I thought it was great, I really like the idea of this game and it comes across well, my only issue is that I hoped there was more of an "allegiance" modifier.
I was gaining the trust of one particular person so that they'd always defend me while I'm busy supporting others for their trust, but even though they almost completely trusted me and I always made a point of defending them whenever they were attacked, but then they go and turn against me, and since I've spent my time making that person trust me, no one was left to defend me and they certainly can't defend me against their own accusation.
It wasn't that they didn't trust me, it was more that the ones whom attacked you were the ones who already trusted you.
Either way, I think this game is great and I'm definitely looking foward to a sequel.
Very well done.
I find your games are becoming increasingly hit and miss, Nitrome.
This one is another miss for me unfortunately.
While your games are great for what they are, they just don't seem to grab me anymore and I find myself playing your games now because it has your name on it and for no other reason.
May I suggest making a game that you feel genuinely invested in? I'm not saying you don't care anymore, but there isn't that old Nitrome flare in your newer games that you had previously, it sort of feels as though you're going through the motions and making games because you have to instead of wanting to.
Anyway, just my honest opinion.
In short, 6/10 and 3/5
But there is a game killing bug for me. When you control the fairies and ask Hansel to either walk left or walk right, he gets stuck and he just hits me. I can't control anything anymore, even though I've been given the option to go and talk with the other one, I still can't move.
But there are many glitches, for example, I visited all the houses I could in the main village, and placed the pot on the stove that I lit. I then went searching around for the formula that the character mentioned, I reached the stable, and now I can't click anything at all.
The game is very enjoyable, I love the simplistic feel to it.
My main issue is that the things left to chance never really are, I struggled to get past the first floor because it always seems as though everything is working against you.
Improving your chances of winning would definitely improve the game overall, and make this game one of the best on Newgrounds by far.
This game has a lot of potential, but the difficulty that you face upon even entering the area becomes almost too much.
I really like the game, the voice acting really made the game and brings a personal feel to it, but here's what broke for me.
1) The zombies can sometimes travel through walls
2) Once Mimi had joined, both of my allies were instantly destroyed
3) There was a kind of conga line of zombies once my allies had died that was unbeatable, and when I finally did muster up enough strength to take them down, I had the option to buy Mimi, which I didn't, and now both my allies remained dead, and the game froze and has remained like this.
Either way, I hope it gets fixed and congratulations on a great game!
I think if we can't laugh about something, how are we meant to deal with it and move on?
It's such a good game if you want a quick giggle, and that's why I'm 10 starring it.
Oh, and to all the people complaining... ONE person was killed by the plane impact, so two people died.
Stop making a mountain out of a molehill.
But ever since you fixed stock market crash, one of the unlockables has broken.
It's the one titled, 'Piece of Cake'...
It get's to the Rick Roll and then breaks, any chance you could fix it?
I couldn't get into this game because of the heavy duty CPU and RAM consumption.
The graphics were astounding, literally, a pleasure to watch, but without a mute button for the good, although repetitive music, I found myself becoming frustrated very quickly.
I played in both styles and M-Bot became very unresponsive rather quickly, being clunky and slow in the face of such a fast paced game didn't seem to work out well.
The upgrade system needs work, the extremely fast speed of this game made me lose upgrades almost instantly through no fault of my own.
For example, I managed to hold on to the triple firepower upgrade for around 15 seconds before it was taken from me without any good reason other than I tripped over a tin can left on the floor.
The reason I say it requires a heavy duty computer is because when I tried to exit it, my computer seemed to behave as though I just gave it an order to smoke a cigarette and then proceeded to freak out on me.
So if it is possible, could you put in an option for low quality?
I know it would take away the sheer sexiness of the time gone into that beautiful piece of art, but it would be the only way I could play without my computer behaving like a wanker.
Personally, I really liked it, but I can't help thinking that it could have been faster.

I agree about giving the quality button a shot,
Ill ask frosted what can be done.
thanks for the review.
