  • music
    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with some players finding it acceptable while others criticize it for being too fast and not fitting the game's theme. Many users expressed disappointment that the original soundtracks for the US and UK were not used, and there were complaints about the robotic nature of the host and contestants. Overall, while the music aligns with the game's aesthetic, it lacks the authenticity and regional specificity that players desire.

    • “The music, sounds, and animation hold true to the real game.”
    • “I have no issues with the rave music.”
    • “The final answer music cue comes first before the dialogue.”
    • “The music is the 2007 rave package (not country specific - the US and UK use the classic music), and the questions are all mixed up and bad.”
    • “However, I think that the original music should be used in the corresponding countries, e.g. US and UK.”
  • graphics
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics in the game are criticized for being glitchy and containing errors, which detracts from the overall experience. While there is an appreciation for the effort put into localization and the attempt to create a global gaming experience, updates are needed to address these graphical issues and enhance gameplay. Additionally, players expressed a desire for the option to play in one language while using artwork from another language.

    • “Updates would be needed to improve the game, but I personally think we need to understand that they've at least put the effort into trying to replicate the dialogue of the game, as seen on shows, the localization with the intros, graphics, and questions, trying to get people around the world, or in their respective country, to play the game together, which hardly has been done before online.”
    • “Sound and graphics are glitchy; some answers that the game evaluates as correct are simply incorrect.”
    • “Graphical errors.”
    • “Updates would be needed to improve the game, particularly in terms of graphics and localization.”
  • humor
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “Funny AI characters add a unique charm to the game.”
    • “The game used to be hilariously bad, not gonna lie.”
    • “If you don't care about money and want to play a game show that feels like it was directed by Tommy Wiseau and Alan Resnick for Adult Swim at 2 AM - it's pretty damn hilarious at times.”
  • grinding
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious and frustrating, citing repetitive audio, poorly written questions, and a cumbersome menu navigation that detracts from the overall experience. The grindy nature of the gameplay is a significant point of criticism, leading to a lack of enjoyment.

    • “You have to go through the entire menu every time to play again, and it's super tedious.”
    • “The audio is repetitive and blasts your ears off; it's grindy as hell. I don't know how they achieved that honestly. The questions are wrong and just generally poorly written; I could go on for hours.”
    • “Slow, limited, grindy.”

    • “A lazy cash grab capitalizing on the nostalgia of the millionaire TV show.”
