So, I was expecting a biting satire about Pay 2 Win games. Instead, the experience is more like playing someone's first created game just to humor them. It's just not fun or funny. There were TINY moments of humor between the really tedious stuff. I played nearly an hour and chuckled mildly once. The whole "Pay 2 Win" mechanic is supposed to get rid of the tedium, of leveling and doing all this early-game stuff, and this game doesn't provide that. For instance, let me warp by spending money! Let me level up by spending! Let me buy valuable weapons and armor! Cosmetics! And all of this should be available from the very beginning of the game, if the idea is to "maximize monetization." Some of the options it does provide are a little unfair, and I've never seen them quite that egregious in a real game, like two hours to craft one item, when you need three for a basic quest. If you're playing a game that makes you do that, you're an idiot who doesn't deserve your money. Adding $0.20 at a time is also stupid. One of the worst things about these games is how EASY it is to throw away lots of money, by putting in your credit card number and going to town. If there is a point to this like "you have to earn money slowly in the real world," it's running contrary to that more important issue of blowing tons of money quickly. Couldn't be bothered to finish this, so I looked up the "secret." It's very bad, and completely destroys any attempt at the satirical look at a manipulative system this game could have been.

Спустя, 9 тысяч миллионов кликов, я почти прошёл игру. Осталось ещё 9 тысяч миллионов кликов. 9/10
Le jeu soulève quelques points intéressants mais 70% du jeu se résume à faire 2 quêtes pénibles où il faut cliquer des milliers de fois et click&drop avec une interface horrible. L'intention était bonne, mais ça manque cruellement de contenu : ça s'arrête à quelques points usés et abusés de certains jeux gacha mais ça gratte à peine la surface. Pensez à utiliser un auto-clicker.
Its not a game, but rather a poorly-written college lecture. No narrative, no immersion - just a few words sprinkled in and "interactions". Even bigger cashgrab than the pay2win games, themselves.
This game is a HIDDEN GEM. If you played SCAM MMOs like MIR4, you will definitely love this game. If you, like me, spent THOUSANDS of dollars in scam MMOs and is tired of that, this game is for you. some things are very blatant scams, others are so disguised and pass unnoticed that even we very smart people with nice jobs don't even notice... The only reason why it is not on overwhelmingly positive reviews might be because people thought it was a "normal game". It is not. It doesn't mean it is a bad game tho. It is what it says it is. The game itself is also catchy, if you like MMOs, you will be tempted to play at least a decent bit of it (I'll come back revisit to the review when I have more hours of game to confirm that). Aaand confirmed. The game is great and catchy. I couldn't stay angry with the game even after losing a mission that took about an hour to make 90% of it, simply because it was my fault. The save came back, but I forgot to read that it only saves when you actually finish a mission, unlike MMOs where you can close and return to where you left off. Probably just another scam from some MMO that has the save that way! The only caveat I have is that you should use an autoclick control, because it takes a lot of clicks to beat this game

I understand that this game is a message by the devs but the experience could've been made at least somewhat enjoyable... This is just a garbage and tedious experience, 5 bucks for this is a robbery, this should be free and even then would be just a waste of time... Avoid.
Making your parody of bad games bad still in the end just makes a bad game.
игра топ для своего времени
The game itself is very clear and effective in conveying the developer’s intentions, but it is limited by the game’s display methods, which makes the game’s influence limited, and the developer’s intentions are not communicated widely. This game is suitable for players who have a strong interest in the game industry and have the patience to explore. Completely playing this game can get the basic operating principle of the F2PMMO games. Ordinary players can understand why they will pay in MMO after playing, and think about whether they need to do this.
