It's like Minecraft meets The Sims, and Shadow the Hedgehog is your best friend Absolutely love it! The Jumbo Demo gives you a really good feel for what to expect from the game, if you like that you'll love the full game.
Just do yourself a favor and avoid this. the first two acts are incredible, but the third act feels like it's made to make you realize that it's actually chock full of insane design decisions. Combat? it was fine until you have to fight wave after wave of enemies that have way more health than they should that destroy your castle and hard work every 30 seconds. Room size limit? Not a problem until they build you a platform and tell you to make it into a throne room. Oh wait? It's three times larger than you can actually build into a room? haha whoopsie. Thanks guys I hate your game now.
This game is so cute and fun. Absolutely love it. My only real nit-pick is that I just wish that I could quick skip through some of the dialogue.
