If you love getting interrupted every nano-second by a random encounter which you are guaranteed to win, play this. (Note: Only played FF1)

Would be way better if Nintendo didn't insist in using caveman technology to host their servers. As it stands it just feels like a port of the first game with 3D World and slopes. Multiplayer is a painful experience.

Soulless Cashgrab

Edit: Having a look at this one more time it actually isn't as soulless as I initially thought. There's a lot of cool new things in here, with a cool variety of zombies, plants and game mechanics. Unfortunately the game can still feel very grindy and repetitive at times, it no longer gives you a new thing at the end of every level so the progression is a lot slower which is a big killer. The biggest problem however is that all the passion put into it is ruined by all of the predatory mobile game mechanics we are very familiar with by now.

Horrible game design but at least the "monster" from Neutral Milk Hotel coming out of the painting made me laugh.

I get it, it's supposed to be bullshit like the games he reviews, but you could've spent that time and effort trying to make something worth playing and engaging instead. Difficulty is obviously not a problem but you have to do it right in order to make me want to learn and keep playing and this game does not do that at all and hopes that throwing references in your face will be enough to please you.

There are some interesting new ideas here but the focus on random levels really hurts this game. I can barely distinguish them and it gets repetitive very VERY fast.

People tricked me into thinking this isn't just a mobile game that cost 10 dollars.

Edit: Hahaha 6K for the map editor. Classic Ninja Kiwi.

I don't mind the fake choices and the lack of gameplay, but if you're gonna make something that's so dependent on story maybe try writing one that's engaging, interesting and fun to watch?

Nowhere near as hard as people make it out to be but the "very fun game" part is correct.

Damn they got George Orwell in this?

2016

This game was a nice surprise.

Villagers in this are the most robotic they've ever been. It's hard for me to feel like I'm in a cozy town with all these characters when they run out of dialogue in less than a week of playing. You can't really build a relationship with them, it doesn't matter if you're the meanest or the nicest person as soon as you leave the screen they will forget everything that happened. In practice there's only 6 different possible villagers since every other villager with the same personality type is just a different texture. A lot of the events in the game you can't even engage on them and just stand there watching, and the ones you can participate are usually annoying (Halloween being a prime example).
