Arctic Eggs

I rarely leave reviews, but I played this a month ago and it was perfect in the most obscure way. I enjoyed playing the game and went for the 100% too. Usually that's where it ends for me. This game isn't so easily forgettable. It reminds me of Mouthwashing in that way. Somehow, the question lingered in the back of my mind... Sizzling through my dreams... It's been a month and here I am still pondering... Can you fry eggs on top of Mount Everest?

This is a weird one for me- on the one hand it has a lot of things going for it (cool vibes, interesting gameplay), but I feel like the game gets in its own way with its 2017-era "lolsorandom" style humor. There is consistent internal worldbuilding that is cool, if a bit zany, but the characters all feel like a millennial trying too hard to be funny and I don't think I laughed at a single joke. It would have been better if the game took itself more seriously. I also personally started to find the gameplay annoying towards the end (especially how unforgiving the hit detection is for cooking things), but there is an easy mode so that was just me being a masochist. Overall I was pretty satisfied with my time, even if it was short. There are glimpses of greatness in there, but you have to get through the internet humor to find it. The actual main story is pretty short (I finished it in ~2 hours) but there's replayability with hard mode and sandbox mode, so if you really like the gameplay I think it's worth the price. That being said, I'm giving it a no because I didn't have nearly as much fun with it as I thought I would. If there was a "meh" rating, I'd give it that.
