The monetization aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback from users, primarily due to the excessive number of ads that interrupt gameplay. Players report being forced to watch multiple long, unskippable ads before and during matches, which significantly detracts from the overall experience. While some users mention that purchasing a gold pass can eliminate ads, many feel that the current ad frequency is excessive and detrimental to enjoyment, leading to frustration and a desire for changes in the monetization strategy.
“I would definitely recommend it; it has no ads!”
“This game is awesome because there are no ads, and you sometimes level up 5 times in a row. Everyone should get this game like legit now.”
“I love this game; it has no ads and amazing characters.”
“Before entering the lobby, you need to watch about 1 minute of non-skippable ads.”
“The game has so many ads that sometimes it bugs and keeps you inside an advertisement while other players are already in the game!”
“Too many ads: in-game and in lobby, whenever I walk it always pulls me back, the whole server including me kept getting disconnected in the middle of the match.”

The game's stability is a significant concern among users, with many reporting frequent glitches, bugs, and crashes that disrupt gameplay. Common issues include freezing, character teleportation, and problems with voice chat, which collectively hinder the overall experience. While some players still find enjoyment in the game, the overwhelming number of technical issues has led to frustration and lower ratings.
“I love it! It's the best, and compared to Among Us, it's a lot better with no glitches or bugs.”
“It's good; it has a lot of game modes that make it fun. I have not experienced any glitches so far.”
“Really fun app, no ads, and there are no glitches. Splendid!”
“Really buggy, sometimes people can hear ghosts, people get randomly ejected from lobbies and games, the movement is sometimes really choppy etc... this game is absolutely infested with ads I swear, ads to even join a lobby, ads when you die, ads every time you leave a lobby just so you can rejoin a different one even though you just watched an ad for that, ads at the bottom of the screen that don't go away and interfere with pressing buttons.”
“The game has gotten worse ever since the year began, glitches, bugs and even crashes, I think this game won't be getting fixed.”
“This game is broken, the game freezes and when it freezes you have to restart the game and half the times when restarting the game you don't connect back to the lobby you were in and there is a bug that prevents guests from doing tasks and fixing lights and the only way I know how to fix it is calling a meeting.”

The graphics of the game are widely praised for their quality, polish, and unique art style, often compared favorably to "Among Us." Players appreciate the cute character designs and vibrant environments, noting that the visuals enhance the overall gameplay experience. However, some users report issues with lag and glitches that detract from the graphical experience, suggesting that while the graphics are strong, technical improvements are needed for optimal performance.
“The graphics, cutscenes, and characters are all amazing!”
“The graphics are great, and it's even better than Among Us!”
“Awesome graphics and the voice chat is very good.”
“I love this game but there is only one flaw: my phone is a Samsung A2 Core and I can play on any graphics option I want, but when a cutscene occurs, literally any cutscene, my game starts lagging and crashes 99.9% of the time. I have to pray for it not to crash because I don't know how any of the cutscenes look like. Please just do something with the cutscenes.”
“The most frustrating and problematic game. I'm not complaining about the graphics, but there are too many interruptions while playing. These must be fixed as soon as possible.”
“I wish I could lower the graphic settings because it's very laggy and I can't hear anyone when they speak. I allowed the app to access my phone contacts and it still doesn't work.”

The gameplay is generally well-received, with many players appreciating the mechanics, graphics, and unique roles that differentiate it from similar games like Among Us. However, frequent ads, glitches, and lag issues detract from the overall experience, leading to frustration among users. Suggestions for improvement include better ad placement, enhanced character customization, and the addition of more game modes and maps to keep the gameplay fresh and engaging.
“The actual gameplay mechanics and graphics are great.”
“The gameplay is fun and delightful, but there are so many children, people that mute me for no reason, and people that like to be aggressive.”
“Amazing game, the gameplay is so good yet so simple, although people will mute you for no reason sometimes, it's an amazing game.”
“Every time I try to join a match, it makes me sit through endless unskippable ads, only to instantly take me back to the home screen once it finally loads and force me to watch more ads over and over, with zero actual gameplay.”
“The gameplay is supposed to keep you playing but becomes stale the more you play it.”
“It was terrible; it was so laggy it would also close the game randomly, and if you delete the game it will not save your progress, so if you get the gold pass and you delete the game, your money will get wasted.”

