“I played Plaque inc. and i loved it. diffrent modes had diffrent ways to win. this game can do the same but for me it just doesnt feel as impactfull it all kinda feels hollow and boring. Im not sure if its due to the art style of making…”
“Overall, it's alright. The game gets repetitive really fast, but the most critical issue are the crashes. There is no save function, so you have to restart after every crash and lose time.”
