I am going to kill myself before this game gets finished

If you liked Helltaker I'm sure you'll like this game. It's short, it's fun, and it has a good soundtrack with ncie art.

I don't like visual novels all that much, but this one really peaked my interest, with a little help from friends that is. Good story that kept me hooked with plenty of small animations and jokes that kept me entertained. I liked each of the characters and each ending was detailed, even the worst ending still was interesting to read through.

If you look past all the scaly stuff it's a good game worth playing. I already wish I could play it for the first time again.

Right now this game is just not it. If the game price goes up later maybe it's worth buying it now, but in it's current state this game really doesn't feel very good. Zardy's Maze set up a really simple beginning of a game that had hidden secrets around the map or were hidden around challenges and I was already afraid that a story based sequel was gonna miss the mark and I feel like it does. I didn't finish all the challenges as I currently don't have the motivation to do so, but some of them I did finish and a lot of them just felt somewhat unfair or unfun to complete like the twists and turns challenge. The voice acting I felt at times ruined the immersion but that's probably just me, but you can't blame me for immediately being taken out of it when the very intro had AstralSpiff as a voice actor. I love the guy but man you can't just give me a youtuber voice actor and expect me not to get my immersion broken, we learned this in hunt down the freeman! I'm afraid to say that this game feels like it's already heading in a direction of a mascot horror game that feels like it's made for kids, which majority of the fanbase ended up being which I blame on the FNF mod the game has.

The game clearly has issues regarding resolution as I felt the game was pretty zoomed in when I was playing and the lack of a FOV slider prevents me from removing that problem. The intro cutscene zooms in on a scarecrow in a starry night, but the starry night image doesn't cover the entire skybox and leads to me seeing both the starry night and the regular skybox. For the first time almost ever in gaming I got a headache because of excessive movement due to the areas where you have to climb rocks. This brings up the issue of animations looking poor, if Swanky himself animated these I guess I understand as he isn't an animator as far as I am aware, but this led to many animations looking choppy and poorly made. My biggest example of that is the area you first meet Pumpkin Jack and climbing rocks as mentioned earlier.

Zardy's Cave is also painfully short. The first chapter of the game took me less than an hour to complete! Even when I beat the game, unless it was on purpose the game just straight up crashed, giving me a unity error. Also not to mention the "made with unity" intro every time you start the game looks very unprofessional. I don't like the fact this game is taking a roblox horror game-esque chapter system, especially when a chapter only took me an hour to beat. Next thing I know this game is gonna get ported to roblox with gamepasses and paid respawns!

Some of the harsh criticism aside I really do hope to see this game blow me out of the water later and maybe I can give it a pass, but as of right now this game just provides nothing. The collectibles don't feel good, the entirety of chapter 1 is a tutorial, which seems weird because the very first challenge of the game is a tutorial! What is it man, Chapter 1 tutorial or challenge tutorial that teaches you the exact same things like seeds being different sizes?

They did recently release a patch that fixed the skybox, I wont remove that from my review for now, and I'll likely update this review more later down the line once more patches are made and once more chapters have been released.

The game is OK. It's not enter the gungeon, nor does it really play like it. It's very evidently dumbed down due to it being a mobile game. It's some blind fun, but I just don't recommend it for anything other than playing it on steam deck or mobile if you're bored and want a quick gungeon run, but not do a full fledged enter the gungeon run. I recommend it to hardcore fans, but not as a first time experience.

Dracula is a really fun killer and Trevor is a cool survivor with some decent perks. The skins they got are really nice, they have cool music, over-all a really really good chapter. I just wish we could've gotten a realm that was just dracula's castle, that way they could fit multiple maps into it or something due to how large it is.

I lost interest in apex around season 5, it seems to have only gotten worse with greed and being near impossible to play casually.

Just a boy and his tekken ball.

Alright, I'm revising my review one last time. This game is fun when things actually go your way, but due to it's mobile game-ish nature you're forced to do boring grinding and gacha as soon as you possibly can just to progress. The AI is unfair and essentially forces you to do specific teams and strategies just to win, and while I suppose that's fine, it sucks that you don't really get to try other teams of what you want to try because some unit you like or think looks cool is horrible. If you can get all past that though, this game is pretty fun.

I've had more fun re-earning everything I had on xbox than I have playing MK1.
