TL;DR : Your kid will enjoy this game. You probably won't.
I gave up upon getting mid-way into the second level. It's just so linear. There's nothing really new, it's a basic 3D platformer with Spongebob's universe plastered on it. The controls aren't satisfying at all, and I often fought with them to make Spongebob do what I wanted him to do.
There's no reasons to farm the ressources other than to unlock costumes. The collectibles only allow you to unlock even more costumes. The game has a whole 'We couldn't finish in time' vibe, which is saddening and is seemingly becoming a norm nowadays.
The rhythm of the game and jokes just feels... off. It's as if they made this game thinking this was just another Spongebob episode. Which makes some interactions just so clanky.
One perfect example is a random fish PNJ saying 'Oh boy, they sure beat me up bad!', then cut to the famous overly detailed pictures that we can get in the show, without any sound, music or any kind of ambiance. The frame stays on until you actually press on a button. It's just so incredibly off.
It's visually enjoyable however, and I'd even dare to say charming. My sister is having a blast with the game. But I won't.

A fantastic brief little experience. The game is available on a browser for free and I absolutely recommend it.
It talks of mental health issues and helped me when I was in a wrong spot in my life. It's visually gorgeous, the animation is eye-candy, the art style is lovely, the musics are incredible.
You'll finish it in around an hour or two.

Definitely a strong game. I was hyped by someone telling me this was some sort of Stanley Parable. While it didn't quite meet my expectations, and is definitely not a 'Stanley Parable' like at all, I had fun playing the game!
As someone studying computer sciences, some of the references are even more enjoyable, such as the fact that the processes names all start by PID and a number, which is actually how a process is identified in your computer!
The game mechanics are satisfying, the puzzles aren't too hard, maybe a bit too easy. The voice acting quality is pretty spot on for an indie game, one of it's weak point being Alex's voice, imo.
Wasn't fond of the stealth part, too.
Had a few issues with controls towards the end of the game with some newer mechanics, also had to restart the game because the subtitles didn't match what was being said (plus visual tearing, maybe an issue on my side, overheating, idk)

Porn scenes aside, this story really connected with me. I needed an Amicus (charcter of the game) in my life when I played this game. I genuinely cried like a baby, something that didn't happen in a long time.
It's touching, it's revolting. It plays with your feelings for the "love-interest?" in the game.
I'd totally understand if you brush this off because of the art style, porn and furry stuff but just know that this game is more than that.

It's such a shame honestly. The writing of this game is stellar, especially the conversations. The choices I can make feel like they have a point and a consequence.
I often found myself absorbed, really living the story through the characters. To the point where some situations hit a bit too close to home and made me reflect on life, it's purpose and all that. That's pretty strong from a game honestly.
But that's the issue, as a 'game' i's pretty tedious. Walking around is extremely slow and you sometimes have lots of backtracking to do (two scenes in particular).
Another thing is that, this behind a prelude, the end doesn't fall flat, something that I didn't like in the first game. The whole thing connects a bit better.

Stay away from this game for your own good. It's sad because the game itself isn't BAD. But it's addicting. And the community is the worst I have ever faced in a video game.
2016
I was unfortunately too dumb to go beyond 4 hours into the game.
I personally can't stand horror like Amnesia or Outlast with otherworldly creatures and/or jumpscares. However, I enjoy thrilling games with deductions and murders, making it a weird combo, hard to find in video games.
This game is one of such combos.
I could enter into great details about the game, but it's just so good at what it does. It can be kind of slow sometimes however.

I got into this game because of a friend around the end of BFA. I simulatnously thank and hate him. The sessions I had with him and some other friends were so much fun. The unviers is very captivating, enchanting, and ffs, I can be a motherfucking werewolf of fox man!
SL was a pain, I don't even want to talk about that period. I kept playing because my ex-girlfriend was.
But the game gets boring. Extremely quickly. And dropping around 80€ to get in a few dozens of hours of gameplay isn't worth it for me. I definitely regret paying for Dragonflight.

The perfect followup to Undertale. The gameplay is extremely crisp and satisfying, the visuals have immensely improved compared to it's predecessor. Musics are still an absolute blast. I'm just aching for more content.

So, I'm going against the current of average reviews here : this game was just tedious. Initially, it starts amazingly, but as the rogue like aspect kicks in, it's just a pain. There's an heavy RNG aspect in the beginning that stacks against you.
I actually cheated and gave myself levels with Cheat Engine (I just don't like grinding in solo games) and the game was still tedious because you have to get lucky and spawn into a favorable loop where a lot of tiny parameters out of your control are aligned.
I had to restart a loop like, 10 times, for one specific event and I just gave up at that point and watched the ending on Youtube because the story still got me curious.

I love this game, it's my go to game for when I want to just chill while watching some videos in the background. However, the subscription model kills it for me. I bought a 3 year classic one that will soon come off, and it's just frustrating that I couldn't just pay and own the game
2015
This game is such a unique experience and I have yet to experience something like this in a video game again. It, in all honesty, doesn't deserves 5 stars on a gameplay standpoint, but boy, did this game leave a mark on me. It's a game that'll either be a complete hit or miss.
2018
Gave it around 10 hours. Not really my types of games so I won't expand much. Was a fun way to kill 10 hours with a friend, but dropped it quickly.
This is the mix of genres where I'm the exact niche player-base. I never thought something like this could exist and I love it.
The ideas are incredible, mixing rhythm and party game together is awesome. The game is able to stay fresh for a few hours but it loses it's strength the more it goes.
I did reach the "final boss" but you need to actually 3 star every levels to get to the true ending and hell no. This is absolutey impossible to do as a solo player. Or would takes dozens of hours I'm not willing to sink in this game because it just gets frustrating at some point.
