Which potato-peeling game is this, and what happens after the knife?

Identify the game from its Steam listing, then decide whether you want the hand-peeling, depot logistics and story choices shown in the trailer. This guide avoids ending spoilers.

Match the stream or trailer to the right game

For the game with the depot, puppy and Golden Horn Studios trailer, look for Potato Please on Steam, app 5266240. A separate game called 1,000,000 Potatoes has its own itch.io page. Players asked about the resemblance in the developer's trailer thread. Check the name, studio and app number before following a control or save-file guide.

Papers, Please is a different title by Lucas Pope about a border inspector. If a guide tells you how to check passports, you have reached that game. Return to the Golden Horn Studios listing for the depot and potato-peeling game.

From working one potato to moving a batch

A Reddit player asked if the job includes logistics. At the start you cut by hand. Later you move raw stock from the yard, feed the peelers and route batches through the depot. Follow a single batch if an objective stalls: raw pile to input, machine input to output, then peeled stock to the water inlet. Watch the delivery counter when the batch reaches it.

Automation changes how you spend the shift. A player who enjoyed the knife still used the bench between machine loads. Check for an empty hopper or a backlog before settling into another hand batch.

Can the worker sleep between days?

The bedroom behind the supply counter and a morning production summary were proposed by a player in the Steam suggestions forum. In the documented PC shift, you continue working through the queue of assignments until the quota is complete. The black report with elapsed time and production totals appears after the ending. To stop playing for the night, make a manual save from the pause menu and check the slot. On your next session, load that shift. Walking to the door by the shop does not advance a day or refill the potato yard.

Find the song list and the workshop credits from the menu

A player asked for a list of the music on the hangar radio. From the title screen, open Credits. On the card that names the programmer and artist, use the lower-right third-party button. Switch from the 3D models tab to Music. The captured menu shows both tabs. It does not identify which track is currently on your radio. For a prop credit, stay on 3D models instead. Find the object by its English asset name. Its card gives a creator, a source and the listed license. The pictured kitchen set credits soidev; the garden hose credits Brandon Westlake. These entries can have different licenses.

Check the title before searching the terminal for a fryer

The Steam description for 1,000,000 POTATOES, developed by Fighting Dreamers, lists fryers, mashers and distillers. Golden Horn Studios' Potato Please uses the Depot 5 Journal and a terminal with crank machinery, automatic peelers, gantries and crane equipment. If your HUD names Depot 5, follow the device on your numbered assignment. Finishing more Potato Please upgrades does not unlock the other game's advertised machines.
