Goblin Cleanup

its such a great game, super colorful and honestly reminds me what happens to me when i play Fate. the poor goblins cleaning up my dead body because i didnt grab healing potions. my husband and i love to play this game!

I like the idea of the game but it is literally impossible (ok I'm being a little dramatic) to play alone when my friends are unavailable to play.

Very fun with friends! if I had any.....

I would say that it fits well in the cleaning sim genre, but the puzzles and hazards of the worksites make it more attractive for the easily distracted. It's much easier to recommend to people at this point because the first dungeon seems to be fully complete. I've been playing for over 60 hours and haven't found all the secrets or most optimal methods of doing things; there's definitely plenty to do.

Got this game as a birthday gift. [b]Severely[/b] disappointed. The development developers, and the support developers do not communicate with each other. The development developers programmed behaviour into the game for when a Nintendo Switch controller is being used, including additional assets for said behaviour, yet the support developers claim the game does not support Nintendo Switch controllers, and said it only supports XBox and Playstation controllers. (So I guess it doesn't support generic gamepads…?) So one of two things is happening: 1) The game supports Nintendo Switch controllers, and the support developers are uninformed. 2) The developers programmed said behaviour and added said assets in order to be actively hostile to people using Nintendo Switch controllers. I'm inclined to believe it to be the first. However, the behaviour that has been programmed for Nintendo Switch controllers makes the game unplayable, so I will be attempting to refund the game and get my friend who gifted me the game their money back.

An enjoyable game! For what it's worth this game is easier than Viscera Cleanup detail. If you walk on bloodstains it doesn't track blood everywhere and it does have systems in place to prevent a situation where you can't 100% due to a bloodstain going out of bounds. Because of this, the game is less punishing to a bad order of doing things than Viscera Cleanup detail. It is also a lot quicker to do a level than in Viscera, as a Viscera level could take 2-3 hours, where a level in Goblin Cleanup will take ~30 minutes with friends. I also understand the decisions from a netcode perspective. The fact that Viscera would add lots and lots of entities for bloodstains and physics items and stuff would cause the networking to degrade and start schizo'ing out which is not an issue here. Played with an American and a New Zealander with no issues in this game. Additionally this game runs fine on Linux. No issues there. One thing this game could benefit from is achievements for completing each level, though it does have achievements that are proxies for that. I think there is also potential for achievements that are easter egg-based. There's a lot of things in fantasy that could have easter eggs in this game and they were a part of Viscera Cleanup detail that, even if they were low-effort for the developer to add in, always gave me a smile when I discovered them. As someone who 100%'d Viscera Cleanup detail this game is a "♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, Two cakes!" experience, because afaik there's not many games that offer this style of gameplay loop.
