Players appreciate the educational value of learning logical fallacies through gameplay, with some noting it genuinely helped them recognize these patterns in real conversations. However, there's widespread criticism that the game offers minimal content and mechanics for its $15 price point, with several comparing it unfavorably to simple flashcard systems that would cost far less.
15 dollars for this is ridiculous, it's pretty fun but there's so little substance I can't in a million years understand why it costs this much4 found this helpful
This game taught me the motte and bailey fallacy, I'd never heard of it before and everytime I've seen someone use it since it's been really cool to be like "woah, they're actually using the motte and bailey fallacy, it's real". Like I saw some incel adjacent types were talking about how it's useless for men to try to date women because of what they called "an asymmetry in attraction". When people called them out on this being strange they used their motte argument, that being that "an asymmetry in attraction" between men and women exists, where men are more attracted to women than women are to men, completely ignoring the bailey argument, that being that if this asymmetry exists then men shouldn't even try dating women because it's hopeless. So thank you for teaching me the motte and bailey fallacy, it's been really interesting to see it.2 found this helpful

(wishful thinking) i mean if i didnt review this positively it would make it a bad game so we have to rate it well! (appeal to consequence) Because its such a great game the creator must have spent alot of time on it, he must be great too (jumping to conclussions, appeal to flattery, and division) this game has to be great because solving problems is human nature (appeal to nature) if you dont get this game your brain will rot and youll be stupid!! ( appeal to fear) so many people play this game, and think its great, you should play it and have the same idea, northernlion does so it has to be right (appeal to common pract…
These are basically glorified flashcards, $15 is ridiculous.
I've learned a lot from this.
Saying everyone would love this gamer is a hasty generalization, but I enjoy it.
