The WhatsNext verdict
For Players who enjoy frantic time-attack puzzle games and novel spatial mechanics.: The central hook of steadily shrinking inside a laboratory transforms routine recipe-gathering into an escalating logistical crisis, forcing you to rearrange physical spaces and prioritize tasks before counters and machines become out of reach. Tradeoff: A short total runtime and somewhat awkward interaction physics mean the experience relies heavily on the strength of its core premise rather than extensive content or mechanical polish.
What it does best
A brilliantly simple shrinking-lab premise
Panic rises with every inch you lose
A compact laboratory full of clever logistical puzzles
What might put you off
Rough controls and technical bugs
Very short and somewhat replay-dependent
The setup
What you are walking into
You play as a shrinking scientist in a race against time. Your task is to find all the necessary formulas and ingredients to produce the antidote, in order to stop shrinking. Though processing ingredients takes valuable time – time you should use to search for missing components or rearrange the lab for when you're too small to reach the machines you need.
