Both effects target the slowest part of sorting: finding a specific shape in a specific material and color. Our dice sets guide covers how to spot each shape without help.

Are the floppy disks part of the story?

Yes. The store page says the disks are certainly useful, and who keeps leaving them for you is another question. Combined with the stay-out-of-the-basement warning, they are one of the main hooks of the Story Mode mystery.

  • Disks are tied to days passing, a Story Mode feature.
  • The developer has not said whether Chill Mode includes disk skills.
  • Story elements are optional, so you can use the skills without chasing the plot.
