Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“Consoomer simulator. Don't play if you value your time. The game features psychological tactics such as FOMO and Pay2Win. I do not recommend it.”
“Seeing the game has rather positive ratings I decided to look into. After spending almost hour I still have no idea where is the game. As the guy said, positive reviews are paid off with in-game currency. The game? No such thing here…”
