YMMV / Armikrog

• Awesome Music: Courtesy of Terry Scott Taylor once again.
• It's Short, So It Sucks!: A common criticism. Not helped by the fact that most of puzzles repeat, which feels like blatant padding.
• Player Punch: It's safe to say that many people were staring at their screens in distressed horror when Vognaut vaporized Beak Beak.
• So Okay, It's Average: Most reviews of the game agree that it has charm, some good writing, and a fun world, but that it's sorely dated, having many of the same flaws as The Neverhood including a short length and nasty puzzle design.
• Squick:
  • When you first enter the fortress, there's a little window you can peer through. If you look through it enough times, you can see the fuzzy four-eyed predator eat an eyeless beaked alien and poop it out. Looking through the window again allows you to see another eyeless alien eat the poop.
  • In Tvark's written memoirs, he recounts how he and Meva first found P in a crashed spaceship. According to him, P was in a room covered in feces because her diaper hadn't been changed for days.
• Tear Jerker:
  • Tvark's written memoirs are full of moments like this. Highlights include:
    • Tvark and Meva finding out they can't naturally birth a child.
    • P's biological parents being found dead in their spaceship. Tvark concludes they starved to death in order to keep P alive.
  • The horrified look on Tommynaut's face when Vognaut vaporizes Beak Beak.
  • The fact that by the end of the game, P has lost not one, but two sets of parents. Yes, they sacrificed themselves in order to keep P safe, and she has Tommynaut and Beak Beak now, but it's still sad.
• They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character: In the opening cutscene, Tommynaut and Beak Beak have a bit of banter and it sets up a potentially interesting dynamic between an unvexed hero and his wisecracking sidekick, but the two only exchange less than 20 lines throughout the whole story.
• They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: A lot of players agree that Tvark and Meva's backstory is far, far more interesting than the story of the game proper, and wish they could play as them during that time.
