User reviews
I quite like the game. I had downloaded Underworld Office (OW) before, so I had a foundation for how good these games were when I started. I'm currently playing Not exactly a Hero, and the art style is just as pretty as ever - it even has the same five to twenty second ads in OW! There are freezes from time to time, but my devices experiences crashes often and even so this game hasn't overloaded it. This occupies minimal space, is easy maintenance and a lot of fun to play. 4/5 stars overall.

I rlly like it and the only think I'd complain about is the ticket system, but you can play through the whole game without it being too much. The problem is if you want to play again and get different endings. Btw the ticket system is an ad that gives you 40 tickets to make decisions that cost tickets

I adored it. You do have to watch ads for more tickets because they don't automatically recharge but they need to make money and I understand that. However this was so good because it had multiple routes. I finished one route but when I realized there was more I replayed everything but the thing is with every replay, something changes with dialogue or something so it's not too boring for the similarities. One of the best games, I'm obsessed
