This games description says it all. I literally ruined my life from the replayability. I lost my wife, my kids, my job and most importantly my will to live. But after all I've lost what I can say confidently, is I have gained a wealth of enjoyment from pixels on a screen that my wife's ♥♥♥♥♥♥ love could ever match. Overall, I can openly say that The Sprite Trials ruined my life, but maybe it was for the better.
