It’s pretty amazing that even after making a game that did a really job adapting the source material along with having most of the voice cast come back to reprise their roles, you somehow made a game that feels like it has nothing to do with Adventure Time outside of having the characters and some references.
So here’s the thing. I was gonna go off on this game for its lackluster job of adapting the show’s style of humor, it’s repetitive dungeon crawling gameplay that gets old after a few floors, and its super grindy progression system. But my PS3 froze up and when I turned it back on my save file got corrupted and I lost 3 hours of monotonous gameplay, meaning I’d have to start allllllllllllllllllllll over again. I said fuck that and turned the game off.
I wanted to be nice to this game since the last time I played it was when it first came out, but no 13 year old STRM was right this is still as bad as I remembered

I've only played Hey Ice King and Dungeon since I grew up with those games but I do plan on playing the other Adventure Time games since I've been a weird Adventure Time kick ever since finishing Fionna and Cake. I will say that the writing for the few cutscenes I saw while playing seemed pretty inline with where the show was at the time (season 3 and 4) but the game part which takes up 90% of the game is so fucking dull and boring you'd think it was made by people who's never seen the show, and given how Hey Ice King was made a year before this game I feel like theirs should be no excuse on WayForwards part since they knew their homework.

Same exact thing happened to me years ago. Did not find this game very fun at all, but I pushed as far as I could. Lost my save file after my PS3 crashed and I took it as a sign that my time with this game was over.
