story
28 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe game's story is described as a bizarre and convoluted adventure that blends humor with elements of horror, featuring a mix of tongue-in-cheek dialogue and off-the-wall scenarios. While some players appreciate its unique charm and thematic depth, others find it irritating and poorly executed, with issues like muddy visuals and mediocre writing detracting from the overall experience. Overall, the narrative is polarizing, appealing to those who enjoy quirky storytelling but leaving others frustrated by its lack of coherence and depth.
“The gameplay is interesting and surprisingly fun, the atmosphere, graphic design, and sound design are great, and the storyline is completely off the wall.”
“Nonetheless, this is actually a nice little story with a few good laughs and some interesting characters and reasonings behind each of their actions.”
“Above everything, I quite enjoyed the story and the dry sense of humor of the developers. Definitely made my day.”
“The satirizing design has its charm, but the color palette is really muddy, the game is way too dark to look at and the story is (while intentionally dumb and tongue-in-cheek) convoluted, irritating, and riddled with typos.”
“I'm sure if I was into the storyline, it might be a slightly different answer, but I can't see a story that will make me want to play the bland fights over and over while also exploring the same place looking for the next path that didn't seem like a way I could go before the fight.”
“Downsides, if they matter to you, as they did to me - the story is all over the place, could have done with being simpler, the design aspects on the villains are sometimes a little corny, and content warnings for issues around biblical-style punishments of women and negative views of sex.”
