar. And the main objective of the game is the difficult task of saving money to escape the country.

Sept. 2024

8/10, a pleasant and worthwhile atmospheric job simulator to wind down to. The objective is just far enough away to feel like a challenge but not so far that it feels pointless or unfair. But that's irrelevant, the gameplay loop is satisfying and calming. Took me a little over 3 hours to get 50k rubles ($550 btw) and I want to play again sometime. That was one week in game with the day/night cycle, so a full game day must be about 30 minutes. I felt the need to turn up the in game brightness a lot because sometimes it's hard to see, but you do get a flashlight. Game is a little heavy to run, I had to play on low settings with my laptop with MX150 GPU. Crashed a few times but autosave seemed to work well, and it's probably my laptop's fault.

Sept. 2024

The game make you feel cold, desperate, lonely! (but so many people inside the flats around), but also very calm and somehow happy. You need to like the cold, snow, and darkness. Then it's surprisingly really enjoyable.

March 2024

Очень атмосферная игра, с выдающимся сюжетом и интересным главным героем. "Цена = качество" - главный девиз игры. Несмотря на это, чувствуется некий "вайб" что ли, знакомый всем нам с пост-Советского времени. Тот самый случай, когда убираешься не дома, а в игре 😊
