I couldn't play more than 20 minutes of this game on PS5. It just isn't fun to me.

I second finishing the game before making any final judgments, however you could argue some of the deeper themes and the bodily transformations can err a bit on the darker side.

Anyway, I at least was wary from the time Filbo ate the first strabby. Any sort of side effects are somewhat anxiety inducing. I imagine most would feel the same if applying IRL logic instead of video game logic.

In that case, I am kind of surprised you are here talking about it. However, no harm no foul. It may just not be a game for you. No shame in that.

I mean the ending of this game is what really is unexpecting taking in consideration the general cutesy feel of the game. But, well, no spoilers

I know. I have over 20 hours in the game. (However, the ending was the least surprising part to me. I didn't expect... Actual emotions and relationships between the grumpuses. I never really expect it from a game, but I was really pleasantly surprised.)

Well, spamming the "Psychological-Horror"-tag on cutesy looking games is a meme on Steam. It's what you get, if you give control to the internet people. But having finished it on another platform already, but without spoiling anything, i'd say...it kinda fits.

If you've only played 20 minutes of the game then I can understand why the psychological horror tag won't make sense to you, and the vast majority of the game doesn't fit into that category but if you ever see the ending then the tag does fit.
Even if you make it to some of the town parties you might get a sense of what it is building to.

Just play it and find out
