Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“I just can't really recommend this game. It's a great concept, but it really feels like a demo shined off and put up on the store to make some extra cash. I mean, it is exactly that, and while that isn't a bad thing in itself, I really…”
“Interesting game but very basic and short for a 5 dollar price tag, Eversion is the same price and its about twice as long as this and more interesting, id suggest play that instead or buy this when its on sale.”
