“Once I had a VERY good time with this game when it worked, although some heavy bugs have never been fixed like multiple monitors, different loading issues. I play the linux version. €19.99 for the game in its actual buggy state is way too…”
“I love the genre, but this game's controls and mechanics make it unplayable for me. I tried 2-3 times and every time I start with some new hope I get to like this game, I fail :]”
