Superb voice acting and animation! The puzzles are easy to understand and fun to do! Also, I purposely die many times just to hear the fantastic voicelines!

If anyone plays this before Imaginary Friend Asylum, I can bet it would pique their curiosity about the lore and want to know the story of these incredible friends! The Bathroom and Courtyard are my favorite levels and it's a fun bonus challenge to try and defeat them all on Ladder Mode and Friend Rush! I enjoy playing multiple times to do so!

Really great game; I loved all the models of the Friends. I enjoyed the uniqueness of each level, it definitely prevented the game becoming monotonous by repeating the same mechanics.

I'm really curious who we are exactly, since we seemed to have a connection to the Asylum. Good job on the game, I'm looking forward to playing through Asylum!

There's a sequel (actually a prequel) to this game and it basically tells you who you are in the past! Thank you, Grant Marrs!
