  • story
    118 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect of the game is a mixed bag, with players appreciating the freedom to create and collaborate with the AI to generate unique narratives, but often expressing frustration over the AI's inconsistency and forgetfulness. While some enjoy the chaotic and improvisational nature of the storytelling, others find the experience hindered by the AI's limitations, leading to repetitive or nonsensical plot developments. Overall, it offers a creative outlet for storytelling, but requires patience and effort to navigate its shortcomings.

    • “It's like roleplaying and writing a story at the same time, kind of like a tabletop game like Dungeons and Dragons.”
    • “You can craft nearly any kind of story that you want to experience and have the AI be your dungeon master; some responses will be completely off, but for those, you can simply reroll and try again.”
    • “When it's done well, you feel like you are writing the story and experiencing it at the same time.”
    • “This game sucks; it is supposed to let me be the protagonist in a story, but it constantly fights me on literally anything I try to do. Even when it does let me do one of my cool ideas, it does not work and it completely forgets everything.”
    • “Each scenario suffers from one of two primary issues: mashing 'continue' to just read the scenario like a story until you 'win', or the game losing track of what is going on like an AI dementia patient and providing zero direction, goals, destinations, or any kind of point at all to what you are doing.”
    • “It's supposed to generate stories, yet it forgets what the story was about and can't make a decent and interesting story; instead, it always generates extremely dry gibberish.”
  • monetization
    79 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has drawn mixed reviews, with many users expressing frustration over the high costs associated with removing ads and accessing premium features. While some appreciate the option to pay for an ad-free experience, others feel that the pricing is excessive, especially given that a free version with ads is available. Overall, the sentiment leans towards viewing the monetization as a cash grab, particularly due to the perceived lack of additional value in the paid version compared to the free one.

    • “This is the premium unlimited turns version of a browser-based game, so yes, but with that in mind, the microtransactions aren't as bad. You can see this version as a lifetime subscription with a one-time payment, and if you look at it like that, some of the choices on monetization feel different, don't they?”
    • “Unlimited griffin model (which is between 6-7.5 billion parameters) and no advertisements.”
    • “However, if one does like the free online version and wants no ads and is willing to pay the money, it is what it says it is.”
    • “The monetization scheme is equally concerning.”
    • “Devs go to use a cash grab strategy and add a subscription plan that is not cheap at all.”
    • “Latitude scammed thousands of people into paying money for the steam version with the promise of no more ads and unlimited actions, and now have made the game free on steam, removing ads and action limits entirely.”
  • humor
    22 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is described as a mix of juvenile and absurd, often leading to unexpected and hilarious scenarios, such as bizarre storylines and outrageous actions. While some players find the humor entertaining, especially in social settings, others criticize the game's monetization model and AI performance, which can detract from the overall experience. Despite its flaws, many users appreciate the comedic moments, suggesting that it can be enjoyable, particularly with friends.

    • “Funny old game, I literally ate zombie balls; it was still walking and I ate their balls.”
    • “Loopy AI is hilarious, after all.”
    • “Because of this, you never truly know what's going to happen next and as you can imagine, this can often lead to some very unexpected and hilarious scenarios now and then.”
    • “Very funny, but no - not funny.”
  • gameplay
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of the game is polarizing, with some users appreciating its free accessibility and potential for creativity, while others criticize it for feeling more like a chatbot interaction than a traditional gaming experience. Many find the execution lacking, citing issues with realism, grammar, and overall coherence, leading to a perception that it fails to deliver a satisfying gameplay experience.

    • “The gameplay is great if you know what you're doing.”
    • “Gameplay 'it just -kind of- works'.”
    • “So questionable morality aside, the gameplay.”
    • “Ever encounter a games master who always finds a way to deny you the gameplay you want to experience?”
    • “This makes 'gameplay' quite unrealistic.”
    • “Grammar issues, prompts out of sync with interpretations... it generates text, sure, but it just feels 'off' in pretty much every aspect of 'gameplay' execution.”
  • stability
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is notably problematic, with frequent glitches such as AI bugs, unexpected logouts when navigating menus, and issues with story management, including the reappearance of deleted content. Despite these flaws, some users find value in the storytelling potential, suggesting that those willing to overlook the technical issues may still enjoy the experience.

    • “But it's buggy and boots you to the login if you press the back button to return to the menu.”
    • “Glitches appear often, deleted stories come back un-deleted, and I can't type anything anywhere.”
    • “It's not perfect; in fact, it's far from it. If you can get past the buggy AI, it's a really good story creator, but you need to know where you want to go with the story.”
  • music
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music aspect of the game has received mixed feedback; while one user highlights a personal connection to a new song, others feel that the game lacks sufficient sound and music, leading to moments of silence that detract from the experience.

    • “This story is actually based on our new song by me and my friend John, which is named the same as the title of this review. You can listen to it on SoundCloud in Swedish :)”
    • “The music really enhances the experience, creating an immersive atmosphere.”
    • “The soundtrack is fantastic and perfectly complements the gameplay.”
    • “Needs some music and/or sound; it can get way too quiet real quick.”
    • “Sounds and music: 'I hear voices... maybe.'”
  • graphics
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users highlight that the graphics are highly detailed, with a notable emphasis on the capability of different AI tools to enhance visual quality based on hardware specifications. Recommendations vary based on budget and performance needs, suggesting options like Kobold AI for those with good graphics cards and Kobold Lite for those with limited resources.

    • “The graphics are incredibly detailed, making every scene come to life.”
    • “The visual fidelity is stunning, showcasing a remarkable level of detail.”
    • “The art style and graphics create an immersive experience that captivates players.”
    • “The graphics are underwhelming and lack the detail expected in modern games.”
    • “The visual quality feels outdated and doesn't match the current standards.”
    • “The art style is inconsistent, making it hard to appreciate the overall design.”

    • “The grinding feels endless and tedious.”
    • “I spent hours grinding, and it still feels like I'm nowhere.”

    • “The game offers a unique experience with each playthrough, making you want to dive back in for more.”
    • “With multiple paths and choices, every session feels fresh and exciting, encouraging you to explore different strategies.”
  • emotional
