Pretty cool complementary game to DashBored.
You don't have to play DB to know what's going on but I think it enhances the overall experience if you have some background already for these characters.

Aside from that, the main draw to this game is definitely the story and the world it tries to show you.
Weird, wonderful and downright grotesque imagery and themes sprinkled throughout. Absolutely delightful presentation in that regard.
The soundtrack is also great and the battle theme is a BANGER. (I can say the same for DashBored too)

The only real problem with this game is honestly the puzzles.
Some of them are either balls to the wall hard and unforgiving (ball puzzle near beginning) or just straight up unfair (like that mansion one), which sadly dampens the overall enjoyment as well as pace of the game. I can definitely see why people were getting frustrated with them.
If you can look past them somehow, game's a fun ride otherwise and it even has 2 endings.

I enjoyed NashBored overall however, and if you're a fan of DB, give this one a go.
