Anyone else pick this up, came out a couple days ago. £14.99 on steam, bought it not expecting much but played it 5hrs straight last night.

It's erm.. Bizarre! Featuring little nekkid midgets who now populate the earth which has been flooded by the "gods". Humans are all but extinct and your one of the last alive. Gameplay is like a bizarre lemming 3rd person sandbox with elements of the incredible machine. Graphics surprisingly decent and keeps my 4850 on it's toes.

Highly recommend it for the cash!

Saw this and I love quirky game so long as they're good. Didn't find any reviews and was too much to impulse buy.

Is there enough content + variety there, how does it play etc? Trailers are very vague as to the nature be it aimed at kids or a more mature adience.

A link would be good...

Yeah, was playing it yesterday, really good. It's like banjo kazooie nuts and bolts but completely hatstand. One of the guys at rock paper shotgun is working on a wot I think if you're waiting for a review.
Don't watch the trailer, whatever you do.

Storyline is absolutely bananas (as in bonkers) but it's quite quirky and captivating. It's got that "Just a little bit more" type of gameplay hence why I was still up at 3am playing it when I had to get up at 7am!

I'd say it's not aimed at any particular age group although I wouldn't say it's for kids. clippas also right, it's a bit like banjo kazooie nuts and bolts in terms of having to build your own vehicles and the vehicles are very important in it as your designs can be critical to getting it right. In term of the "Campaign" it's not overly long, around Portal 2 length (6-7hrs) but there's a sandbox mode which is where you can mess around with vehicles etc so considering it's half the price of Portal 2 can't complain too much!
