Here’s my opinion on the new Roblox game Wonderland even though absolutely nobody asked for it 😍
I will say that in some ways, I do get the hate. This game has been in development for over two years now, and the game did not meet the expectations of its players in many ways.
Firstly, as I have also played the game, many players note the game is too hard and many cannot even get past the first chase scene in the third room. Leaving players who cannot do very tactile and fast moving tasks as easily behind, even on easy mode. Seeing as most of the playerbase (including myself I died like in 30 seconds lol) did not expect this, I agree that changes must be made.**
But many complaints have also been made towards the overall structure of the game in terms of how the lore is delivered. People still are unsure what the game even is about, and in the beginning we do not even know who we are, nor what this world is. We only know the basics to survive.
**I forgot to also mention the side criticism of checkpoints, meaning the game’s lack of, which for a game with very hard bosses, even I can imagine that would cause frustration to many. It even caused many players to quit in frustration.
I believe this is really what the players are upset about and is why the game is receiving lots of criticism, it’s because the game was advertised as a story based game, giving hints to new creative lore that is unlike other games that pulled in a large audience, but the game failed to deliver, essentially only allowing tryhards to advance in the game.
It is a complete shame to see such a good concept with very well thought out tools (such as the map being an etch a sketch, genius!) and map design receive such a bad reaction.
HOWEVER!
There is still hope! I did decide to take a quick gander over to their official discord page, and on their announcements, it shows that many of these complaints have been heard, and will be addressed in the future or even better, near future!
I don’t know about you guys, but I am mainly excited about the Story mode, as well as the chapter based gaming that got many fans attracted to this game in the first place. Me personally, I find that to be my biggest criticism of the game due to just how much potential these character designs have. Even if it will take till by 2027, in reality, it’s almost September (as I am writing this), so just a bit over 4 months is the longest we will have to wait, if it isn’t finished by December already!
As well as on the bottom, CHECKPOINTS BY SUNDAY!!!
Just as a last section, I don’t want to leave this post by just saying the things that the development team has done wrong, so let’s talk about the things that I love!
Firstly, the map and character designs are amazing! You can tell lots of thought was put into these areas and it really does give off a very unique and creative feel to the project.
Also, if anyone doesn’t want to be spoiled about the ending don’t worry I won’t spoil it fully, however in the last cutscene you can really tell that work was being done with the video at the end, and I think that the mascots were pictured beautifully 💕
Overall, I am mainly just happy that the developers have heard the community’s feedback and will address the issues I’ve spoken about, but I don’t think I will be playing again until that first boss is reworked or until story mode is released. I want to see the full picture of what the lore is as the game progresses when I play. So I think I’ll wait for a bit.
That’s all!
Also check out @leafpawz ‘s post about this game too I think he brings up a lot of good points and flaws within the game that I personally didn’t want to fully get into 💕
