Outcore: Desktop Adventure

Worth buying? What 300 Steam reviews say.

Overwhelmingly Positive2022

US Steam price, checked 2 h ago

The verdict

A short, free, funny and creative fourth-wall-breaking game that plays with your desktop and files, with a touching story. Skip it if you dislike platformers, fiddly controls, or play on Linux.

Great for

Fans of Undertale, OneShot and DDLC who like meta, desktop-messing games with humor and a touching story

Main risk

Most of the game is a platformer with awkward controls and hard bosses, and desktop features can bug out or softlock

What changed in the last 30 days

The few recent negative reviews complain about a laser platforming section and a stuck Memory Loader loop. Evidence is thin, so low confidence.

Free and absurdly high value

“Honestly, this game should not be free. This was a genuinely amazing experience and had the same emotional impact on me as Undertale and Doki Doki Literature Club.”
