✦ AI summary

Players appreciate the game's distinctive dark cartoony art style and atmospheric nightmare-themed world that creates an effectively surreal experience, with a short, accessible length that works well on lower-end systems. However, the game is criticized for relying too heavily on random clicking rather than logical puzzle-solving, with some players finding solutions nonsensical and frustrating, and there are technical issues like characters disappearing off-screen that can prevent completion.

So, I did not get this game for free, but the creators of the game approached me and recommended it to me. On my laptop I like to not play too big games size it can´t run them. Therefore, I experience many point and click games of small sizes like this game. The game is a point and click game, very simple and easy to get into. What I would call the games strongest aspect is it´s theming and style. The graphic style seems very cartoony but is of dark subject matter at the same time. This creates a strong contrast that makes for some great atmosphere. The theme of nightmares and night terrors are well done, and creates this really surreal world where anything can happen. The game is rather short and is easy to get through, although a few of the puzzles took me some time to complete. The game has some scary imagery at times but nothing to serious. Overall, the game is good, and I would recommend giving it a try if you are into point and click games.

I can't finish the game - the game does not fit on my screen. The character disappears as he is crawling thru' the tunnel. I tried to unlock my taskbar & I still cannot find him.

Yet another terrible point and click adventure game. Anyone who finds clicking around and trying everything until they either stumble upon a nonsensical solution or give up and look for a walkthrough should be castrated, and the people who make these games should be buried alive.

It seems that only around 10% of the events are achieved by logic. The rest are just random clicking. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone unless they just want to test their mouse.

Short and sweet. Cute graphics and simple mechanics. It won't hold your hand but you don't need it to, it reminisces from old point-and-click adventure games, although a bit simplified.

A short, simple puzzle game with an eerie, surreal aesthetic. There are guides available to help you get through the chapters if you need.

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.
