  • monetization
    137 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism, with players reporting an overwhelming number of ads, including forced advertisements that disrupt gameplay. Many users express frustration over the lack of a comprehensive ad removal option, as purchasing the "no ads" feature often does not eliminate all ads, particularly those tied to rewards. While some players find the game enjoyable despite the ads, the consensus is that the monetization approach detracts from the overall experience, making it feel more like an ad farm than a fully realized game.

    • “I'd like to give it 5 stars but it won't let me buy the no ads option. Please get it fixed because this game with no ads, I'd give it 5 stars and the price for no ads is reasonable.”
    • “It's fun and addicting... it's worth 2 bucks for no ads.”
    • “Amazing game with almost no ads.”
    • “You watch ads more than you 'play' this game, which is basically just: yes?”
    • “The older game was great, but in this version they've added even more nonsensical mechanics from other games, more obnoxious applications of RNG, oppressive ads, pointless microtransactions, ads as punishment for death, etc. It's ridiculous and, in my opinion, it poisons the root of the game, which I actually enjoyed prior.”
    • “Forced to watch ads; I hate games that force ads on you.”
  • story
    96 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is generally well-received, with many players finding it engaging, humorous, and filled with relatable characters.

    • “The story is engaging (until you reach the end).”
    • “One of the best story-driven games you will ever play.”
    • “The story and characters are so charming and funny.”
    • “The story is boring, the art style is ugly, and the game has a stupid lowbrow sense of humor; maybe funny for a 5-year-old, but some of the jokes are clearly not for kids.”
    • “There's a lot of back and forth in the story, and it's mostly dialogue. Creative, yes, but character gear that isn't preassigned would definitely help.”
    • “We need more story.”
  • humor
    92 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is a standout feature, with many players praising its hilarious dialogue, quirky encounters, and a mix of dark and silly jokes.

    • “The older game was great, but in this version they've added even more nonsensical mechanics from other games, more obnoxious applications of RNG, oppressive ads, pointless microtransactions, ads as punishment for death, etc. It's ridiculous and, in my opinion, it poisons the root of the game, which I actually enjoyed prior.”
