What players think
The recurring themes across 221 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
As a result, working on spreadsheets, writing emails, or gaming late into the night all feed the Buddy’s growth and unlocks.
including making your own stuff, provided a little bit of drawing ability (or a friend with it) is present. super worth the price, the fact that you can lobby with your friends is even better, within minutes of opening for the first time myself i bought it for multiple friends. feels really fun to parallel play with people doing things separate on our own PCs while having this open on the side. the exchange feature for your items is very fun too and makes the collecting feel more interesting than random rolls. brings an insane amount of joy to see little guys hitting the keyboard while i do other things.
A vastly superior alternative to bongo cat, not just in input display (buddy moving the mouse or banging a controller never gets old), but also in item variety, drop rate, and customization.
It's mostly issue to use, aside from some of my friends having a few problems with the inputs registering on the app (which may have been related to Linux) but is otherwise seemless.
