Oh my god this game is insufferable. Lemme break it down.
The characters are obnoxious and pompous. I've never told a game to shut up more in my life. The characters are all piss stains who come off as incredibly stupid people who believe that they're smart, most of the time. The writing is incredibly up its own ass with waxing psuedo-philosophy it becomes quite grating. Also, did the team not have enough male voice actors? Because there's a lot of demons with female voices that have male bodies. Like, linebacker demons that sound like princesses.
The mechanics are annoying. You walk right. That's about it. I'd like to say this has a good moral choice system, but it's a fucking straight line. No matter what you pick you keep moving forward. None of your decisions even come close to mattering. If you whiff outdrinking Satan he will give you infinite tries, so even the point of the game doesn't matter or pose any kind of challenge to it. It's ultimately quite a waste of time.
This game is glitchy as all hell, too. Plenty of times the models will vanish, the camera will go off somewhere during a cutscene, the dialogue will keep going when the game is paused, or my personal favorite, the map menu will be visible for a few frames and then vanish. Fun fun fun!
The worst sin this game commits is that it's not funny at all. Awkward fumbling into a mic does not make good improv. It's billed as a comedy but I couldn't bring myself to crack a smile for a second. Game stinks
If you like anything that's good, avoid this game, 100%. Maybe Night School Games doesn't make anything to my specific personal taste, but I honestly feel like I played a game where I ultimately gained nothing and completely wasted my time. I give it 1 and a half stars just because I like the premise. Drinking your way out of hell would have easily made for a good game done by literally anyone else.
