Great for team-building and social gatherings, making it perfect for connecting with friends or coworkers.
Easy to set up, as only one person needs to own the game, allowing for accessibility in group play.
Hilarious and entertaining, with a variety of clips that encourage creative humor and laughter among players.

Language barrier may hinder enjoyment, as all scenes are in English, requiring players to have at least intermediate proficiency.
The novelty can wear off quickly, leading to repetitive gameplay if played too often.
Some players find the text-to-speech voice and the game's mocking of low-scoring players to be off-putting.

- “Like many others, I'd love a function that enables you to easily add your own clips, but also a function that lets you save the filled-in clips to your device because we often get hilarious results and would love to watch them back without having to set up an external recording.”
