I love this game! There's a lot to keep track of, but in a way that's interesting and intuitive rather than confusing and overwhelming. The characters are charming, there's a surprisingly strong through-story, and I don't feel that the learning curve is too difficult, either. Highly recommend!
Mediocre - RNG sucks and probably wrongly coded. 79% success chance translates to 8 failed attempts out of 10. ffs! - All characters are childish and annoying. There is no depth to them, Writing is cheap - Asset flip. Many areas are replica from previous game, word to word. - Too many events that can not be influenced, driven by RNG - Instead of survival it feels like busy chaos. Effects popping up out of nowhere...
