What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players praise this short game for its unique perspective of playing as the final boss instead of the hero, along with its emotional impact and meaningful narrative that stays with them. However, some find the repetitive gameplay and tedious mechanics boring, with complaints about the limited interaction and relatively high price for the brief playtime, though others feel the low cost justifies the experience.
This is a wonderful game. I do wish it were longer to get to know the characters even more, but the story is beautiful regardless. Definitely worth the money.
Маленький шедевр.
Fun game, great all around!
genuinely a fun and original game, its fun and simple with the interactions being quite interesting, wish it was longer however
Interesting idea, although a bit frustrating.
Fun story and lovely art. Keep making games!
