Start with the beginner guide for a video-based tutorial, then check co-op, current availability and PC requirements. Sources and dates are recorded in each guide.

What players do during a run

Explore changing factory areas, find items and return tribute while avoiding threats. Steam describes hiding spots, distractions and alternate routes.

The in-game tutorial introduces Barry’s cart and shows how to deposit items. Our beginner guide follows the observed tutorial and links to the original video.

Solo, co-op and communication

Steam lists single-player and online co-op for 2-8 players, with proximity voice chat. The developer previously said a microphone is optional.

Solo support does not by itself establish an offline mode. Group scaling, matchmaking and reconnect behavior need separate verification.

Playable characters and enemy roles

Players control Smiling Critters while exploring the factory. The tutorial recording shows a character selection screen, but this does not establish individual abilities or balance.

Hostile creations are distinct from the playable Critters. Check the roster guide for the evidence and limits of current character information.

How this wiki separates facts from guesses

Guides distinguish official store information from observations of gameplay footage. Each source and check date is listed so readers can assess its relevance.

Game updates may change objectives, mechanics and availability. Where a detail cannot be confirmed, we say so instead of treating an older announcement as current.
