  • story
    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story in "Storymode" is criticized for its lack of clarity and support, making quests and crafting feel overwhelming and poorly executed.

Many hope that with community support, the game can evolve into a more cohesive experience.

    • “Perhaps one day, with much community support, storymode will become more a game and less an exercise in community frustration.”
    • “The menus are littered with options to do, the crafting menu is laid out so poorly that I don't know what to do and the quests are so badly done that I often wonder what the point of them even are.”
    • “It would be more likely that I end up never completing a quest or crafting an item.”
    • “Perhaps one day, with much community support, Storymode will become more a game and less an exercise in community frustration.”

    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics have received largely negative feedback, with many users criticizing the retro pixel art and monochrome color scheme as unattractive and unappealing.

    • “The graphics are visually appealing and enhance the overall experience.”
    • “The art style is unique and adds a lot of character to the game.”
    • “The worst part is the ugly retro pixel graphics and monochrome colors.”
    • “Sometimes, perhaps sadly, potentially good games are accompanied by terrible graphics.”
    • “Audiovisuals were not satisfying.”
  • humor
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game features a quirky and humorous tone, reminiscent of titles like Downwell and Undertale, appealing to fans of witty dialogue and funny monster names. However, some players find the humor inconsistent, with forced memes detracting from the experience, and the overall gameplay marred by bugs and visual strain. Despite these issues, the nostalgic humor in the story mode is noted as a highlight.

    • “Simply put, if you played a game like Downwell or Undertale and you liked the dialogue and humor feel of the game, you're going to like this game.”
    • “It is humorous and does its job of being a rogue-like game.”
    • “+ funny names for monsters & items”
    • “The humor in this game feels forced and unfunny, making it difficult to enjoy the experience.”
    • “The jokes and memes seem out of place and detract from the overall gameplay.”
    • “I found the humor to be lacking, with many attempts at jokes falling flat and feeling more like a chore than entertainment.”
  • music
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is generally praised for its quality and engaging soundtrack, enhancing the overall experience. However, some players feel misled by the game's difficulty, which they believe does not provide adequate rewards despite the appealing audio and visuals.

    • “Great soundtrack, very interesting visuals in terms of the 'hub' at the beginning of the game.”
    • “I really like the music in this game, but I am a bit disappointed because I feel misled.”
  • grinding
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The grinding aspect of the game is polarizing; while some players find it enjoyable and engaging, particularly those who love JRPGs and RPGs, it may not appeal to everyone.

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The stability of the game is criticized for being poor, with numerous bugs affecting the overall experience, despite the story mode's nostalgic and humorous elements.
