Review of Lost in Time by Owen
1 May 2024
You’re so based for that, Tian.
First I was happy. “Oh nice, a Doctor Who game for on my phone!” I thought. Silly me. Then I deleted it in the first five minutes.
I don’t have anything against these types of farming games. I like Hay Day. This stuff can work. Difference is that Hay Day was made by people that wanted to make a good game. This is painfully obviously created to bank in on the FOMO and nostalgia of Doctor Who fans.
It’s made to exploit the love people have for this franchise. It’s not made to be a fun game. It’s a lot of waiting, and keep checking in for the daily bonuses to collect all the rare collectibles that are worth nothing if you think about it for more than 10 seconds.
Because they know that at some point there will be fans like you and me downloading this, but who don’t uninstall the app. Who will go through all this stuff, because “oh, it’s Doctor Who, I love Doctor Who so much!” so they give their time and money to it, and that’s all the company wants.
I just hate these kinds of things, with everything programmed to make it as addictive as possible, and then also use it to exploit the trust and love people have for a franchise.
‘Game’ sucks. Would give a -12 out of 3000
