The main game leads the player down a series of areas ending in a boss fight, although the game contains much more secret and supplementary content. It was released in early access for Microsoft Windows on 24 September 2019. Noita left early access as the 1.0 version was released on 15 October 2020.

Runs well on modern hardware.

I don't do many reviews, this is a masterpiece. I have no life and this is how I choose to spend my limitless time. More than difficult enough for masochists. I just got teleported next to an angry frog. Plenty of replay value for the more fiscally responsible gents. Biomes mostly layed out in same way but randomised loot, geology etc Plenty of mods but really doesn't need it. You complete the game, then realise you've essentially just finished the tutorial Figuring out how the wand system works will kill you, your death will be interesting and sometimes very sparkly I feel the need to wipe my chin but it is truely a magnificent game and I cannot speak highly enough of it
I keep coming back to Noita. It is my comfort game. Not quite sure that that says about me ;)
I have never seen a game that encourages creativity and 'breaking' the world to this extent before. There is always more to explore, more to learn, and genuine secrets that people have yet to figure out. This is the most replayable and exciting roguelike I have played and if it clicks with you... oh boy does it click. It's not for everyone, certainly, and some of the secrets are a bit obtuse, but I won't say they're unfair, I'm just an idiot. I definitely recommend getting this if you can, give it a shot!
