The game received "unfavorable" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[1]

gollark: Creating it needs to set the title and whatever.
gollark: Well, updating it just needs to send new content (the block thing is not yet implemented).
gollark: Different, mostly.
gollark: Also, I am annoyed by SQLite for reasons so it'll use an accursed in-memory database design (with SQLite for persistence still, as it is very robust).
gollark: Specifically, I wanted to be able to do stuff like checklists.
