About the Game



Famously featured in the critically lauded Kickstarter smash and #1 Amazon best-seller, "George's Gaming Grimoire", POO PUSHER chronicles the life of a lowly employee at POOCORP.

Originally thought lost, POO PUSHER was produced for the extremely rare SYZYGY16 system in 1981, but never saw release due to all major retailers refusing to stock it due to it's focus on scatalogical chaos. BUMFUN GAMING have secured the rights to release this classic title in 2024, and bring it to you in it's pure, unadulterated form. Emulation is all taken care of, and you can now enjoy a forgotten classic on your Windows system (versions for other systems coming soon).

Start a new and exciting job and try to work your way to the top in this arcade-action title inspired by Tapper, and going to the toilet.

Thrill as umpteen stools a minute come blasting along the conveyor belts towards you! Gasp as you push each poo back up into the bottom that it came from! Face the Sisyphean task of stemming a never-ending tide of turds, then do it all over again!

Each day presents a new location, and a new challenge* as you climb the POOCORP ladder to success.

Will you discover the alchemical secret at the heart of POOCORP, or will you disgrace yourself and turn in an UNSATISFACTORY PERFORMANCE?

NB: This game is in English, but there are two controls - up and down. It's extremely easy to play and there is no ingame audio or written narrative, so it's perfectly possible to be played by people who do not speak English.

*Well, the speed and frequency of the poos changes. And sometimes there are bats. And signs. Each day is basically "more of the same", though, but this only reinforces the game's ability to convey the drudgery of a menial working environment.
