The Unintended Consequences of Curiosity

[b]the unintended consequences of curiosity[/b] looks like a cute little puzzle/adventure that works both as a single player experience and co-op for up to 4 players. the problem is, it's so buggy it barely works as anything. the game starts in a village where you live with your parents and apparently participate in unpaid child labor. you even have to make your own pickaxe, unheard of! at least some rocks drop gold and such, probably to be used later on something, but I didn't get that far. while hacking away at stones, you find a cave and accidentally freeze the entire population by breaking the snow globe inside, which in turn becomes a ranged weapon somehow. so you gotta travel south and fetch the eternal torch from a magma- and monster-filled cave and set things right. [b]it's a linear game but still somewhat open[/b], with the possibility to explore multiple regions in any order to gather stuff needed to progress into closed off areas. despite appearances, [b]nothing on the way...

me and my friend love this game but it is impossible to play we keep having to restart because it is so glitchy .

Got this game so my three kids can all play together on one screen. They are having a great time and spend a lot of time laughing and having fun while playing it. It's a pretty simple game, but that is what I was looking for anyway.

[i] My Experience [/i] Unfortunately, I picked this up prior to seeing Steam users come to a consensus on it. When my co-op partner and I finally tried to take it for a spin, only 54% of Steam reviewers were recommending the game. While I liked the "South Park" style of character models and found the movement animation charming, we too (like many other reviewers) ran into a game-breaking bug. Early in the game, we ran into a door that required three keys to open. Whenever I (the first player) picked up a key, it went into my inventory and then could be used as normal. Whenever my co-op partner picked up a key, however, it turned into another copy of the ice spell that was currently in his inventory. The key disappeared from the map, and he was unable to use the key to open the door in question. I could be mistaken, but it looked like there were only three keys in the areas of the game we had access to at the time, so we were effectively stuck. While I certainly respect the effort th...

It's a really cute game when it comes to the visuals and music. A lot of the puzzles are really interesting and fun to do and normally, we would be able to probably spend hours on this game. However, one thing (actually multiple things) that need to be addressed severely are the many, many, many, many, MANY bugs within this game. The controls are confusing and you have to guess what button is which on your controller. It's difficult to just start a game because it glitches repeatedly when trying to choose characters. When player 2 would attempt to scroll to select their character, they either could not scroll, could not select and the game would simply back us out to the Start menu, and/or the game would glitch, showing a shadow behind the character and it was a roulette to know who they were playing as. But you HAVE to choose the character you used previously as the items will only appear for that one character, especially the critical ones. Rimestone level, the hitboxes are rando...

I mean. It's ok. Could be better.

FUNNNN

Its short and charming, would be good parent/child bonding or even just with friends. Reminds me of so many things, but nothing else is quite exactly the same.
