What players say
I love and hate this game, I love that it's a joke about loot boxes, I hated getting all achievements
On one hand its kinda lame, you finish it in a few hours, and 100%ing would take hours and potentially days On the other hand its about a dollar or two and meant more as a funny commentary on loot boxes, so can't complain. Fun was had
Pretty boring overall. No way to increase drop rates. So if you're missing a piece it can take a very long time for it to drop. Wish it has more "incremental" upgrade mechanics to buy
