The story is perceived as incomplete and lacking direction, with some humorous elements but ultimately failing to engage players meaningfully. While the game presents interesting ideas and a nostalgic art style, it suffers from poor design and shallow combat, leaving players feeling aimless and unfulfilled. Overall, the narrative does not provide the depth or immersion expected, leading to a disappointing experience.
“The story feels complete and the gameplay is pretty fun.”
“Seriously, it's not a big flashy AAA game with super graphics and an immersive storyline that will make you feel all the feels.”
“Overall, I cannot recommend this game to anyone, but I really would like to see these ideas be better used in some other game with a deeper and more balanced combat system, with a longer and more serious story that does not leave the player aimless through the map.”
“The game overall has some pretty interesting ideas and an art style reminiscent of old browser games, that certainly got my attention at first and made me think that this could be possibly a hidden gem. However, I soon discovered the game was poorly designed, with a story that is sometimes funny but leaves the player with no direction to follow right from the beginning and a combat system with so little depth that I became bored after just 5 minutes of fighting.”
“Overall, I cannot recommend this game to anyone, but I really would like to see these ideas be better used in some other game with a deeper and more balanced combat system, with a longer and more serious story that does not leave the player aimless through the map, with equippable items that change your character's appearance and with an enhanced version of this dialogue system.”
“There's about 8 locations, a quest or two per map, and one of those maps is unlocked once everything else has been solved.”
