✦ AI summary

Zarya and the Cursed Skull draws praise for its engaging story, detailed world design, smooth controls, and strong audio-visual presentation, but players report frustration with clunky and unintuitive controls, slow-paced gameplay that feels more like exploration and dialogue than action, and frustrating mini-games with unfair difficulty. Opinion is divided on whether the game delivers on its action-adventure premise, with some finding the narrative compelling enough to recommend while others feel disappointed by the lack of actual action.

I had high hopes for this game. I knew from the start that the graphics were not great but I was willing to look past it. The game seemed really cool. First issue that I had was the controlls are backwards you use the arrows to move instead of WASD and the movements were not smooth at all. very robotic and clunky. I looked past that. The game really started to go down hill when I noticed I waas 10% completed and I feel like I didn't do anything yet. All I've done was run around a city and talk to people. For an action adventure game I'd say so far it was neither. More like a magic city sim but what really killed this game for me was the pong mini game you have to play thats near impossible to win because the controlls are so clunky and weird and the AI knows where the ball is going to go before you even hit it. All around just a bad game with good ideas

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

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.
