unfortunately it's really good. I wanted to hate it or disregard it but it had me in a chokehold in the first 40 minutes.

this game grabbed me in a way lethal company did not. There's so much more potential for comedy when you start involving physics. Yeah, sure there are monsters, and yeah they're not *that* scary. But the tension you feel when all of your friends have died and you need more money before you can leave is so real. Also the way that you can instead spend the money you could have gotten by smashing a monster with a vase or something that you wanted to sell is real too. When you accidentally torch your friend to death by grabbing the wrong part of a flamethrower will never not be funny. It's the way that you aren't managing resources, you're trying to be quick and efficient without dying or breaking ♥♥♥♥. The gameplay loop is incredibly satisfying. highly recommend if you have friends.

It's good. It's got a better core gameplay loop than stardew valley. Running a tavern is fun, and it's not just about making a number go up.
