Ajax’s Trial

Love the artwork, the weapon and item stats, the abilities, and everything. Quite looking forward to see how this game releases, as it feels better than almost every other game of it's type, and it's just a pre-release demo type. I opened this to try it, not having any idea about it at all. And was honestly sad when it ended in just a bit over an hour because I didn't even realize it was a demo until after getting in the game. Love the feel of the game, just a few things seem to need to be tweaked, but a very neat game, definitely giving this one a follow and a wishlist (even in spite of it telling me there was a wishlist button :'D ) Thanks devs, whoever you are. Gonna have to look into any other games you have made and/or will make.

"Ajax’s Trial" is a basic mobile app tier ripoff of Plants vs Zombies with a bunch of fake/paid reviews from the Russian review farm uncovered by Sentinels of the Store. What do you do in the game? You play Plants vs Zombies but with a lazy ancient Greek theme plastered on it. It's infested with a nasty P2W/P2Play mobile app tier cash shop, so this is just a money harvesting scam. The graphics aren't great... that will understandably be a turn off for a lot of gamers, and it's a big contributor to the failure of the game to attract gamers despite having no up-front cost. Gaming is a primarily visual medium, and if developers want to succeed, they must understand that it's not an area for compromise. You deserve better than compromises.

They're all written in either Russian, broken English or ChatGPT AI slop, appear at almost exactly the same time, very shortly after the game launched on Steam, all have a direct Steam purchase of the game, and the accounts are used consistently to write fake reviews for asset flips and other cash grabs/scams. The "Positive" review score on this game should be disregarded due to this blatant, unethical review manipulation. This is done to deceive and scam gamers into paying for a bad product. Due to the 2024 FTC ruling (16 CFR Part 465), these fake reviews are a violation of US Federal Law.[/quote] Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Nope. This isn't worth downloading. While this didn't cost me any money up front, I still feel ripped off.
