  • story
    51 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story, centered around a humorous quest for a pilsner in a quirky town, has received mixed reviews.

    • “I can say that this game is really well made with the graphics, music, and story.”

    • “Really impressed with this game; it looks and plays so well, and the premise and story are hilarious.”
    • “The story is the definition of boring and nothing really good ever happens.”
    • “The game obviously wants to imitate the genre classics from the 90's, but it only manages to do so in the technical department; meaning you can't fast travel from screen to screen and the game eats up a lot more of your time than it should. Its poor script, bad humor, lame unfinished story, and bad game design make this a highly defective, sad imitation of the games from the glory days of point-and-click adventures.”
    • “I also feel the story could’ve been expanded just a tiny bit.”

    • “The biggest flaw of this game is that the gameplay is, in essence, linear.”
    • “Just feels like it's missing a true ending and a full exploration of the drinking mechanic (which I'm aware is on the way but still missing in this initial offering).”
    • “If you are seeking an easier experience, there is an in-game hint mechanic, but the hints are pretty vague and not always available.”
