  • Highly realistic and authentic IT simulation with tasks that closely mirror real-world IT support and troubleshooting activities.
  • Educational and informative for beginners and those interested in IT, offering hands-on experience with networking, BIOS, and common IT problems.
  • Developers are active and responsive, frequently updating the game and engaging with community feedback to improve and expand content.
  • The game currently suffers from numerous bugs and glitches, including task completion detection, UI issues, and softlocks that can frustrate and halt progress.
  • Repetitive gameplay with limited variety and content at this early stage makes the experience feel tedious after play sessions.
  • Lacks sufficient tutorials and guidance, especially for newcomers to IT, making it difficult to understand certain tasks and causing a steep learning curve.

  • gameplay

    23 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    22% positive mentions, 65% neutral mentions, 13% negative mentions

    Gameplay is generally simple and fun but can become repetitive, especially once mechanics are understood. It appeals more to players with IT knowledge, though some find the mechanics lacking depth or immersion. The game shows promise with a smooth core loop and ongoing improvements, but limited content and occasional bugs detract from the experience.

    • “Good game, pretty accurate gameplay, but only if you know your way around networking and IT.”
    • “Gameplay is super fun, with a lot of room to grow and add even more features and things to do.”
    • “Tiny dev team actively making the ambitious gameplay even better constantly!”
    • “Once you understand the mechanics, the jobs start to feel the same.”
    • “While I understand the need to simplify or gamify certain mechanics, this approach breaks immersion for anyone familiar with directory services.”
    • “As for gameplay and not bugs, tasks repeat pretty frequently and sometimes interrupt what you are doing.”

  • stability

    22 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The game offers an authentic troubleshooting experience but suffers from frequent and game-breaking bugs, particularly in the tutorial and key gameplay mechanics, leading to frustration. While it shows promise and educational value for IT enthusiasts, stability issues often hinder smooth play and may require patience as the developers improve it.

    • “I will say tho, this is my 3rd session on this game and it ended for the same reason as the other 2, there are game breaking glitches constantly.”
    • “I really do like this game but it's so frustrating that a game about troubleshooting requires so much troubleshooting to run.”
    • “I was really looking forward to this game, but ultimately couldn't finish day 3 because of how buggy the game is.”

  • story

    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    22% positive mentions, 45% neutral mentions, 33% negative mentions

    The story aspect is widely criticized for being nearly nonexistent and lacking any meaningful background or narrative. Players feel overwhelmed by missions without proper guidance or tutorials, making it difficult to understand the objectives, especially for those unfamiliar with IT work. The abrupt start with no context or introduction further detracts from the storytelling experience.

    • “It runs smoothly and the quests come quick.”
    • “I fully support the direction the game is going, and I hope the developers consider adding short tutorials or guidance systems to help new players learn the basics before tackling harder missions.”
    • “0/10 for story (don't even know if there is one).”
    • “I also didn’t like that you spawn in a big apartment with a full setup right away, and there’s no backstory at all.”
    • “But then, you get dumped with a critical time mission, a couple of major time missions and a couple of regular missions all at once, and if you have never actually worked in an IT department, you have no clue how to complete any of the tasks.”

  • graphics

    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    38% positive mentions, 24% neutral mentions, 38% negative mentions

    The graphics receive mixed feedback, with some users finding them neat but not exceptional, and noting occasional frame rate issues. However, many feel the visuals suit the game's style well and contribute positively to the overall atmosphere and experience.

    • “Graphics are good for the type of game.”
    • “I really like the concept, graphics, and overall feel of this.”
    • “The graphics, humor, and variety of tasks create a fun atmosphere that keeps you moving from one ticket to the next.”
    • “3/10 for graphics (some weird FPS spikes in certain screens).”
    • “Admittedly, the visuals also aren't the best either (and I know that doesn't matter for IT games and it's not why I don't recommend it).”
    • “Have seen some people complaining about graphics, which are neat but not exceptional, but this isn't a dealbreaker for me.”

  • optimization

    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    50% positive mentions, -25% neutral mentions, 75% negative mentions

    The game's optimization is mixed, with some users experiencing smooth performance and quick quest progression, while others express concerns about persistent performance issues and overall poor optimization.

    • “Optimization tasks: I want to have the ability to resolve issues permanently.”
    • “It runs smoothly and the quests come quick.”
    • “Concerns about performance.”
    • “I want to have the ability to resolve optimization issues permanently.”
    • “Terrible optimization for a game like this.”

  • grinding

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The game is criticized for being very grindy and repetitive, with players frequently performing the same tasks like fixing errors on computers and printers. The need to log in and re-download resources each session adds to the tedium, particularly for casual players with limited playtime.

    • “Currently the game is very grindy and repetitive, constantly running around fixing repeating errors on computers and printers with little variation.”
    • “Having to log in and re-download them every time can get a bit tedious—especially as a casual player who usually plays in short sessions.”

  • humor

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The humor is appreciated for its realistic and relatable scenarios, such as users asking obvious questions, and the inclusion of playful elements like a roadmap feature that humorously limits cybersecurity involvement. Overall, it adds a lighthearted and enjoyable touch to the experience.

    • “Some of the tickets were funny as there's some realism, for example, an end user asked why their device won't turn on.”
    • “I also can just solve my issues without reaching out to cybersecurity before everything I do, but even that is on the roadmap already which I find hilarious and awesome.”

  • monetization

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The game's monetization is intrusive, with players required to watch developer ads during the tutorial, disrupting the gameplay experience.

  • atmosphere

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The atmosphere is engaging and lively, driven by appealing graphics, humor, and diverse tasks that maintain a sense of fun and momentum throughout the game.

    • “The graphics, humor, and variety of tasks create a fun atmosphere that keeps you moving from one ticket to the next.”
