“But... a very confusing storyline.”
“External plot points were all over the place.”
“A few things could have been a little better (some of my critiques contain spoilers, so don't read on if you haven't played already) -eugene felt a little bit awkward in this, didn't feel like an established character -charlie's backstory didn't pay off very well, they showed too much too early, too little at the end -plot twist involving good deeds and boss was confusing.”

The monetization strategy of the game primarily relies on ads, requiring players to watch them to earn tickets for making choices, which some users find excessive and disruptive. While many appreciate the option to earn tickets for free, complaints about ad loading issues and the frequency of ads have been common, leading to frustration among players. Overall, the monetization approach is seen as a necessary trade-off for a free game, but improvements in ad reliability and ticket acquisition could enhance the experience.
“The monetization in this game is well-balanced, allowing players to enjoy the experience without feeling pressured to spend money.”
“I appreciate that there are no intrusive ads, which makes the gameplay smooth and enjoyable.”
“The in-game purchases are optional and don't hinder progress, making it a fair experience for all players.”
“It's entirely justifiable to need more funds, especially if more underworld content is planned, but having pop-up ads in the beginning, a banner ad at the bottom for the whole time, the ticket system, and ads after every few choices feels honestly a bit scummy.”
“Great game, but it won't allow me to watch ads to get more tickets, rendering it unplayable for me.”
“Love the storyline and a great add-on to Underworld Office, but in order to get any tickets, I have to either pay or watch loads of ads, which isn't all that appreciated.”
