Minimum on the Steam store: 6 GB of memory, Nvidia GTX 660, 2 GB of storage. Runs on Windows, macOS.

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.
Description from the Steam store page.

The value story

The lowest price on record is $4.99, set in June 2026. Its cuts run 50 percent off as a rule. There have been 34 in the 5 years tracked, about 7 weeks apart. Past sales have already crossed the $6.58 BANGER line once.

Value puts it in the top 4 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 92 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 99 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Octodad: Dadliest Catch ($14.99, scores 73) beats it on value, while it beats OneShift ($4.99, scores 42).

Critics scored it 84. Players sit 11 points higher at 95 percent, which usually means a game that plays better than it reviews.

This site sampled 453 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 9 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written December 2021 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 80 percent of the 407 reviews written there were positive, against 95 percent overall, and those are 11 percent of everything written about it.

4.8 hours to finish it, 11 to exhaust it. The completionist tail is 2.4 times the campaign.

Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, and at 4.8 hours it is short enough to finish on one.

What players say

This game is very fun, although kinda short for my liking. If you've ever played Bennet Foddy's games, it's kinda similar to his style. I really liked figuring out all the little diagrams and the process of doing the actual tasks at hand, which is why I was kinda disappointed with the number of missions, since there were only six real ones (where you were completing a task) and one lesser one. The extra challenges...
