“the game is ok at best,but if you plan on completing the game 100% its impossible,darcys minigame is too buggy to complete without an error,I dont know if its just me but I cant complete it for the life of me.”
“Game was passable and was kind of funny to play with friends in the first half, then it marketed a cancelled game at me and became so cryptic I had to look up a walkthrough just for a very, very underwhelming resolve. Also the leaking IP…”
