This is one of the most half-finished, janky, and weirdly designed games I have ever played. The pacing is odd if you actually want to explore areas as you find them, the story elements they've added to the series in this entry seem like they were not able to be naturally integrated into the gameplay, and the map is the single worst I have ever seen in a game.

Despite all this, I somehow found myself playing several dozen hours to get every achievement, ending, and secret there is to find; DLC included. There really is no way to explain it to someone who hasn't played the game, but it has some quality about it that makes it so alluring. The gorgeous and unique style, the incredible voice acting, the new animatronics, the many hidden goodies everywhere which beg to be collected. Not to mention the heaps of content which were cut from the gameplay but are still present in the files asking to be unearthed.

All this is to say, I have not had an "experience" like this in a game, maybe ever before. Being unable to explain its je ne sais quoi, I would encourage you to buy it and play it all the way through. You might just get sucked back into revisiting the Pizzaplex like me.

This game is the most trash thing in the world

just run.
