More about Party Animals
This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 5 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written March 2026 to October 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 48 percent of the 7,920 reviews written there were positive, against 80 percent overall, and those are 14 percent of everything written about it.

What drives the score
Grades: S best, D weakest
S is the best grade and D the weakest, judged as a buyer. ▲ raises the score, ▼ lowers it, ? is an input we do not have, • is a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work
What players say
why use generative ai? i mean good game, its really fun, runs well, animals are cute. but whats with the destroying the planet trend?? boost the economy in a healthy way for the environment and commission some artists if you cant do the work yourself. do better.
2 more reviews, 1 not recommended
Takes like 1-3 minutes to join lobbies sometimes, despite being in europe and there being 14k players. Not sure if its due to small servers or something else.
I had so much fun with this game until I learned about all the AI stuff going on and that honestly just ruined it for me. Really disappointed, because this seemed like a genuinely good game to play with friends.
