Mobile Device needed....
It was looking interessting, so I wanted try without reading more on the Steam page. I couldn't do anything, there was nothing to click on to start. I saw four . and some AI Icons on the buttom and that was it. On the second try I saw a number but even then it wasn't working or starting anything. From what I saw, it only works if I connect somewhere else with a phone to enter the number.. well good try, but sorry no.

It said Singleplayer, but currently I don't see it, especially if I need another tool (mobile phone/tablet) which I don't have, to play this.

It´s not my type of thing either. It´s an interesting Game design but I don´t know why you need an mobile phone for this. I mean you just need the website and nothing more so you could play this on PC, Mobile, Tablet, and everything that has an Internet Browser.

Thanks for giving it a try, even if it wasn't what you were expecting.

The game is intended as a party game, similar to games like Jackbox Party Pack, which is why we're using the mobile devices as controllers. We later added singleplayer support in case people wanted to try it that way, but it still requires the browser for now. You are able to play it on a desktop browser as well though, so you don't need to have a phone per se.

We would like to add a feature where you can play inside the game client in the future though, but unfortunately this will take quite a lot of time to develop, so we are unsure when we will have that ready.

Hope that helps!

You could just use the browser on your PC....

Why is this even on steam if you can't play it here? Please take it down.

Hey @Vanhal,

Your comment is understandable, we hoped we made it clear enough that the game is played through a browser window.

To clarify again:
"The game is intended as a party game, similar to games like Jackbox Party Pack, which is why we're using the mobile devices as controllers. We later added singleplayer support in case people wanted to try it that way, but it still requires the browser for now. You are able to play it on a desktop browser as well though, so you don't need to have a phone per se."

Best played with your friends behind a big screen or through VoIP services like Discord.

We hope that you'll give it a go and see the potential.

Cheers

The Dev team.

As a single-player type of guy, sounds like I need to remove this from my wish list, at least for now.

Just so I understand your ludicrously entitled request, you're essentially saying "I'm not your customer, I'm never going to be your customer, so you should do as I say!"

Are you ok? Do you need help with simple tasks? There are MANY party games on Steam that RUN ON STEAM and use phones or tablets as individual controllers because each player needs their own screen. But maybe they should all be taken down so we can't play them because... why was it again... oh yeah, because you don't get it.

yeah a shame, never seen a game force you to download the game and use your mobile phone, game will probably flop on release.

Where are you clowns coming from? How have you never heard of JackBox? Go play something else, this is a party game, it's for people who have friends. :fscared:
So, just to explain for all who seem confused. You can play this game on a mobile or tablet. You can also play this game via a browser. This is a party game designed around playing with five other people, however you can also play against some very unpredictable A.I players, so there is a single player option.

maybe he wrote that because it doesn't belong on steam...
