Worth buying? What 300 Steam reviews say.Worth buying? Here’s what 300 Steam reviews actually say.
A cute, content-rich free monster collector with Twining, exploration and housing. Skip it if undisclosed AI art, a kernel anti-cheat with trackers, energy limits or weak co-op bother you.
Great for
Solo players who like cozy monster collecting, exploration and base building, and tolerate a free-to-play shop
Main risk
Undisclosed kernel anti-cheat and trackers left after uninstall, plus undisclosed AI assets
300 recent reviews
Many recent negatives cite a kernel-level anti-cheat and startup trackers that remain after uninstall, plus undisclosed AI. Others report server lag and Egg Heist problems. Positive reviews mostly focus on gameplay.
