This game is freaking awesome man it changed my life. I only played on that one map that has like 9 bridges by setting the AI to a country that can't build bridges, destroying all the bridges, and then building 100 goliaths just so I can hear the explosition.

This game is awesome because there's a 15 second part of the hour long original soundtrack that is the only actually memorable part. If you played this game before you know what I'm talking about.

This game looks cool, has an awesome narrator, awesome vibe, good presentation, lore, characters, monster designs, etc.

The problem is that there's just too much BS rng that can just cause you to lose hours of your time. If a giant swings at you putting your character at 1 hp and then another enemy attacks them immediately after then, if they lose the death roll, you're SOL and have to farm up another character. If the occultist decides to heal for 0 and a character gets killed then you're also SOL. There are many situations that just might kill off a character seemingly unfairly and while that might fit the theme of the bleak and horrific setting, it makes for some tedious gameplay where you need to play as carefully as possible or you might risk hours of progress.

Overall I give this game a 4.9/10, it's below average.

This is a masterfully crafted adventure where the game initially seems unfair and dangerous but this is because you need to spend more time in its world and learn its intricate mechanics and environments. The initial purple and blue lizards seem dangerous but while nearing the end of the game you'll think they're nothing, having experienced the power of the white lizards and other far more dangerous enemies. Returning to the initial areas to finish the game made you realize how much more skilled you were as you never acquired any power ups that affect gameplay.

While initially movement seems obtuse and you'll slowly stumble around the platforming sections and tunnels, you learn by just trying to use the game's three buttons that you can move around much more fluidly and quickly.

The story is masterfully told through dream sequences, NPC dialogue, and lore entries. The player is at first given almost no information about the world and why things are the way they are but it is there for whoever decides to seek it out. I cannot even begin to explain to you how the ending sequence changed me.

Overall I give this game a 5.1/10, its above average.

This game changed my life man, it's got everything you could ever want in an RPG. Seriously the fact that literally every single object in the world has a unique dialogue text is crazy and the amount of unique single use music and art is insane. It's nice to see they also kept the lack of healing stations from the original game so you still have to chug sandwiches after every fight. The only really annoying thing about the game is the RNG in missing attacks and getting the slot machine achievements. Jerome staples enemies down so infrequently I never used it. LGBTQ+ supporters beware, I have yet to find any actual representation in this game and in fact the only non masculine presenting individuals I've seen were some female ghosts, a plant lady, and maybe a drag queen.

Overall I give this game a 9/10 its a mastapiece.

This game is badass, it changed my life man. It's got all my favorite mechanics from the random I Wanna Be The games except the shooting. It would be better if it had shooting. This game also has one of the greatest transgender protagonists (or characters in general) of all time. This is a must play for all LGBTQ+ supporters.

This game is really good until you figure out how it works and realize all you do is run around with a thermometer to find the coldest room, go back to the van, pick up every item and dump it in the room and wait. The ghost is too easy to hide from you just walk into any room and close the door and the higher difficulties just make you have to stay in the closed room longer waiting.

BTD was great when I was in high school and they didn't let you play anything else on the computers after you finished your work.

Mungus is a great game to play with people who normally don't ever play video games but if you don't have 10 people it sucks.

This game is great because its very LGBTQ+ friendly.
