Dangit Bethesda, it's been almost a decade and there are still CTD crashes in this game.

That's not going to stop me from playing it, I'm just saying.

I feel like if I'm going to entirely trash one of the other Turbo Pug games I should say something nice about one of them that I actually enjoy. This one is fun, in the way that if you don't know what to play next you can open it up and click around for a little bit.

For me these games can be fun but just move a little too fast. The graphics and music are both great, which is something common across all of these titles, but the gameplay is hit or miss.

The quality of the one-click jumpy runner gameplay is entirely dependent on the random level generator. If it likes you, then you can do pretty well! If it doesn't, you will fail immediately and repeatedly. Triple jumps are a useful tool in these instances, if you don't obsess about your score being too high.

I really don't see myself putting more than a few hours into any game like this, as it's an okay time waster but not something I'm willing to dedicate my gaming time to beyond the occasional few minutes here or there. Actually, because of its status being regulated to this boredom clicking state, it has been installed a lot longer than most other games on my drives!

But that period of time is about to come to an end. There are other games, other clickers, that deserve my time more. Thanks for the trading cards.

5/10. Right in the middle.

The other Turbo Pug games are at least a little bit fun, this one is crap. Jump lag totally ruins the experience. It doesn't always register mouse clicks so you end up exploding when you get too close (note I didn't say hit.) to blocks or spikes. This is obvious from the very beginning of the first time you start the game.

Waste of time. How anyone gets 10s of hours in this is beyond me. I'm sure there's a way I can adjust mouse sensitivity or something, but it's not worth it for this. On to the next one.

The graphics and music are good, too bad the gameplay is garbage.

2/10

Bad.

I just started playing Weedcraft, and I must say:

I paid nowhere close to full price for this game and even as low as that is, it's still too much for it.

Although the graphics are cute and clicking around on it can be fun for a half hour, the best thing about it are the trading cards. I suppose for achievement hunters this is a good pick but I don't particularly care about achievements. The cost of entry for me is the same price as a game of classic Galaga on a genuine arcade machine two towns over.

That's about how much time I spent playing it, too!

A couple quarters for a half hour? Not too bad, but once you load it down with micro-transactions and randomized chances of winning mini games that don't actually require any skill, just the RNG to roll in your favor, it's an easy no. Charging for a cursor that looks like an animal paw? Trying to sell multiple cursors that resemble animal paws?

Get out of here. Silly.

2.5/10.

This absolutely is a Gacha game.

But I've played about 8 hours and there's still tons of content to unlock and things to do and I haven't spent a dime. For a free game as a stop gap until the new game comes out in February? I'm with it.

Play it.

They fixed it!

A game that used to be almost entirely unplayable has rocketed into being one of my most favorite games of all time.

Very close to being the perfect game now.

9.5/10

Have played this game for years - my time on Steam isn't accurate. I have it on more than just PC. I haven't played in awhile, because every update released ruins it a little more. I decided to try again.

Started a new game with all default settings. Spawned on dry ground, then was quickly covered up with water. Broke into a half-underwater house, was immediately beaten to death.

Why? Uninstall.

68 hours to play this game.

68 hours of my life that I'll never get back.

68 hours that I legitimately enjoyed.

68 hours of playing with a virtual hose and cleaning virtual dirt off of the sides of virtual objects.

68 hours inside of a month.

I had a good time, and it's well worth the purchase - I have no complaints. It wasn't the best game I've ever played, but it wasn't the worst. Nothing about this game annoyed me, which is rare for any game.

I would buy it again.

I can sum up this game in one sentence, once spoken to a dear friend:

"Congratulations, I've never tasted a fart before."
