If these games were just released for free or for really cheap (like, 1 or 2 dollars a chapter cheap), while making most of the cash from merchandise or something, I'd honestly find this series enduring. Cause like, there are some genuinely cool ideas in this series here and there (for example the press the clock to progress time thing), as well as just a really enjoyable (though mostly ironically enjoyable) story.
Though despite that, its creation is so obviously meant for the sole of making a quirky and wacky horror mascot game to make money with little care that actually making people spend 30 dollars for the entire series feels like a money laundering scheme.
It's made specifically to be a product, but it's also just genuinely incompetent. And like, I love terrible and weird storylines, I do, and if these games were free or cheaper, I'd rate the different chapters something like a 3 or a 4, cause again, there is SOME value to get out of them (Probably not the first chapter tho cause honestly it's just bad all around). But when you combine that with something that was made most likely just to appeal to a market, as well as just making it more expensive than games that like, actually care, you're left with something that just feels gross

A 15-20 minute game about shooting yourself with a shotgun and getting a shit load of cash. Obviously people can say that it's a commentary on addiction and gambling, which like, of course it is, but HOLY SHIT THIS GAME IS SO FUN! The fact it's so luck based yet the odds feel genuinely fair and strategic is such a fucking cool aspect of it and my only two complaints are that I wish the dealer got the upper hand at points and that it was longer. It only costs a dollar but if you don't wanna pay it then at the very least watch Markiplier play it. I would pay so much for an extended version
