About
The surface has been claimed by an Impact Winter but beneath the ice and earth, mankind hibernates. As a young apprentice mechanic, you wake up in the dark. The Power Plant is offline. The Water Treatment Plant seems to be too. The Cryo Colony is in danger!
What begins as a simple trip to fetch your mentor’s wrench sets off a winding journey through the caverns below to a vast Snowcean above to rescue friends, foes, and strangers alike.
Along the way, you'll find and master eight unassuming tools, each opening new paths for exploration. Starting with just the Crank Lantern to light your first steps into the dark and the Wrench Sword to swing at what you find lurking in it, you'll be bounding, drilling, gliding, stomping, and dashing your way across the world of the Ratcheteer by the time you reach the end.

Really fun little adventure game
Genuine piece of pure magic, nostalgia and lo-fi charm. Occasionally saw this game on the Twitch in Playdate console stream and just loved it from first sight! Sweet and NES-like look, good music and sound design made me calm and satisfied and smiling. Worth it's every penny.
PRO: enjoyable, zelda feeling CONS: sometimes a little bit cluncky and maybe overpriced for ~2h of game's duration
Great game! Had lots of fun with the puzzles and mechanics. Short and sweet!
This feels like a classic GB era Zelda, compact, clever, and fun. As an older gamer, this hits right in the nostalgia; I’m not sure newer generations will appreciate its simplicity and retro design quite as much. The lantern mechanic does feel a bit limited at times, but I get that it’s carried over from the original version, so it’s understandable. Concluding: short, retro, and enjoyable.
cute game, fun to see areas of retraversal and then getting the item for it.
This is a really nice little action/adventure. The setting and abilities are fun and it didn't outstay its welcome :)
內容太少 後面找到的寶箱幾乎都是礦石(這裡的錢),用途很少又有上限999,沒有額外寶物可以不用放寶箱沒關係 雪區白到閃瞎我的眼,雪海我已經因為跳船沒跳成功而重跑好幾次了,你必須在跳起之後馬上再按一次跳才能夠滑行到陸地上,否則你會回到船上,這設計真有點白癡了 尾王前的路有一個需要鑽開又緊鄰生命值那塊,視力不好的人很有可能會沒發現 如果你不缺錢倒是可以買來玩
A small Zelda-like that is well made and fun.
Excellent game. Really enjoying the pixel art and the Zelda-like gameplay.
