Fantasyland

[quote][b]Warning: Criminal Theft/Fraud[/b] The "developer" of this game engaged in a criminal, fraudulent act by accepting money from gamers then revoking their keys by abusing a developer feature... to take money from people in a sale, then fail to deliver the product as expected is textbook fraud. The developer stole money from gamers. The "developer" of this game has demonstrated an aggressive, systematic fraud operation by mass revoking keys to multiple games. To hide his identity and further mislead and scam gamers, multiple alias/shell accounts are used: [list] [*] imsunyu [*] AI Snake [*] Pyramid Game [*] SUNYU Software [*] Apillo [*] Rolling Ball [/list] This scammer now pushes these fake/low quality "games" with prices ranging from an insane $200 USD right up to almost $700 USD worth of DLC packages. This is clearly an illicit action taken for the purposes of money laundering or other, further criminal activity. Under no circumstances should anyone risk their money by letting this scammer near you.[/quote] Original review: [quote][b][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_flip]Warning: Asset Flip![/url][/b] Fantasyland is a Digital Homicide style asset flip, or what Valve calls a "Fake Game". The "developer" paid for/pirated a few Unity asset store packs, dumped them all in a blender, and submitted it to Valve as if they're real game developers.[/quote] Two notable criteria for what makes an asset flip instead of legitimate use of stock assets are whether those assets comprise the majority of the game, and whether the "developer" properly credited the people who created most of the assets in the game. This game fails both of those tests. The "developers" here didn't credit any of the artists and real, actual game developers who created the assets here, so this is plagiarism, as well as cash grab shovelware. In this case, the asset flipper took a Unity based top down shooter framework and slapped some stolen assets on it, to make an extremely lame wave survival type shooter where you shoot ripped off monster asset things... and saying that this is lame is perhaps being too unkind to the word "lame". Gameplay is a complete, clunky joke. It has no value or merit as a real game. Taking this shovelware seriously as if it was a genuine attempt to make a game, it doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. The game features lazy low-polygon "retro" assets, making this look like a barely functional 3D game from the mid 2000s. It's unclear why the developers weren't able to arrange high quality, high polygon count contemporary assets for the game, and also irrelevant... what matters is that this looks bad as a result of their decisions, a compromise PC gamers shouldn't have to put up with. Bewilderingly, the game doesn't include proper audio controls, so you can't turn off the annoying background music, you'll need to alt+tab out and stop the music using the Windows sound mixer. This is obviously not okay and it's unclear why the developers chose not to include this basic feature. The controls can't be customised, which will be an annoyance for many, but it can also render the game unplayable for differently-abled gamers, left handed gamers or gamers using AZERTY or other international keyboard layouts. These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game. So, should you buy this game? Is this one of the best of the 100,000+ games on Steam? Fantasyland has the completely insane price of $200 USD, which is incredibly suspicious, higher than AAA pricing for an asset flip shovelware scam game. In fact with this number being so high, I need to write this like a Nigerian prince: TWO HUNDRED UNITED STATES DOLLARS. Yes, that's the price tag on this asset flip. Why would the "developer" put such a high price tag on an asset flip with no true value as a game? There's no direct proof for this, but it's entirely possible this game is priced this way for money laundering or other criminal purposes. Higher prices allow more money to move with fewer transactions. Valve have previously banned developers for running money laundering scams. While there's no direct evidence in this case, it's highly suspicious and gamers should be wary. Given the defects and quality issues with the game, coupled with the unrealistic price, and the questionable ethical nature of the developer and/or their associates (as outlined above), this is impossible to recommend.

Dev revoked keys and sel same game with ridiculous price!! DO NOT BUY!!

This dev is revoking keys from users accounts without any reason or explanation. It's also banning people from forums and deleting all the posts. Until further clarification is given, I'll leave this negative review.

7年前激活的游戏，还能黄信注销？

I activated Fantasyland and its DLC on my account on Apr 16, 2018 with Steam keys. Both got revoked from my account (and many others) 7 years later on Nov 12, 2025 "due to a problem processing payment". The community discussions have been wiped and the price was increased. Also the game is not good and totally not worth this price.

Apillo revoked all keys from paying customers and deleted any discussions since the event took place. Avoid this fraud / scammer developer
