This review contains spoilers

This game is full of personality in every way. Every single character is unique and enjoyable to interact with. The story just felt like a bunch of plot points all hastily strung together but that didn’t matter because it was fun to advance the story and it got crazier than I thought it would at some points. I actually laughed when the mom said her family was dysfunctional and her only option was divorce since I wasn’t expecting the game to be so literal with the story.

There were a lot of things to do in the game and there was a lot of walking involved. I wasn’t a fan of all of the walking and it was never changed. Movement speed never changed and the game only gives 2 sets of teleports in set locations. The game also sometimes just didn’t tell me about some mechanics, like how you can use the pajama outfit to skip to the next day/night period.

The platforming and parkouring were also sometimes weird and unnatural. Since you can’t jump, climbing to different places is made almost unnecessarily difficult. The paths to get to different spots also require some thinking, but some are too complex (or maybe I need to just get good). I made it to the credits and did a pretty sizable chunk of the side content and still never made it to some of the upper portions of the living room since I couldn’t figure out how to get up to it.

But I enjoyed the game very much. I had no idea what to expect going in since I literally knew nothing about the game or franchise. I think the only reason I even knew about the franchise was because I either saw it as an amiibo or a spirit in smash ultimate.
