It's hard to get into this game casually with friends compared to the real thing. The game pushes for many restrictions that kinda goes against the original's design, and many of it's anti-frustration features are locked behind "donations"-- at that point it's not a donation anymore??
I get you need to accomodate to MMO mechanics to adapt the original games to, well, a MMO, but it crosses a fine line where it just becomes annoying. Maybe it's just not meant to be, by design.

Good music and graphics can only do so much when the overall gameplay loop is absolute crap riddled with game-breaking bugs and ridiculous puzzles that begs you to look up the solution online. My first real gaming disappointement, it's like this game doesn't even want you to play it

This game's quality is through the roof. The variety in games, the depth most of them provide and the pick-up and play nature of it goes really well for parties, hehe. But not all games are given the same level of love, and it's a bit weird that I can't play Solitaire without my Switch heating up like a miniature sun.
