Full play through 100% achievements w/ time stamps here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAFtZ4pMPIc7shdAdPV6Sgy_dHTUJGkCb Overall I think the game is good I'm not sure it's long enough or has enough to do to be worth 5.99, but it's a cute game that kids could enjoy it's pretty simple. EDIT: The creator was super responsive and fixed every complaint I had about the game it's short, but for the price of $5.99 it felt worth it.

We loved this game so much! Actually had us laughing out loud as we talked to the different characters. There are several quests, and whichever "solution" you bring to the quest prompts a different response which makes for an entertaining replay. Would be great for all ages and easy to learn. Loved the twist at the end, haha!

I'd been following the development of this game for about a month or two, and I'm glad to say how pleasantly surprised to say how such a small game was so enjoyable to play xD And when I say small, I mean concise more than anything. No exorbitant features, straight-forward gameplay. There are a couple of things that might be of concern like how some of the interactable items will sometimes simply fly way depending where you drop them, but that's not a game-breaking feature. The game is small, but feels alive and I can tell the devs had lots of fun getting this game together. Definitely give it a play, you'll get a good laugh from the humor and creativity of the devs as shown through the gameplay and dialogue of the NPCs!

This is one of those short-but-sweet experiences that causes a debate between whether or not the price is worth it. It is my opinion that I'd rather pay $10 for two good hours than $5 for twelve mediocre hours. And this game? This game was two good hours. The game is not perfect by any means (it could definitely benefit from having a run button), but it was an absolutely delightful journey through a colorful neighborhood, and if you're in the mood for something a little light-hearted to get you into the Halloween spirit this year, this is a great option.

pro: great humour good writing nice leveldesign and artstyle con: clipping candy animation with costums [strike] buggy achievments[/strike] (fast fixing developer) high price for short gameplay (around 45 to 60 minutes long) if you like to get a good laugh, get it for 50% off.

Short but some silly fun, was fun to solve the puzzles I only wish the game had a check-list you could check to see what you got left to do instead of having you re-check areas to make sure you not forgotten anything.
