The monetization practices in Hede/puzzle games have been criticized for exploiting unethical tactics, such as flooding Steam with low-quality asset flips and scams, often using fake accounts to generate misleading reviews. These games typically feature poorly translated content and are released in clusters shortly after launch, indicating a pattern of cash grabs rather than genuine development.
“Hede/puzzle games have shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab.”
“They're all written in either Russian or broken English, appear at almost exactly the same time, very shortly after the game launched on Steam, and all have a direct Steam purchase of the game.”
“The accounts are used consistently to write fake reviews for asset flips and other cash grabs/scams.”
