There’s an allusion to them being more than just business partners, but The Gunk is about the story more than it is the characters. Landing on an unknown planet, Rani and Becks are partners.

This is one of those titles where “thanks for playing” appears at the end of the rather short list of credits where a lot of the names repeat. When the credits rolled I didn’t feel hard done by, I felt as though a metaphorical hand had been extended for me to shake. That length, while irksome to some, is a boon for Game Pass subscribers and people who prefer shorter experiences these days. It’s one of the least pretentious experiences of 2021, with simple to grasp controls, motifs, and a runtime of well under under five hours.
