It's more interesting as a concept than an actual game.

It's a very boring puzzle game based on chess mechanics with many mistakes that tries to sell itself with lewd girls and it just does everything very poorly. I'm sure the puzzles continue to get harder but the game is just awful and you can't even tab in/out from fullscreen easily. I don't need more playtime to hate this, it's just not good from the start.

Surprisingly well written and a bit of a difficult puzzler (hint use graph paper to make your life easier). I also love the art style and the play on Shy Guys from the Mario games. For the price this is a must buy for puzzle fans. The only think that I didn't particularly care for was the music. It sort of fits, but it's pretty bland and a bit grating if you are listening to it long term. Oh and the full screen mechanic kept messing with my computer when I would try and exit it. Overall it's a short and sweet with a story and characters that left me wanting more, which is always a good sign for an up and coming indie developer. Awesome job!

Simple chess based puzzle game with a RPG Maker feel. Awkward opening cinematic but the actual story in the game is not as cheesy.
Recommended May 9, 2019
great game due to it being a very good puzzle game...yes it is unforgiving but the only one that really gave me a hard time was the last one. So yeah, its all good and for the price not bad at all.

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

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.

Games like Slay the Spire that keep the branching climb

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.

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.