The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with many players appreciating the jazzy lobby tunes and overall sound design, while others express frustration over disruptive loud music from other players and various sound glitches. Some users enjoy the ability to share music through their microphones, enhancing the social experience, but the prevalence of background noise and technical issues detracts from the enjoyment for many. Overall, while the game's music is praised for its creativity and appeal, the player interactions and sound management need improvement.
“The music and in-game art are amazing!”
“Cute graphics and neat jazzy lobby music.”
“It's really good that you can talk and you can put in music on the microphone and they can hear the music, so I will give this a 10 out of 10.”
“Even though I put my age in as 17, which is my real age, it still puts me in a lobby full of 4-10 year olds who often play loud music, disrupt the game, yell nonsensical things, and overall just make for a bad gaming experience.”
“The mute button seems to be broken; I have a good mic but something happened for me to be muted and I can't unmute nor hear anyone, but I can hear the music and sound effects.”
“I love this but can you tag bad words in chat? People cuss in the mic or yell, scream in the mic too, or troll and play loud music; it's annoying.”

Overall, while the game is compared favorably to titles like "Among Us," there are calls for improvements to make the story more distinct and immersive.
“It's like Among Us, but way better, with little animal friends and interesting story modes.”
“I'm loving the idea of the story and it's giving me a clue (the board game) vibe.”
“This game is so nice! I like it; it has a great story and the graphics are nice too!”
“I just think you should change the story of the game; it's not like Among Us.”

Overall, the game's optimization has received mixed reviews. While some players appreciate the smooth gameplay and features like built-in voice chat, many report significant performance issues, including frequent disconnects, low frame rates, and bugs that hinder the experience. There is a consensus that the game requires further optimization to improve performance across various devices and enhance user experience.
“This game has great maps and runs smoothly.”
“The game is good, but I request to add an option to turn off animations. It is useful, especially for low-end devices like mine, as it can improve performance instead of visuals. That's all, but the gameplay is good.”
“The game is better than other games like Among Us; here we have voice chat, more optimization, and more features. I'm really enjoying it, thanks developers!”
“I expected it to be a bad copy of Among Us, but it has a lot of good features. Having played a few games, I have some complaints: device optimization should be improved to make it playable on all devices. I think a bit less confusing tasks will do the job, and a better explanation about the UI for first-time players is a must. For the moment, there are a lot of bugs and connectivity issues. Other than that, I hope developers will respond with regular updates soon enough because this game has a lot of potential.”
“Intermittent disconnects, menus freezing, terrible optimization (often drops to 15fps on a decent and recent device, drains battery per minute), audio echoes and goes all over the place. For now, I think it's better if you just play Among Us; these guys clearly rushed this game to cash in on Among Us fame.”
“The connection optimization for this game is complete garbage.”

Players express a mix of emotional experiences in the game, highlighting both the wholesome interactions with others and the heartbreak of negative encounters. While many appreciate the camaraderie and fun moments, such as dancing with friends, others report feeling hurt by toxic behavior and random voting in public lobbies, which detracts from the overall enjoyment. The emotional impact is further amplified by personal connections formed during gameplay, leading to feelings of sadness when those connections are disrupted.
“The gameplay and graphics are amazing and the people you meet are so wholesome and polite or silly.”
“This is both irritating and heartbreaking.”
“I played with my friends; it was cool. I loved it! Whoever made Suspects, thank you. I used to play Among Us, but when I saw Suspects, I was curious like Curious George. We were having a dance party, and then someone killed my favorite best friend, and I cried and cried and cried because my best friend suspects heaven. My name? I tricked them; I said my name was Nevaeh, which is heaven backwards.”

However, others criticize the character designs as lacking quality, likening them to simplistic drawings.

“Graphics and character design are awesome; the maps and setting look really natural and are really well developed.”
“The character designs look bad and they look like they were drawn by a five year old.”
“Its a pretty good game not gonna lie it has its own kill animations, character design, a friend system, a voice chat, etc but it would be nice if they could improve character development.”
“I love the character design, animations, tasks, and overall the ideas the developers created to stand out from every other Among Us clone.”

Reviewers indicate that the game's replayability is limited, as it emphasizes character customization over the introduction of new maps. For those seeking a more replayable experience, alternatives like "Among Us" are recommended.
“The game offers a variety of character customization options, encouraging players to create new characters and experiment with different costumes, which enhances replayability.”
“If you're looking for a game that truly emphasizes replayability, this one stands out with its engaging mechanics and diverse gameplay experiences.”
“They focus more on creating new characters and their costumes rather than developing additional playable maps.”
“The lack of diverse gameplay options makes it hard to find motivation for a second playthrough.”
“Once you've completed the game, there's little incentive to return due to repetitive missions and limited content.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be excessive, as the primary goal is to earn costumes and items. While the game is not pay-to-win, spending money allows for easier access to these rewards, leading to frustration over the necessity of grinding.
“It's not pay to win, but the entire point of the game is to earn costumes and items. If you spend money, you can get them with no problems, so what's the point of grinding?”
“It feels very grindy.”
