Garten of Banban 2 (2023 Video Game)
2/10
The first: Part 2
1 June 2023
I already had my soap box about the concept of garten of banban and how it's fundamentally flawed, so now I'll actually look at the games themselves.

Somehow this kindergarten has MULTIPLE facilities within them that are massive compared to any school you can probably think of, and of course, the game lags! The lag isn't even due to the massive scale of the games world through unreal engine 5, but for some reason the Euphoric Brothers don't know how to properly make models (probably in blender) that have reasonable polygon count. For instance, the main antagonist Banban has literal hundreds of thousands of polygons, and the remote you carry around with you has more Polygons than the ENTIRETY of Mario 64, which says a lot about the Euphoric brothers ability to make a good game (looking up a blender modelling tutorial can't be that hard). The main gimmick of the game(s), the drone, is really klunky in how it works, you have to hit things from very specific angles in order to progress, and there are sections that don't even make sense in a kindergarten. For example, the multiple cannons that shoot live explosives, and of course; the fact that this KINDERGARTEN is also a genetic research facility!

I think the concept of givanium alterring organisms based on applied dna is actually interesting, for example the character Opila bird is a mix of givanium and Flamingo Dna, which could lead to the possibilites of other things mixing with givanium to make more interesting ideas, but sadly in this one the concept is barely used.

Easily one of the worst parts of the game is the voice acting. Good GOD. The voice acting. They have like 2 voice actors total, with them putting in such little effort that it's sad. Banban is just one of the Euphoric brothers talking in a normal voice, and then Banbaleena's Va actually putting in a little effort, the 2 voice actors just use slightly different voices for the other characters that are voiced, and by the end of the game, you're probably gonna be able to refund it, so it's a 2 out of 10, it's bad, but it isn't a nightmare.
