What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

HIVESWAP: ACT 2 appeals strongly to Homestuck fans who praise the character dynamics between Joey and Xefros and the overall charm of the game, though some note the trial sections feel like filler. Players unfamiliar with the source material may find less to connect with, and the game appears to leave significant story threads unresolved, leaving fans eager for continuation rather than satisfied with closure.

Hey, If you like homestuck, it's pretty good. Joey and Xefros are an amazing duo. For the other trolls: Sometimes the filler visual novel game is better and that's okay!

I have found myself drawn almost desperate for a new Hiveswap and the Hauntswitch games. Steam won't let me buy multiple copies of Hiveswap for myself to fill this **void.** Where is it? Where is Joey?! Where is Dammek!? WHO IS JUDE?! Find out..................................................................................................... this comment has been put on hiatus until a new Hiveswap is announced.
