Let's get this out of the way: the game is fun, specially during the early parts, and it has charm and some references. It can get really slow at the endgame, but still, a fun experience (sometimes frustrated by bugs)

However, I'm making a negative review for a couple of reasons:


-The game has pretty much been abandoned, even though some updates were planned. It still has a lot of bugs, some of which are pretty annoying and even game breaking. Multiplayer update? Yeah, that's never coming despite being hyped up. Nothing else is coming.

-The dev is an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, there is no other way to put it. When the game just came out he was spamming his game everywhere to the point of being annoying. I understand being enthusiastic about your project, but it was too much, "Forager is the best game ever!", "I love my game, buy it!", "My favourite videogame is the one I created!", and such.

But that's not the worst part, he mistreated his employees and supporters: blamed everyone except himself, got uppity about any criticisms and banned you from Discord or Steam's discussion board, threw his employees under the bus when things got bad, he also underpaid them, wanted to claim he was a "solo dev" and the list goes on.

You can search for yourself if you want to know. The dev eventually went back a few steps and claimed he was to blame, but it looked more like a PR move than anything sincere.


I regret paying for this game.
