What players say

Players have mixed feelings about City of Fools, a quirky point-and-click with hidden object elements. Many enjoy the humor and odd charm, but others find it tedious with excessive backtracking and fetch quests. The ending is widely considered unsatisfying, and the game feels low-budget.
