It's an april fools joke but they "ended" the series in the laziest way humanly possible

i really wish we got to explore the map

yo fuck this game

I remember spending 30 mins trying to find the correct place to click as a child

If i remember correctly this is the bait one that isn't an actual game. pretty funny.

I'm not sure how to feel about Riddle School 4... I get why the creator would make it; I've been on the receiving end of hassling to make sequels to creative worksI've done, and I get how frustrating it can be to have something you like feel like an obligation.

It's not like there's anything particularly wrong with this game either, from the audio commentary you can tell he was disillusioned at the time with the Riddle School series, but it's not like it's nothing and the April 1st release, while JonBro at the time insisted it wasn't an April Fool's joke, must have lightened the blow a bit. I don't claim to have my finger on the pulse of this game's reception, however. Maybe everyone found it funny.

When I was younger I used to read the "What Happened to All the Characters" section probably quite a bit more than the average person, I'm not sure why but something about it was so alluring at that time. Nowadays there are a few that are funny or intriguing (Diz, Ms. Oddverb) but a lot of them you can just kind of tell were slammed down and left there.

Most reception of this game comes in hindsight nowadays, but it's not like this was supposed to turn out how it turned out. I don't know, it just feels more like I'm rating a statement than a "video game".
