I admit that I'm curious about it. These days just about everything I play is serious or dark so something funny would be nice.

If you like the humor of Rick & Morty and or Solar Opposites it's probably going to be hilarious.

The graphics, the music, the forced humor, the morty voice, the lack of sound effects, all seem to be clashing in an extreme bad way. This is a hard pass for me.

I like Rick and Morty (when it's actually new episodes), so yes I will enjoy this I think.

I totally agree. Horror games and dark souls like games are taking over lately, so this would be a nice change of pace.

I'm not super fan or anything, but I find the series strangely chuckle worthy on occasion.

I think it is the absurdism that does it.

In a way the show reminds me of the works of Douglas Adams.

I haven't read the Hitchikers Guide since I was 12 or 13, but I do remember it being hilarious

The pacing is what gets me. It's impressive how quickly they get the jokes out. Reminds me of the hey-day of Robin Williams(RIP).

As a child of the 70’s I was part of the many who became enthralled by the video arcade invasion of the 1980’s. Saving money from various odd jobs I purchased my first computer from a friend of my dad, a used Atari 400, around 1982. Eventually it would end up being a lifelong passion of upgrading and modifying equipment that, of course, led into a career in IT support.
