Overall, it offers a unique blend of humor that resonates deeply, making it a memorable experience.
“Also, the way you slowly devolve from a perfect circular being to a crying, chain smoking, inappropriately clapping emotional mess who voluntarily reeks of feces over the course of your pill bender is frankly hilarious.”
“At times hilarious.”
“It's imperfections just make the game all the more perfect; I have never laughed so much playing a game. It is both an experiment of exploring human emotion and equally a toy box where I can create beautifully funny screenshots.”
