"Crushing on the Clock" is a nice slice-of-life kind of game with some entertaining dialogue between the main player and the boss. Too bad the real work place doesn't have that same kind of banter; you would be "crushing on the pink slip" in real life. This game is still being updated, so it's hard to give a final verdict on it, but I think it's good enough when compared to other games in the same genre.1 found this helpful
I liked the graphics and animations. Maybe there's some AI involved, but for me, the main thing is that I like the final result. I'd certainly like a translation into other languages, particularly Russian, at least through AI. I can play in English, but it's not as comfortable. If only the patch had been +18, it would have been even better.1 found this helpful
