What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players praise this game for its authentic portrayal of emotional manipulation in relationships and find satisfaction in the agency to hang up on the manipulative partner Josh, with some finding it cathartic after their own breakups. However, the game heavily relies on player empathy for the protagonist's sunk cost fallacy and engagement with the relationship drama, which doesn't resonate with everyone and can make the experience feel tedious or frustrating if you find the antagonist insufferable rather than sympathetic.
i love josh i miss him wish there was more of him i think im in love please make more josh i want josh i need josh
amazing rage bait
A fantastic story about a girl who is so tired of being emotionally and mentally manipulated by her partner, just for him to consistently turn it back onto her.
Pretty realistic, after going through a breakup a bit ago and returning back to the game it was very satisfying to continue to hang up on him. 10/10 recommend.
Hang up go BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Im definitely not the intended audience for this game, haha. My first impression of Josh, (and OF COURSE his name would be Josh) was "this person sure comes off as an insufferable Pain in the butt." and boy, I could not unplug on this numbnut fast enough. I get that the couple has history, and you're expected to engage accordingly, but all I could think is "Shiiiiiiii- this poor sleep-deprived healthcare worker has to deal with THIS after a long day at work?? NOPE." To get the full experience you have to be able to get into Carlee's sunk cost mindset (to be fair, a LOT of people have certainly been there!) and also give a damn about the opinions of Twitter Users, otherwise, you're in for a very short playthrough! That said, it's an interesting concept that one hopes would provide a reality check to all the Joshes and Carlees out there who might not recognize the bad situation they're in until seeing it paralleled in-game.
