✦ AI summary

Project Manager (Initiation) is a project management simulator with good conceptual potential that is severely hampered by poor execution and design choices. Players consistently cite frustrating core mechanics including awkward movement controls decoupled from the mouse, an unrealistic 3-minute time limit to navigate without a map, clipping issues, crude graphics and menus, and artificial-sounding voice acting. The general consensus is that the game needs substantial redesign work in usability and gameplay pacing before it would be worth playing.

As one of maybe 5 people who could actually play this game, I sincerely gave it a shot but right away there are many barriers from entry based on the foundation itself. Decoupling movement from the mouse cursor is a must, that's keeping me from being able to actually play the game. The time limit I expected to be more akin to deadlines, but having 3 minutes to find people in a sprawling office without a map is insane. You clip through everything. The voice is obviously artificial, but it feels like Microsoft Speech rather than Elevenlabs or something more natural. Some way to set performance options to keep your PC from going 100% would be very nice, too. I can suspend disbelief with the graphics if the gameplay is present, but the menus and graphics and engine itself are all so crude and hacked-together feeling that I have a hard time believing this is a sincere effort at a game, rather than some sort of joke or bitcoin-mining operation. I would have at least labeled this as Early Access, provided there are attempts at patching down the road. If not, this should sincerely be avoided. I'm going to refund it for now, but I'll keep my eye on it as I find the idea of a Project Mana…

I personally would not recommend Project Manager simulator to anyone I trust or look up to. I bought this game for my nephew thinking it would be a fun game to play during our weekly game sessions. Imagine my surprise when it turns out that this game (which is sold as a fantasy MMORPG about working as a project manager (wizard) for a company (guild) managing a team (raiders)) turns out to just be a normal game about managing a project. My nephew was so overwhelmed with frustration that he put his head through the drywall and the fire department and some local teens had to pull him out. Please let the player go faster than 10 speed

In my view, this game has excellent potential to be fun, engaging, and exciting. I believe that, if more care was taken into consideration for the development of this game, it could serve as a successful on-ramp for new PMs getting into the industry. However, many things must be taken into consideration: - Interactions ought not be distance based -- An input key would be much better "Press E to talk to {name]" for example. - A mini-map should be implemented to provide new players and continuing players with a visual representation of the layout of the office. Especially when trying to play for the first time, trying to internally map the office is exceedingly difficult when under pressure. - The F3 to view Elevator view is bugged and results in the player avatar freely moving about and requires exiting and reentering the game to regain control. - There's no way to turn the music off or adjust sound settings. - The menus are not consistent with opening and closing. In some instances, Esc closes the menu, in others the same button closes the menu, and in others, the same button reopens the menu in layers over the first. The behavior is very inconsistent. - Project Kick-off options n…

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.
