Sooo slooow. Continuous spoon feeding. Disruptive annoyances/cutscenes overshadow any cuteness and happiness the visuals and animations try to establish.

+ Cute characters
+ Great variance
+ Positive/Colorful atmosphere
* Playthrough ~3h
* Stylistic face is confusing; nose looks like a mouth leading to repeated misreading
* Activities are pretty basic; driven by the humorous, cute, and varied characters
* Some of the interactions seemed bad to control
- Pretty much every activity is introduced, filled, and concluded with cutscenes disrupting gameplay
- Character animation, speech bubbles, and subtitles often mismatch due do intertwining states
- Character selecting works bad at best (specifically in the 3D world)

listed positives with +, neutrals with *, negatives with -

When you’re already annoyed, control gets taken away yet again, and four characters say and do the same thing one after the other, each for 3 or 4 seconds; I don’t get it what they were going for. It seems pretentious and forceful, with no regard for interactive game design, or any mindfulness on . Maybe others don’t experience it this bad. But to me, through disruption, taking control away, and spoon feeding, it was an annoying experience through and through.

I like absurd, colorful, happy worlds, but any setup this had for it with cute charaters, animations and interactions was completely negated with the 80% of the time waiting and getting annoyed. Too bad. A less restrictive, less forceful approach would have made this game a lot better.

I guess it’s probably a misuse/misattribution of the adjective :)

Just getting into this one and already noticing the "control gets taken away" aspect of this.

Character selection is already a bit funky, but there is a logic to it I can see and understand.

"Pretentious" is not something I'd ever use to describe this game. Not even in the first 200 adjectives I'd use for it, lol. not sure where that came from.
