👍 Strengths

177 reviews call it fun and entertaining, and some say it is hilarious with friends, especially when the call recordings are replayed at the end of each shift. Multiplayer ranks 167th of 642 and appears in 43% of reviews. 69 enjoy the chaos of playing together, though a few wish there were more direct teamwork instead of everyone working alone at a desk. 8 credit developers who push patches and hotfixes quickly and listen to feedback.

👎 Where it falls short

Tech & Support appears in 40% of reviews and ranks 1083rd of 1399. 43 report bugs and crashes, from speech recognition that freezes or hears the wrong words to a process that keeps running after the game is closed. 28 say the AI rarely understands Polish, Russian or German speakers, leaving calls confusing. 25 find the loop repetitive, with some saying it turns stale after a couple of hours. Gameplay ranks 1305th of 1396, and Content Volume ranks 1192nd of 1351.
