### 5/5 — So underrated

*2026-03-07, version 1.4.0*

Yeah its perfect for gen z and younger i love it so much

### 1/5 — Catfishing…

*2024-09-25, version 1.4.0*

Maybe I just don’t get it, but the whole thing makes no sense to me. The conversations don’t make sense, there is no point in scamming the bots or whoever. It’s time consuming and as I said pointless. But I am an old lady so maybe I’m just not understanding the whole thing!

### 5/5 — Lovely game

*2024-09-04, version 1.4.0*

Lovely game and I'd love to actually know more of the lore but I couldn't scam more than one them because I actually felt so horrible to do so

### 4/5 — Has good vibes :)

*2024-02-23, version 1.2.1*

I’m stuck on marketing level 21, so I can’t see the ending :(( but I think the game is great so far, I enjoyed the storyline and atmosphere and the background music and art is rly nice too. Only critiques I’d give are pacing is a bit slow, and I kinda wish the customisable characters were goats instead of humans, I feel like that would make it more unique compared to other character customisers I’ve played (also loved Gwendolyn’s character design and would have loved to see more like hers rather than just humans).

### 5/5 — Fascinating voyeurism

*2024-02-09, version 1.2.1*

If you’ve watched Catfish, this game is for you. You see how catfishing can be so easy with this game, which lets you experience it firsthand with no actual feelings involved. It’s a weirdly addictive, voyeuristic look at online emotional scammers.

### 1/5 — Garbage game

*2024-02-09, version 1.2.1*

Super boring and repetitive gameplay, weak storyline, chats that spew ridiculous nonsense, and worst of all- you can’t complete the game. At least, not without paying I assume. I’ve been trying for almost two weeks to beat this game, but the end boss never accepts the request. I’ve tried remaking the bot and letting the game sit closed for days at a time. I can only assume you have to buy the premium accessories. I’m definitely not wasting any of my money on this garbage. It’s funny that a game centered around scamming the characters is a scam itself.

### 2/5 — Nice game

*2024-02-07, version 1.2.1*

Have been playing for a few days, I love the artwork used and premise of the game is original and fun but I’m unsure what more is there to do in game. Set up bots and purchase levels, but nothing more.

### 2/5 — Stuck in jail

*2024-02-04, version 1.2.1*

How do you get out

### 5/5 — Ideaz here!💡💡💡

*2024-02-01, version 1.2.1*

You could add more things to do like selling junk so you can decorate your apartment.
You could design clothes and sell them at terrible prices and sell fake shoes and watches or something. 🤷

### 4/5 — Honestly not bad

*2024-01-29, version 1.2.1*

My only problem is that I’m at level 21 marketing, spoke to Gwendolyn and now I’m stuck in jail and have no idea what to do next? This took maybe 5 hours to complete…
