Sprunki Phase 1000: Because Why Not
Phase 1000. Let that sink in. A thousand phases of dragging little cartoon characters around to make beeps and boops. At this point I'm not even sure if this is an achievement or a cry for help.
When I saw this existed, my first thought was "wait, did they actually make 999 versions before this, or is the 1000 just for show?" Then I remembered there's stuff like Sprunki Phase 57 scratch and Phase 100 and... yeah okay there are a lot.
It's 2:30 PM as I write this and I'm drinking lukewarm coffee. Perfect mental state for trying to process what a "1000th phase" of anything should be.
First Impression: There are SO MANY CHARACTERS. Like, an overwhelming grid of them at the bottom. My brain just went "nope" and I clicked randomly. One of them made a sound like a rubber chicken being stepped on. Promising start.
So what makes Phase 1000 special? Honestly... I'm not sure it's "special" in any meaningful way. It's just another Sprunki game but with more stuff. More characters, more sounds, more chaos.
There's this one character—I think it's supposed to be a robot?—that makes this glitchy static noise. I kept it in my mix for way too long before realizing it was giving me a headache. Personal preference though! Maybe you'll love it.
Okay Let's Try to Be Helpful
If you've never played any Sprunki before (first of all, where have you been):
- You see characters at the bottom
- You drag them to slots at the top
- They make sounds on loops
- Different combos make different... "music"
- That's it. That's the game.
This version has like, what, 20+ characters to choose from? Maybe 30? I didn't count because who has time. It's a lot.
Fun experiment I did: try to use only characters from the left half of the grid. Result: surprisingly cohesive actually. Sounded like elevator music from an alternate dimension.
I've got a theory that some of these characters are just reskinned versions from older phases like Sprunki Phase 40 or maybe Phase 100. Can't prove it though.
Questions Nobody Asked But I'll Answer Anyway
Q: Is this better than Phase 999?
A: I haven't played Phase 999. Does it even exist? The numbering seems... optimistic.
Q: Can you save your creations?
A> Probably not within the game itself. Screenshot it? Record your screen? Yell the combination to a friend? All valid options.
Q: What's the audio quality like?
A> It's Sprunki quality. Some sounds are crisp, some sound like they were recorded through a potato. Adds to the charm maybe?
You know what this reminds me of? That time I tried to make "music" by banging on kitchen pots as a kid. Same energy: lots of noise, questionable musicality, weird sense of accomplishment.
Random Anecdote: My niece (she's 9) saw me playing this and asked "why are the characters so weird-looking?" I had no good answer. She then proceeded to make something that actually sounded pretty good. Kids, man.
Here's my hot take: the character in the bottom right corner—the one that looks like a melting ice cream cone—has the best sound. It's this watery plop noise that works with everything. 10/10 would drag again.
The character next to it? Trash. Sounds like a mosquito in a tin can.
See, this is why game reviews are subjective.
Final Verdict-ish
It's fine. It's a Sprunki game. If you've played one before, you've kinda played them all, but with different little dudes making different little noises.
The "1000" is probably just for clout. Does it feel like a milestone achievement? Not really. Does it kill 15 minutes when you're avoiding work? Absolutely.
Will there be a Phase 1001? At this rate, almost certainly. Maybe by the time you read this it already exists.
Anyway I'm done. My ears need a break. 2.5 out of 5 stars, mostly for the sheer audacity of calling it Phase 1000.
