Hover a garbage disposal over a swirling sink of leftovers, bugs and cutlery. Grind it all, drop the haul through a plinko for cash, buy upgrades and grow the drain, one size at a time, from a kitchen sink to a sewage plant.
Feed the drain. Grow it. Swallow the kitchen.Move your grinder over the food swirling round the sink. There is nothing to click: whatever is under it gets chewed up. Every scrap pays, and every scrap makes the drain a little bigger.
When the tap stops, your haul drops through the Pipeworks, a plinko of pipes and pegs, and comes out as cash for the next upgrade. Then turn the tap back on.What's in the sinkSix kitchens a run: a kitchen sink, a farmhouse sink, a restaurant dish pit, a food court, the sewer main and a treatment plant.
Food that fights back: batteries that zap their neighbours, mouldy fruit that leaves a stink cloud, greasy amber leftovers worth triple, cans that burst, and rats and gulls that steal your dinner.
A clog in every kitchen, and a boss fatberg to break before you move on. At the very end: the Big Clog.
Almost 200 upgrades on a branching board: sharper teeth, a wider grinder, chain reactions, grease fires, a longer tap.
Keys and toolboxes turn up in the sink and upgrade the Pipeworks.
The Lost & Found: 24 odd things people dropped down the sink, each with its own bonus. A Scrapbook of 132 things you have ground. 35 goals.
Lay a pipe when you are done and play again somewhere new: down at the Harbour there is a fish market where the tide comes and goes, and a cruise ship galley.A short oneA first run takes two to three hours. Play with a mouse, a finger, the keyboard or a gamepad. Tired hands? Turn on Auto-grind in Settings.
