Trojan-like behavior. Dangerous. Avoid.
I came into this game completely blind, as many said I should. I highly discourage others from doing the same. To be blunt about it, this game has a hidden gameplay section that exhibits the same apparent gameplay mechanics as the infamous Windows trojan virus Lose/Lose. That is to say, there's a gameplay section that asks you to select actual files from your PC, creates in-game cards of them based on the selected file's actual characteristics, and ONLY THEN promises explicitly to delete the files if the cards are lost. The game takes itself extremely seriously, so I have no idea if this section is simply a reference made in poor taste or an actual threat against the user's data. All I can say is that it isn't appropriate to threaten people's files in a way that circumvents antivirus protections and user backups. Even if this implementation is somehow harmless, we shouldn't be encouraging complacency with actual real-world viruses by explicitly copying their most dangerous behaviors. Either the developers need to explicitly clarify that there's no actual risk to user data, both in-game and out on the store page, or this section of the game needs to be removed. I absolutely cannot recommend the purchase or usage of this product until this is very directly and explicitly addressed.
Is this helpful to you?
