At first it's confusing. Once you figure it out, it occasionally makes you laugh out loud. Then it gets addictive. You have to see what comes next. But you have to play it in short bursts or you go insane.

This game is basically brainriot before it was a thing, there are some really funny interactions and unexpected solutions which I really enjoyed. The story mode is pretty short and made me laugh quite a few times, but I was never able to play for too long (maybe too much brainriot/randomness lmao). I've found that doing short sessions made it less tiresome, specially because there are a few later levels that are REALLY annoying to 100%. Even so, I enjoyed most of the game, if you enjoy that 2010s randomness humor, you are gonna love this game.

A really decent Warioware style game with a distinct character and sense of humor of its own. It definitely got quite a few chuckles out of me and even though the main story mode is kind of short, there are numerous Steam Workshop levels that are worth playing through at least once.

March 2025
A relic of frantic, absurd digital interaction. McPixel offers fleeting, stressful amusement by weaponizing trial-and-error against a relentless clock. Its charm lies in its deliberate rejection of logic, a brief dopamine hit before the inevitable explosion or the equally inevitable platform-enforced obsolescence. Amusing, disposable, and a stark reminder that your digital purchases have a shelf life dictated by forces beyond your control. Acquire if you enjoy controlled chaos and planned decay.

It's a series of fun, random pixelated scenarios where you have to prevent disasters. By doing completely random things that have completely random outcomes. It's a very simple game, but it's supposed to be this way. You win by trial and error usually, as it almost never makes sense... but that's the fun of it. You get to see all the completely nonsensical interactions that go on.
