* OvershadowedByControversy: As noted under AudienceAlienatingPremise, in the years following this game's release, some of the [=YouTubers=] who appeared in this game got caught up in their own controversies, which had the side-effect of hurting this game's reputation. As such, it's difficult to talk about this game without at least bringing up those controversies, even if you don't wish to make it the focus of your review.

** Aging the game even worse is Jirard, aka the Completionist, undergoing his own accusations of his Open Hand Foundation not donating any of the money to dementia research like they said they would. The drama remains unresolved at the time of writing, but it certainly didn't help the game's already damaged reputation.
