Really cute, colorful and wholesome but overstays its welcome a bit. Positives first, the monster designs are pretty solid, the rubber hose style looks great and the "combat" is fun, even tho a bit to easy. I also liked that instead of fighting enemies we befriend them but chipping away at their insecurities. I would however liked a bit more depth here, as it really boiled down to "pick the most positive dialogue...
You see, if you're a huge fan of cutesy wholesome colorful childlike games, then this review isn't for you, because, let's face it: 1. You'll buy this game without looking at the reviews. 2.

This review is for those of you who groaned when...
