Yesterday I walked straight into the sofa for no earthly reason.
And all for under a fiver!
It is very clear this is what is happening even though these are very small blocky 2D characters.

It made me laugh a lot.
Your character in Sokobos is indeed burdened with terrible purpose.
He has vowed to Zeus that he will build an amazing temple, all by himself.

Genuinely mind melting, and I have gotten stuck fairly early on, before it gets properly complicated.
The bottom floor is a pub/cafe with attached kitchen, run by Hildred.
As in,people.

Some of them you might turn into fertiliser for the greenhouse on the top floor.
This means that when things fuck up, they fuck up a lot and very quickly.
I started playing this as kind of a joke, but you know what?

This is bloody alright.
Plus the animations for Hildred putting people in the mincer are great.
I also recommend waiting for as long as possible before upgrade your pub to have tables.
you could almost make more money without ‘em.
I am unclear as to why, but I really like the slightly grungy look of the place.
This place is the titular system, and the purge refers to its attempts to get rid of you.
This may not be a hugely original premise, but man if I’m not also really enjoying it.
Your jump has a satisfying little boing.
Around you, lasers shoot up and big snap-traps prime their huge jaws to spring shut on you.
Big crushers come down from the ceiling.
It’s a great tube of Pringles of a game that deserves a good scronch.
Especially if you have a high tolerance for extremely hard platforming.
