humor24 positive mentions
  • Unique and exquisite hand-drawn art style that fits the absurd and surreal tone perfectly.
  • Hilarious and distinctly British humor with clever wordplay, funny dialogues, and memorable characters.
  • Engaging exploration and interaction with a large supermarket filled with secrets, puzzles, and quirky side quests.
  • Humor and tone may be off-putting or hit-or-miss for some players due to crass, dark, or mean-spirited elements.
  • Gameplay is simple with light puzzle design, lacking depth or challenge for players seeking more complexity.
  • Navigation can be confusing at times and some parts of the game feel repetitive or uneven in quality.

    The humor in the game is characterized by distinctly British, dark, and absurd comedy, featuring a dry-narrator with witty, often scatological and offbeat jokes that blend gross-out, horror, and observational humor. It relies heavily on quirky dialogues, funny product commentaries, and eccentric characters, appealing to those who enjoy nonsensical, distinctive, and sometimes edgy humor. While it may be hit or miss for some, players who appreciate surreal, British-style comedy and irreverent jokes will find it consistently entertaining and laugh-out-loud funny.

    • “There’s a narrator with very dark humor who comments on your purchases, and sometimes the lines are written in such a depressing way that it somehow becomes hilarious.”
    • “Look, I'm not one to find British humour that focuses on celebrities and pop culture funny, so when I found out this game features a sale narrator giving dry descriptions of certain items and reasoning for why you should buy them (along with some dad and toilet jokes in between), I knew I was going to get a lot of laugh-out-loud moments out of it.”
    • “There's so much dialogue and funny commentary in this game to immerse yourself in for a while; I spent the first hour of my game just browsing all the products and laughing about what they had to say and people's stories.”

    The gameplay is accessible and combines elements of visual novels and point-and-click puzzles, offering some fun and satisfying moments. However, it lacks depth and longevity, resulting in a muddled and disappointing experience that falls short of its potential.

    • “Gameplay-wise, it’s somewhere between a visual novel and a point-and-click game, making it very accessible.”
    • “It offers some fun point-and-click gameplay, satisfying puzzles, and kooky styling.”
    • “The game has unique and surreal vibes with bizarre but satisfying gameplay that could make for a really fun experience.”
    • “If you wanted a game with a long runtime or riveting gameplay, it isn't here.”
    • “I could go along with the concept of 'supermarket simulator' but it would require some actual gameplay.”
    • “Something is missing... the gameplay.”

  • graphics

    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics feature a unique, hand-drawn art style that is both naive and quirky, contributing to a distinctly British and surreal atmosphere. While the simplistic, childish visuals suit the game's tone, the crude humor may not appeal to everyone. Overall, the artwork is charming and complements the challenging puzzles and eccentric characters well.

    • “The art style is exquisite and most definitely unique, with each item rendered in a drawing style that can only be described as naive and innocent.”
    • “Its unique art style is only matched by its strange cast of characters.”
    • “The puzzles themselves are quite challenging but very enjoyable to solve, accompanied by some very nice artwork and jazzy supermarket music.”
    • “At its heart, it is a true British experience that can be summed up as crude, both through its art style reminiscent of vulgar childish drawings and its deadpan humour.”
    • “The overall tone is quite immature, and while this works well for the hand-drawn and simplistic aesthetic, it does not sit well in terms of the so-called jokes.”
    • “It tries to be sophisticated and deep in a silly way; the main reason it uses a surreal artwork.”

    The story is a quirky and humorous exploration of supermarket life, featuring eccentric characters and comical narratives attached to everyday items. It blends light horror elements with witty dialogue and zany quests, creating an engaging and entertaining point-and-click experience.

    • “Supermarket Times is a wacky, zany, and bizarre look at supermarket life through the lives of colorful characters and challenging fetch quest puzzles.”
    • “Cool humorous point & click quest with horror elements.”
    • “For example, there was one moment when a mother kept going on and on telling me a story about how her son refuses to eat fruit and vegetables and will only eat processed meat and only processed meat, nothing else. She tried to bake a pie for him, but he wouldn't eat it even if it only contained processed meat.”
    • “Almost every item on the shelves has a comical story attached to it narrated by our northern friend Mr. Geordie.”
