"Uncle Chop&s;s Rocket Shop is a simulative roguelite as ambitious as it is original, perhaps a little too brutal for its own learning curve but packed with quality content to offer. Recommended on handheld systems (Switch, Steam Deck)."

"Uncle Chop&s;s Rocket Shop blends simulator-esque puzzle solving with a roguelike framework. The result is an often tedious slog that requires the utmost patience, a laser-focused attention span, and a love for tinkering. Put simply, at the end of a …"
