Fun and relaxing game. Recommend to anyone who wants to chill a bit after a long day at work (especially if you work as a cable guy)

Game is very solid, relaxing and challenging at once, definitely worth spending some hours on if one likes puzzle games the likes of minimetro, subara city and similar. Only improvement it could really do with is the ability to zoom out further, hope it might be added in the future.

I don't know where these developers get off forcing themselves onto my review, so I'll be brief. - Some workers don't return to their desks after you set up their stations. - New employees or desks drop in randomly, often severing cables you've already laid out. - Why are we forced to attach cables to servers only in the original room? Why can't we buy more servers, to put in rooms that are far from the original one?
