It exactly what the name of the game says. It has no settings at all but it is kinda cool that you can read a whole bunch of different books in game. Shame is that if you close a book in the middle of it you will have to click your way back to the page you were on before you closed it as it has no bookmark or page selector system that I could find. While I kinda like the idea of this game you just are way better off with just an e-book reader or even an actual book instead.

Less than a minute in the game and I'm already nauseous. In this game you can't... 1. read ALL of the books. 2. configure settings. 3. sit on the chairs, open cabinets, turn on the lamps...essentially, you can't interact with objects. I bought it for the lols. Don't do what I did.

As many have said, the 'game' is basically unplayable: horrible controls, incredibly small hit boxes for the books (making it nigh impossible to read half the books in this game), terrible rendering of the books themselves. But they also missed one of the most important features of any reading simulator or eReader... a bookmark. You cannot save your place at all! If you close out of the book, reopening it takes you back to Page 1. And there's no way to skip ahead to a certain page, so you can't even just keep track of your page number and jump to it. Basically, the further into a book you read, the more you are punished. Not even worth the dollar, which is very sad since there's some really good books featured in the game. 0/10

Really great idea for a simulator! One that tons of people would love to buy BUT.... 1) The books are limited and unorganized. They're all on the desks in random places. It'd be better if they were on shelves split by category. 2) The chairs are really messy and disorganized. It's hard at times to get at the books. 3) The book doesn't have an auto-save so you can read a chapter then close and when you re-open it, you'll have to find where you left off. 4) The books on the shelves are inaccessible. Just put all the books on the shelves without the glass and again make them by categories. 5) You jump so high! Wtf lol, that's kind of random For 0.99$ it's good. I'd buy it for 20$ if you just make a bunch of improvements...It's an amazing idea but the execution could be a lot better. For the price I recommend it but as it's essentially useless because you have to remember what page you're on when you stop reading, I absolutely cannot recommend it because it's just a complete waste of time in the end.

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
