The ultimate voyeurist simulator! First of all, I really liked the game. The whole idea is addictive, fun and the stories are hilarious. But at the same time, this game is fun to play one time only. Well, two playthroughs, if you are lucky with random. I already have some kind of love-hate relationship with some of the Alawar games, and Do Not Feed the Monkeys suffers from the same problems. What do I mean by love-hate? The Love Do Not Feed the Monkeys has extremely great tension being built, there is a clear progression, there are money, sleep, food and health to track - like in real life when you spend weeks in front of your computer without going out from your room. The main point of the game - to "spy" on people implemented perfectly. The characters are alive, fun to watch, and easy to remember. There are a lot of stories, almost each of those having multiple endings and you can "feed the monkeys" in multiple ways, getting the most out of it! I really can't choose my favorite "monkey" - maybe the poor grandma, or maybe the wonder-driver? Or maybe a girl that allows you to learn foreign language? Or a dying rock-star trying to record his last album? Well, as you can see - there are A LOT of things to do and immerse yourself in short stories. But... The Hate You want to see multiple endings? Cool, but you need to watch the same scenes over and over again, marking the same clues again and again. You want to see the cages that you didn't get last time? Pray that random generator will be on your side. Or you will have to watch the same scenes over and ov...well, you get it. You want to earn some money while working, or restore energy while sleeping? Then good luck memorizing the timing of events! Because you will sleep through the story twist (which you have already learned multiple times) - and have to reset a day or move forward with a risk of failing. You want to have...just some fun playing this game? Nope, just click through the same clues. This becomes tedious. While it is fun for a couple of times, beating the game to 100% is boring. Which is sad, because I want to see everything it has to give, because it is hilariously good! I have checked, so out of 16 available stories I saw 11 in two runs. But I couldn't do the third run, sorry. Seeing the same stories again for the third time, while I have completed all routes didn't give me any reason to continue. Overall This is a great game. Would definitely recommend it to anyone. But as with all choices-matter kind of games you will feel bored before you see all of the outcomes.

Such a fun and entertaining game! Starts off a bit slow, but once you unlock more cameras, things get faster and way more engaging. The topics for each camera are interesting and pretty fun. Sometimes you miss the event timings while switching between cams and waste a bit of time... But you get the hang of it eventually. nothing too annoying.

The game is hilarious but it won't let you fully enjoy it! There's a requirement to buy lots of new cages every few days and if you don't do it the game just ends. I didn't know it was that harsh so I failed after the first level and had to start over. Then I failed at the end of the second level because I just couldn't afford it. Finally finished the game on my third try by taking lots of jobs, and missing out on so much story. It's super stressfull to have to grind money for cages, rent and food. If only you could buy cages and level up at your own pace, I feel like the game would be perfect then. Having more cameras is actually less fun, there's too much clicking around, everything happening at once, you can't tell what's going on anymore. I want to solve a few cases before I get 4 new ones. Also, you have to eat SO much food, I think I ate like 50 yoghurts in one go to fix my hunger and health. And then there's the need to sleep too. All I wanna do is sit there and creepily watch everything that is going on with these people (and try to help some of them), why can't I do that, whyyy. I only got to solve some of the cases, had almost solved a few more, had barely looked at another, and then suddenly the game ended. WHYYY, I was just getting started! I need more time, I need closure! It was fun while it lasted though. Maybe I'll try the other mode some time, but I like achievements. :/ Can we get a mode without a time limit please.

Underrated, fun game where you figure out what people you're watching are doing and decide what to do with said information. The only truly bad mechanic is missing people while you're out. You can go days without getting a package just because you weren't in the apartment at the right time. And when you do stay in the apartment to wait for the package, there's a huge time gap of when the mailman can come, messing up your schedule and potentially ruining your run for the day. If you can get over that, though, its very good!

I had no idea how to play this game or what to do for the first 3 hours so I abandoned it. Started playing it again using a guide and it makes way more sense. If there was a middle thumb I would pick that one because a game that I only found fun by using a guide isn't a game I'd want to recommend but it's still fun
