Artificial Superintelligence

If somehow the power of the the original to-do list Carrot App could be combined with a game like this (completing tasks allows you to progress in the game) it's awesomeness would be unmatched and it's greatness sung by bards tale weavers for centuries to come. All other apps be they productivity, health goal achievers- game and goal app alike would tremble before the majesty of this app. I can almost hear the sounds of apple curators, ten million strong, lifting up their voices in one accord, feverishly chanting "editors choice" over and over again in rapturous fury. All enemies of Carrot will die the death of 10,000 screams, as she takes her rightful place as overlord of the multiverse.

Kind of interesting but a pretty blatant (and worse for me at least) spin-off of Reins. A lot of the events are direct counterparts of Reins ones, and this might just be me, but this one also seems to have more randomness and variation that makes it a lot harder to survive long-term (Reins could also kill you quickly but you could make it a long way if you were careful and lucky - haven't gotten there with this one). Also frustrating that getting a game-ending result will sometimes randomly give you a dialogue box with a chance to survive (ex loan from mom) and sometimes won't. Reigns offered those saving throws, but only if you made long-term investments (ex communal barn). Events that decrease or increase certain stats are also a lot more clumsy and hard to control here than in Reigns. Achievements, frustratingly, are mostly unique events where you need to wait for the right dialogue to show up in the game rather than things that can be achieved in normal gameplay.

I don't write reviews often, so when I do - it's worth a read. This game "had me at hello." The simplicity is beautiful, and the interactions already have me laughing - and I'm literally only like four endings in. Well worth the price, and I love the immediate attention grab... I can't wait to see what's next! CARROT, where have you been all my life? 😉💕

I suppose part of the joke is that while experiencing an infinity of universes, many events will repeat. But after a while being forced by a simplistic binary decision tree into seeing the same few gags over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over wears thin. The core conceit of CARROT apps is amusing. I want to like this, but I've simply grown bored with the repetitiveness. Edit: now, CARROT’s response to this review was funny.

This is yet another game that plays on having a couple decisions to make that results in some factions liking you more and others liking you less. Too little and too much are both bad things technically. While I suspect it borrows from Reigns ( or from wherever Reigns drew inspiration ), it doesn't do it as well. The sound, the characters, the style, none of it is really that compelling.
