YMMV / The Illogical Journey of the Zambonis

• Fridge Horror: The title screen depicts countless zambonis falling down. Consider this- whenever a zamboni dies, it falls offscreen. You’re witnessing countless innocent zambonis falling to their deaths.
• So Bad, It's Good: The title screen music consists solely of a voice repeatedly singing the word "zamboni" over and over. Irritating? Yes. Hilarious? Also yes.
• Too Bleak, Stopped Caring: This can be a pretty hard game to get through due to how depressing it is. Despite the zambonis having a realizable goal, they continually die throughout the story, to the point where it's not a matter of if any of them will survive, but when they will die. Additionally, more than half of these deaths are outright murders caused by other characters, none of whom show any remorse about their actions and none of whom have any sympathetic traits, and all of whom have a reason for killing them that is inexcusable (the game's version of the Allergic Cliffs are completely apathetic to life itself due to having lived a long time, the pizza troll kills them for an incredibly petty reason, and the final of them are humans who are murderous bigots for reasons that never get explained). It doesn’t help that the narration continues to paint a bleak picture as each zamboni dies, that it's clear that the player has no choice but to interact with the puzzles and doom the zambonis even when it becomes apparent that the puzzles have no real answers, and the game outright admits that trying again isn’t going to change anything, killing any replay value.
• The Woobie: The zambonis. Nothing goes right for them at all and they all end up dead by the end of the game.
