Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“Concept is good, but it's too short for the price. I finished the game in around 80 minutes. The entire game is effectively just a long fetch quest. There are no puzzles, no interesting gameplay, it's just "go get this thing and deliver it…”
“I was going to give this a passing grade (like a c-) for cute graphics and concept in spite of boring writing and predictable fetch/deliver quests. At least it was harmless. Then they of course added the last resort of unimaginative game…”
