Tallima: Worth a play for me b/c I like playing anything that's unique -- just to see if I like it.
Ixamyakxim: I think this is what drew me to it (along with liking the stealth / roguelike mechanics) but some of your impressions are what I was worried would happen for me as well. Thank you for the write up!
So, I need to be walked off the ledge here...
I'm considering buying Hunie Pop (or whatever it's called). Now before you stop speaking to me, hear me out.
This isn't a genre I'm a fan of (matching games) but I LOVED Puzzle Quest. Fantastic, amazing game that when I heard of it thought "What a stupid idea" - until I played it, at which point I couldn't believe how creative and brilliant the designers were.
So I look at a few screenshots for this one, and it sort of gives me that Puzzle Quest vibe - but I really dislike the premise and backdrop of the game. I feel like I'll need to shower after playing it. Is it that bad, or do I need someone to talk me out of this, stat?
I saw the PuzzleQuest-ness of it, too. But I'm with you. I don't need that kind of influence in my life. It's also, by what I'm seeing, not adult in any mature fashion. It's just icky-looking. So it's a no for me. Personally, I'd like it if they took it off the front page. I quit going to it at work b/c I didn't want peeps thinking I was porning it up at work.
