April 2025
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

Nothing but monkey business so far Just your average Joe trying to come by every day, juggling the chaos of daily survival. Which is observing the enclosures for the club, completing assignments from the higher-ups, working part-time to scrape by, paying the damn rent, and keeping up with the basic human necessities like sleep and food. It might be a stretch having to work quickly, but it will work out in the end if you play your cards right. Manage your time right, connect those dots, learn something interesting from the sapiens, act, and exert your influence if necessary. It is one heck of a ride playing this game; it is worth the time if you like to observe.

Fun but disappointingly short and small in scale. This game has a real sense of "wow this is going alright so far, but if this keeps growing the way it has been, this is going to get intense and difficult to manage", but it ends before you get to anything that crazy. I was really hoping to be stretched thin beyond my limits trying to manage a few dozen cameras across a 24 hour schedule while trying to find time to take care of my vitals... but it simply never gets there. And the game is even simpler than it initially seems since a good portion of the monitors have dead, non-events that just take up space. Again, what you get from the game is really good, but there just isn't that much of it.
