  • The game features a unique concept of a mob boss trying to survive while managing limited resources, which can be engaging and fun once you understand the mechanics.
  • The art style and writing are praised for their quality, creating an immersive atmosphere that enhances the gameplay experience.
  • The game offers significant replayability with different scenarios and outcomes based on player decisions, making each playthrough feel distinct.
  • The game suffers from frustrating bugs, including freezing issues and a lack of clear feedback, which can lead to a trial-and-error experience that feels more like guesswork than strategy.
  • The real-time mechanics and cluttered UI can overwhelm players, making it difficult to manage tasks effectively and often resulting in missed opportunities.
  • Many players find the steep learning curve and limited guidance to be off-putting, leading to confusion and frustration rather than enjoyment.
  • story
    42 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is noted for its depth and complexity, with seemingly minor events contributing to the overall narrative and offering clues. However, many players find the gameplay mechanics frustrating, as the time constraints and random clicking hinder their ability to engage with the story fully. While some appreciate the potential for replayability and varied scenarios, others feel that the chaotic nature of the gameplay detracts from the storytelling experience.

    • “Great playstyle and superb UI, with a great story and magnificent replayability.”
    • “I personally play games for a story, the other world with different rules and characters, where I do different things than I do in real life.”
    • “The story has a lot of depth to it; even seemingly irrelevant events build the story and offer clues.”
    • “This game probably has a story, but it gives me no time to even attempt to look for that story since you just have to kind of randomly click buttons for no obvious reason.”
    • “And if you take time to read the story, you are guaranteed to lose the game.”
    • “Idea of the game is nice, but days are over before I even finished answering the calls I receive, and I rarely have time for missions or reading through information carefully.”
  • gameplay
    19 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is characterized by unique mechanics and an engaging art style, but is marred by significant issues such as lag, superficial dialogues, and poorly thought-out mechanics that can lead to gameplay-breaking bugs. While the fast-paced and addictive nature of the game allows for multiple scenarios and replayability, the cluttered UI and frustrating difficulty can detract from the overall experience. Despite these drawbacks, some players find the detective elements and concept enjoyable.

    • “It is quite a fast gameplay, which I was surprised to discover when I played my first couple of games.”
    • “Fun gameplay and concept.”
    • “Your typical game only lasts an hour or two, but the gameplay, while simple, is addicting, and the story can play out in several different ways, with several different scenarios.”
    • “So this game has gameplay-breaking bugs.”
    • “This simultaneous events ruined the gameplay for me.”
    • “[Cluttered UI makes it difficult to see more precise locations, real-time mechanics that sabotage the player at every turn, frustrating difficulty that relies on a repetitive loop of trial-and-error.]”
  • graphics
    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's graphics are generally praised for their unique cartoon style and appealing design, contributing positively to the overall experience. While some players appreciate the art's creativity and character design, others note that the visuals are one of the few standout features in an otherwise mixed game. The art style has been described as a blend of whimsical and dark themes, reflecting a more serious take on the game's narrative.

    • “Excellent graphics, and the dialogue is pretty good too.”
    • “I like the graphics and sound design; some characters are really lovable (good boy Scooter has officially won my heart).”
    • “This game has good-looking cartoon graphics and an interesting idea in theory, but that is about all that is really good in this game.”
    • “The graphics are reminiscent of a style that feels like the graphic artists of Humongous Entertainment were stricken with clinical depression, opting to forsake childhood in favor of depicting a world that is stressful and terrible.”
    • “The art style is a bizarre mix of furry sci-fi and a semi-randomized plot, which ultimately detracts from the overall experience.”
    • “The visuals are disappointing, lacking the charm and vibrancy one would expect, making the game feel more bleak than engaging.”
  • stability
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from significant stability issues, with frequent freezes occurring at the start of each day, leading to a frustrating experience for players despite its interesting concept.

    • “But the game freezes at the start of every day.”
    • “Interesting concept, frustratingly buggy.”
  • music
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is characterized by a suspenseful and moody soundtrack, which enhances the overall atmosphere and contributes positively to the gaming experience.

    • “Suspenseful and sporting a moody soundtrack, this should be a good game.”
  • grinding
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious, particularly due to the lack of user interface improvements like keyboard shortcuts, which could streamline repetitive tasks and reduce the need for excessive mouse interactions.

    • “Hilariously enough, I not only won a game where I was wrong.”
  • atmosphere
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's atmosphere is characterized by a gritty and dismal tone that effectively complements its premise, enhancing the overall experience. Players appreciate the intriguing concepts and systems of accusation and association that further immerse them in this dark setting.

    • “The gritty atmosphere and dismal premise perfectly fit the tone of the game, creating an immersive experience with cool concepts and intricate systems.”
    • “The haunting sound design and detailed environments draw you into a world that feels alive and unsettling.”
    • “Every corner of the game is filled with tension, making the atmosphere thick with anticipation and dread.”
    • “The gritty atmosphere and dismal premise fit the tone of the game, but it often feels overwhelming and oppressive.”
