Ive been playing for 3 days, so perhaps, but theyve been 3 good days.

Even better if you play with friend(s). Lots of shit randoms out there.

Even having one friend in a room of 10 vastly improves the experience since you can work together to kick any shit people.

And don't cheat obviously.

I played it with my team from work. It's a good way to socialize while working from home.

The game is not interesting enough to be played with strangers.

Basically, like Fall Guys. Meme game.

It's $5 on Steam, so you can get some entertainment from it for a price of a large Starbucks (or a Wendy's 5 for $5 I guess).

Played it on phone (where it's free) but the virtual joypad sucks shit and the whole typing/etc. was slower on it than I liked, so I uninstalled it (but if you want to try it, it's decent enough to try that way).

Steam?

First game I played, did all tasks MUUUUUCH faster than phone. To the point where people thought I was the imposter because I got shit done before the imposter killed someone (because everyone was hanging around. :doge)

Yeah typing on the phone is horrendous. Not used to a landscape keyboard, so I struggle swiping to say the most basic things. When everyone is accusing you, its an issue.

Of course if its with a friends group, you can just talk on discord.

It's just a video game version of the social game Mafia/Werewolf.

Which already have videogame versions.
ALthough this must be doing something better, if it's so popular.

I never tried the old ones. But this one is very cheap/free, and integrates well with Discord to auto mute people and so on.

Also calling Fall Guys just a meme game is a bit harsh. It's legit great fun to actually play.
