Gameplay
GameSpot says the game is an "absurdist" game based on Monty Python and X-Files humor. It tells the story of sentient corn created by government scientists who misinterpreted a memo.
During gameplay, players encounter talking objects and solve puzzles. It takes place at an abandoned farm, nearby an active underground research facility. The game also requires you to collect pieces of information.
Story
The player-character wakes up and sees three living cornstalks running away. Through various collectible items, such as an unusable English muffin, the player then unlocks a large facility door, and is warned by the speaking corn to "watch out for their brother".
As the player descends into the facility, they then learn through various notes that two brilliant yet bumbling scientists, Bob and Ted, were responsible for creating the facility and the living corn. The player then crafts a sentient Russian teddy bear, named "Vladdy", who constantly berates and insults the player. The player enters a ventilation system, and encounters two figures: The narcissistic hulking-yet-lisping albino corn scientist, the Cornacabra, and the Ruby Queen, the pink corn ruler of the other cornstalks. She then tasks the player with restoring power to the facility and raising the hooks outside on the surface. The player runs into the Cornacabra twice, during both scenarios he retreats.
Reception
Metacritic gave it a compiled score of 65/100 from 17 critics.
City Weekly liked the game and found it entertaining, but disliked the frame rate stalling.
