- “Great game with great graphics.”

- “The game is very expensive for the price; the gameplay and graphics are on the same level as a poorly made phone app.”

- “I had a lot of fun playing and reading the story for this game.”

The monetization strategy of these developers is heavily criticized for relying on unethical practices, such as repackaging premade game templates and assets into low-quality products that are marketed as original games. This approach is seen as a cash grab, with accusations of using shell accounts to obscure their activities and exploit the Steam platform for profit.
- “These guys do nothing but copy premade game templates and game tutorials, fill out a few things, stamp out basic levels using the construction kit templates, slap on an asset-flipped set of sprites/assets, and dump them on Steam and into cheap, nasty shovelware game bundles as cash grabs.”
- “Trying to get paid for someone else's game templates and assets... at best, this is shovelware; at worst, it's a scam and cash grab.”
- “Big Black Bear, The Storytelling Studio, ThinkofGames, and ImperiumGame have shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab, through this account or through closely linked or alternate accounts.”
