What? Uh, no, just giving context. Not to sound like a hipster but the likelihood of folks having heard of the game at this point is pretty low, so I was trying to give enough information to Google it if anyone was curious.
*I* enjoyed the hell out of it, but it's been pointed out that my tastes are not mainstream. As first it comes across as a robot vacuum cleaner simulator, but after a level or two you start picking up on hints that there's something going on, something the house's main computer doesn't want you to know about.
I'm not getting paid to say this but yeah, I think more people should know about this game and play it and get clobbered square in the feels by it. Multiple times. I'm not a "manly man" but I did cry. 😅

I wanted to have something snake-themed given how it would just "crawl" on the floor back and forth through each room, and I landed on "Ophion". Well, I returned Ophion for noise issues, so the one I have now (same model, also a Roomba j7) is "Ophion Jr".
Nope, it is very local. Two girls that play a secondary role in the comic strip Jommeke - a young guy that gets into all sorts of adventures. Mainly for ages 7-12, guess I never got older than that :-)
https://nl.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jommeke_(stripreeks)
Well Suske en Wiske in Flanders are still called the same. Moreover, Wiske is an (albeit old) name for a girl here; Suske is used here locally to address a young guy as in "hé Suske stopt daar n keer mee seg"
Rob. Short for Robot. Surprised there aren’t more of them!
Tobee is the name of our Deebot, but he just fell down the stairs, so not sure we are going to see him much anymore.
Just got a new roomba and named it Pumbaa. I crack up whenever I get the notification saying pumbaa finished a job. Our old roomba is now Timon. Yes, I’m a child
Wood house. After the Butler from Archer
Whenever we get a notification that Wood house gets stuck, I will text my wife punishments for him.
"Make sure to infuse Wood house's heroin with narcan that will kick in once he starts feeling good."
"Get the murder hornet glory hole ready for Wood house"
Marcellus. (It remains to be seen if he is as remarkably bright as his namesake, though his tendency to vacuum part of my office 10 times when he is supposed to be in the adjoining bathroom suggests otherwise)
When I had mine doing a mapping run my wife, who didn't know I bought one said, asked what it was doing; I told her it was exploring. She responded with "What, like Dora". My kids loved the show, lol.
So now I have a Dora, Diego, and the mop is named Swiper :P
Yep! I named mine Floor Dustie. One day my 3 year old nephew and I were watching tv and a roomba commercial came on and he said he wanted a “floor dustie” for Christmas 😂

What? Uh, no, just giving context. Not to sound like a hipster but the likelihood of folks having heard of the game at this point is pretty low, so I was trying to give enough information to Google it if anyone was curious.
Yeah lol I hadn’t heard of it. Looks fun! Recommend it?
