一开始感受不深,但随着游戏的进程,渐渐从和妈妈的短信与争吵,留下的物品,带过来的大学商科毕业证,如此种种感触颇深。完美的印证了东亚父母对孩子“望子成龙,望女成凤”的思维逻辑,作者团队也印证了这一点:绝大多数都是华人的姓氏。 It isn't immediately apparent, but as this game progresses, the text messages and arguments with Mom, the personal belongings left behind, and the university business degree brought along all evoke a deep emotional resonance. The game perfectly embodies the East Asian parental mindset of wanting their children to "become dragons or phoenixes"—to achieve great success and social status — The development team reflects this reality as well: the vast majority of the last names are Chinese. 毕业后从事的工作虽然与大学学到的专业相符,但自身的兴趣爱好并不被父母认可。孩子与父母对于未来的争吵与辩论,到自己与朋友围绕着爱好发展成职业,最后得到母亲的鼓励与认可。 Although the their career pursued after graduation aligns with the university major, the author's personal passions and hobbies do not meet with parental approval.

Ohhhhhh my goshhh this game was so flipping fun and adorable!! I definitely recommend it if you're a gacha/blind box addict or you like sorting & organizing games. You can do arrange the little figurines however you'd like. The art is great too this pixel style is soo cute I'm telling you right now you won't regret playing it. The story was pretty short but heartwarming. And the game is perfect for when you wanna play something chill. + I really like the way they did the credits lol ++ I hope they can expand on the room to allow for more decoration space AND gachas or a free-play mode would be really nice too <3 love to the devs for the game!!

Short and sweet, great to spend an hour on instead of wasting time scrolling on my phone. The little hamster gacha set was my favorite :)

This game was perfect!! I love every little detail in it. The combination of storyline with decorating and opening gacha is EXACTLY what I was looking for <3 I recommend it to anyone who loves collecting trinkets and putting them on their shelves :D

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.
