Do No Harm

Needlessly annoying gameplay mechanics, specially with the humor circle thing.

I feel the need to defend this game, because it seems to be judged unfairly in the negative reviews. I don't want to come across as an arrogant a-hole, but it seems that many reviewers missed the point of the game, or what you are supposed to do. If you want to turn off your brain, listen to a podcast while playing or are expecting a chill job simulator then this game isn't for you. Possible spoilers ahead! Reviewers complain about some of the games mechanics. Either they're poorly implemented, they're broken or not explained well enough. I agree that some mechanics seem unintuitive at first, but you'll figure them out as you go. I also have the feeling that that's how it's meant to be. In this game the doctor (you) goes to a strange island where strange things happen and where patients have strange ailments, which the doctor is new to and needs to figure out somehow. And occasionally it doesn't seem clear about what to do. Some patients are very tricky to treat (at times impossible to heal fully) and sometimes, finding the right treatment requires trial and error and for you to use your head.

Like many people I wanted to love this game as a huge fan of the Lovecraftian aesthetic, but the loop is boring and the mechanics are fairly obtuse, a lot of the game relies on RNG. The only way to efficiently progress is to go all in with the cures but then the extra money you get is spent replenishing the medicine you just gave away at a triple dose. A lot of people are comparing this to papers please but it feels much closer to a cooking simulator where you flip burgers for customers with a timer. I am not giving a thumbs down, I don't think that's fair because this game works fine, looks great and I can see the appeal, it is, unfortunately, too boring and at the same time full of needlessly convoluted mechanics that can either be broken in seconds or are an overly complicated slog for me to want to progress.

hebat mantap mengasah yang bisa diasah, susah, tapi oke, soalnya hidup juga susah. ikan :3

The whole lovecraftian theme is so insteresting and the game isn't super easy or super hard, is very balanced. I just think we could have a more clear way to get the other endings.

Good game
