I'll try my best to review this game in a vacuum without having to over-explain the situation with mascot horror games, and how this one is practically an unoptimized mess of a "game" just for the sake of having to have something out.
Garten of Banban is a "horror" experience of no more than half an hour, in which you are investigating a kindergarten in where a kid went missing, I think? What matters is that you go in there and find yourself being stalked over by the characteristic... Creatures, that reside there for entertainment purposes. You have to do a couple of puzzles with a lobotomized drone that will actually stoop into anything and not go where you ask it to, coupled with the basic mechanics of collecting keycards to open doors that you previously couldn't.
In this iteration of Garten of Banban you are chased down by a very ugly looking pink bird, called Opila Bird. Nothing more to say that she follows you around sometimes and once you defeat her that's pretty much it, probably the most engaging part of the game was when she goes out of her way to go past the pit to the site you're on to kill you, and honestly I was a bit despaired to get out of there as soon as I could but with the game's lack of visual identity and language, it took me a great 5 minutes more of my playtime actually figuring out how to outrun her.
And once you do that, you go down an elevator and are met with the guy that appears in all the promotional art, he does nothing and so do you so the game ends like that. Fin.
Not something I would recommend to anyone to play besides for irony reasons, but if it is your thing then that's with you I guess, advised to have a beefy computer because the game is so badly optimized that my computer makes the same sounds it does when I play Fortnite, and that's saying something alright.
