Pre-School Teacher Crisis
Want to know, how it's to be a pre-school teacher?! This is how and in this demo, you only take care of four children! It's a chaos but it made me smile. It makes me understand the pre-school teacher crisis in Germany better, just that these pre-school teachers seem to be invicinble to any sort of dirt and illness. My current office room is next to our toilet. It means incredible immersion, smelling the poop from the toilet in that moment when I had to clean up the brown spatters from the diaper change. The game idea is hilarious and you can play alone or with up to 3 friends. It's a management game, therefore I was skeptical first but controls are easy. You get points for doing pre-school teacher work and for keeping the room clean. The stress level wasn't high in the demo. I did not achieve the best score in cleanliness but helping children is more fun(ny) than I thought. It kept me busy. It was not hard for me to get into the flow. Graphics are quite okay, using an cartoon-like visual design. Also audio. The demo is quite short. I only remember it having three rooms. But it has usable indicators and keyhints. The game runs fine on Wine with Garuda Linux (just the internet browser did not open for showing the shop page). I give this a 4.5 of 5, -0.5 because it was not immediately clear that you can only nlavigate using WASD and space in the menu and it has no game related options. Luckily, I didn't feel like needing to tweak any performance settings. Not being able to set custom keybindings adds some inconvenience. If you haven't a standard QWERT-like keyboard, you need to switch your keyboard Layout in your OS or use another key remapping program. Input Remapper is pretty good on Linux. But creating the config needs extra time. Controls are okay in the demo but I smell, it could get more annoying in more stressful situations, that you use the same key for collecting and dropping things. If you press too early or too often. Game is quite okay.
