Pronoun Trouble

I've been playing this game for just over a week now, and already the difficulty scaling is past where I find the rewards worth it. Most of the puzzles are around difficulty level 4 to 6 now, and I'm just not figuring enough of them out in the time limit I'm given. I'll still get some yarn when I finish the designated three puzzle set, but if I fail any of the puzzles, it's the lower quality yarn—even though the point total from all the puzzles, failures included, is higher than when I was playing the games on their lowest difficulty.

If I were getting more yarn per try, it might be worth it to me to keep playing. If the timers were more generous, it might be worth it to me. If I could choose which puzzles to play and which yarn to work towards, or if the difficulty scaling were a bit slower, it might be worth it to me. But at this point, I'll probably just play a few more days out of sunk cost fallacy driven hope, and then try to forget I even bought the damn game. Which is a shame, because I'd really love to have some sort of apartment-decorating game with the mechanics from the main room that I loved so much.

Honestly, I'd originally bought this game with the hopes of playing some of the puzzles with my niblings, but with how the game's set up, I'm not sure I'd even be able to reach all of the games, let alone be able to play in a way that didn't leave all of us frustrated in the end.

This disappointment aside, if Nintendo ever decided to put out a simple version of Voltorb Flip that works the same way as it does in HGSS, maybe for $2 or so, I'd buy that in a heartbeat. (They won't, they'd want to microtransaction and dark pattern the hell out of it, but that doesn't stop me from wanting it!)

Full title: Yeah! You Want "Those Games", Right? So Here You Go! Now, Let's See You Clear Them!

If you've played mobile games at all, you're probably familiar with bait-and-switch game ads: The ad will show you a quick "demo" of the game they're supposedly trying to get you to play, but when you download it, either the demo is not an accurate representation of the gameplay at all, or it's only a tiny side game, set between what's usually stages of a Match Three of some variety. On top of that, the fake game in the ad is being played infuriatingly badly, making viewers want to install the game just so they can finally have the satisfaction of seeing it done right.

Well, "Those Games" actually has those games from the ads! ( Five of them, in fact. And some weird gender stuff somehow, which I naturally care less for. )

Anyway, decent game with some flaws, and not as many levels for the games as players might like, but all of those could probably be fixed with some relatively minor patches. I would probably advise against paying full price for it ($10 USD), and suggest looking up old flash game archives instead.
