Employee Recycling Center Reviews

According to the store page, Employee Recycling Center is about a poor employee who was left trapped and abandoned by their co-workers after an accident in the factory where they work. Other than that, no further information is given, and there is zero storytelling within the game itself, which only lasts 8-10 minutes at best if one attempts to achieve everything that there is to do.

At the start, you put a cube on a large red button that's on the floor, after that you grab a hand and put it on a scanner that allows you access to another room; wherein you press a red button that unlocks 500 some achievements. Then, you can take a mop and clean up some blood, disintegrate what's left of a decapitated human body, and destroy the 3 barrels in the game for a few more achievements. That's it. There's no pause menu, no setting options, and the only way to exit the game is by closing it from the task bar. There's one short audio loop, and the textures are PS2-era grade.

With literally nothing more to say about Employee Recycling Center, it's obvious that this title is just Idea Cabin's poor attempt at a cash grab asset-flip, while suckering in achievement hunters with easy trophy gains and using the alluring $1.09 CAD price tag. With this concise review, you know now what exactly to expect from the in-game content, so it's your choice whether or not you want to spend your coffee funds on something that probably took 5 hours at most to develop. An extremely lazy release, with "free DLC coming soon!". At least the ZUP! games had some substance, but this is just horrendous.

Rating: 0.5/5.0 - Abysmal, avoid it like the plague.

Released in 2017 from Idea Cabin comes Employee Recycling Centre. You play as an employee who was left behind during an emergency, and are locked inside your work place. Covered in blood and bodies, you are left with nothing to do but clean up after the accident.

When I first saw this, I thought it was going to be like Viscera Cleanup Detail, just a cheaper knock off version, and decided to get it as a bit of fun before I got Viscera Cleanup Detail.

This was nothing like Viscera Cleanup Detail. I assume in some ways it is, from the gameplay I’ve see, but this is a really simple game. You open a door, press a button, clean up some blood and bodies, destroy some barrels, and you’re done. That’s it. That’s the game. Luckily, this only takes under an hour to complete.

I was honestly bored out of my mind playing this. I thought there would at least be some jump scares, or something like that, considering that this is classed as a horror game, but there was nothing. There was no audio other than the sound of footsteps, and the buzz of the evacuation machine are the only things to keep you entertained; oh and the brushing sounds of the mop.

This game is pretty well made, in honesty. It runs quite fast but that’s pretty much all the positive things there are about this game. Good for achievement hunters – pressing a button gets you 500 achievements – but other than that, there’s nothing that makes this game worth playing.
