Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“I really wanted to like this game. It has a neat concept and enough lore to pull you into the world. Unfortunately, the game is bogged down by poor controls and arbitrarily timed quests alongside needless time management. Those things…”
“Lack of tutorial is one thing, making the gameplay predominately fetch quests is another and leaves the gameplay pretty dull. Anytime you want to complete something its a fetch quest.”
