I’ve been enjoying it. I’d recommend a try, but not for the full sticker price. I’m pretty sure there’s a free demo available.
A simple start-to-finish (any%) run is super duper easy, but some of the mechanics are pretty fun and the cinematic element makes me smile a lot. But you could prolly get a good feel for the latter just watching videos of playthroughs.
However… A 100% run can be VERY frustrating. The cute cinematics are mostly unskippable – you can’t even button-mash to speed up the dialog. Also, the stages don’t really allow for backtracking. So if you miss something, you have to start all the way back at the beginning. I got stuck on one stage and put off playing for weeks cuz it was so annoying. “Welcome to the Spooky Party”, grrr…
Once I got past that though, it got fun again (and inspired this post hehe). The post-game challenges have been pretty neat so far.

So it’s what I expected. I’ll get it on discount or used when possible, I’d like to avoid 70€ price tag (that’s how much full priced games cost in my country). Thanks.
