About tug-of-war



A simple one-button clicker game.

Play a tug-of-war as a witch trying to use cute cats as her familiars!

The pixel-style pictures and lively 8-bit music are the attractive points.

"tug-of-war" is a very badly made, pointless minigame. It's a single button clicker that emulates a simple arcade "tug of war" with lazy phoned in pixelcrap "art" and godawful, cringey, creepy e-book writing. There's an overwhelming amount of mediocre Visual Novel/E-book style cutscenes in this game. The developers failed one of the most basic, fundamental requirements of game design.. "Show, don't tell." So you'll spend a huge amount of time not playing the game, but clicking through endless lines of poorly written VN text cutscenes because the developers couldn't work out how to relate their narrative through the game mechanics, and decided instead it would be better to compete with reading a book for your time. We're here to play games, not read through hours of garbage intersituals. Your gaming rig is not a Kindle. The game is really simple and unambitious in terms of implementation, more of a tech demo or one of those cases where an amateur developer spends $100 to publish something on Steam Direct to see if it's possible. Yes, obviously it's possible. A proof of concept, tech demo, or something that's less than a little blip on the radar isn't offering anything trul…

Cute story, easy & simple to play. it doesn't matter if you play it on easy or hard mode, just press the "Spacebar" very fast, hit the "Enter" button when needed, & the 10 rounds of Tug-of-War will be a player's cake walk in the park, or more like a "Catwalk in the park," when you have 3 cute & crazy powerful witches on your side.

WARNING: Perverted text in the game. It was very off putting. At one point the witch refers to one of the cats as a "kid" and the "kid" cat calls the witch a pervert and doesn't want to do with the witch, but she wants to take him with her anyways. It talks about watching cats lick their privates. There are underlying tones of perversion, kidnapping and child trafficking in this game. I'm so sad and disappointed that this game was so gross because the concept is so cute: playing tug of war, with cutely designed cats and witches. But overall I have to not recommend this game because of the disgusting undertones.

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.
