“it's an alright game, and I like the colourful world they've created. It's pretty short but since it has multiple parts it's to be expected. Don't expect some masterpiece it's not on the same level as Poppy Playtime but…”
“Once you learn how to beat the first boss, you start to fly through the game. I'm glad I was able to beat it in such a short time, although maybe one day I'll go back and 100% it. Life changing experience, I do not…”
“even theow it was short I enjoyed it and everyone need to stop calling every mascot horror a poppy playtime ripoff”

“It's free, it's a good start, it doesn't compare to the others.”
“it's pretty good for a free game, if you like the puzzles then get the second one. if you don't have money then watch someone else play on youtube and dream about it.”
“A low-budget horror game very inspired by Poppy Playtime. It's kinda neat, and one moment was actually pretty scary. It's [i]very[/i] short, but it's also free.”

“One of the best games I have ever played. It has completely changed my life, thw world is outstandingly beautiful and the pink bird actually scares me, the puzzles are revolutionary. I highly recommend this game, I just…”
“The game is 3 years old; I thought it came out just a year ago. It has a very good story, but the game is not very scary, so it's an average game because in horror games, scariness is essential. However, since it was…”

“I'm not even going to begin with the hatred I have for this game. This game's soul purpose was to make money. Not to be good, but to make money. This game has stained the mascot horror genre, and spits in it's face. The…”

— a player, Steam review · 0 hrs played“The Garten of Banban is a visual masterpiece. In my 26 years of life, I have never been more moved by a single piece of media. Garten of Banban's graphics, audio, and optimization should be the industry standard for gaming for the next 5 decades. This game has restored my faith…”
— a player, Steam review · 0 hrs played“Starts with a resolution of 1280x720, menu music makes your ears bleed, air control is basically non-existent models are highly unoptimised. Overall not a very good game (or game series at all)”
