Another season/similar game please Netflix!
Sun Jan 29 2023 LilacveinsI have played all the romance style roleplay games. Chapters, Choices, Love Island, you name it I’ve tried it. Many of these aforementioned games force you to spend a fortune for a full ride and an actual enjoyable experience, so I was thrilled that something like this was fully unlocked for free by Netflix sponsoring it.
Onto the game itself: the art style, the customization options, and the writing/the journey the characters take to evolve is thorough and engaging (I have a soft spot for Theo especially, and I have a theory he is loosely based on Nick from the latest season). The gameplay is really smooth and dopamine-inducing because it doesn’t force you to spend money every 2 seconds. This encouraged me to watch the show on Netflix after I finished the game, so Netflix is definitely doing something right with this sponsorship model. I just hope they continue it and put out other similar show-game equivalents like this one in the rotation moving forward, because most of the other games in the Netflix catalog don’t currently appeal to me and I’m sure I’m not alone. Keep it up Netflix, this was a pleasant and wonderful surprise! I’m definitely excited for more to come. This is a goldmine that can put other similar games to shame.
Addictive, Fun, and Detailed!
Wed Dec 28 2022 :)hannavasOne of the very few story mobile games that’s very addicting and has AMAZING detail + sound effects. Not at all money hungry like many other apps and lets you have range of anything you like while playing (hopefully that doesn’t change, but if it does it’s not too pricey.) I’ve never seen a more detailed story game that not only lets you change your outfits/ hair but the other contestants as well so that’s fun! The accuracy from the show on Netflix to the game is phenomenal (from Lana to the different personalities is great!) I downloaded this yesterday and played all the available chapters the same day and have to wait for the next one lol. Literally the only “problem” I have is that i wish the other contestants would also have crushes/ lust for each other and not just pining after MC so it’s more realistic in a way. Other than that this is 10/10… or a 5 star review for me haha! Hopefully there would be a way to make a S2 for this game! Thanks for the hard work and amazing gameplay!
LOVE LOVE LOVE.
Mon Dec 19 2022 Makaylagaines_I never knew that Netflix did mobile games so when I searched up Too Hot To Handle on netflix and saw it, I immediately started playing. I AM OBSESSED. The story lines are crazy good and Theo 😏😏😏…. It’s almost like reading a good book but with animations. I love that you don’t have to use gems like those other games because we get to choose who we want to be with without making the dumbest decision just because we don’t have gems or diamonds. The only thing I would want changed is that others would show interest in each other. Like they all like my character and I want drama…so maybe someone goes for Theo or whoever someone chooses as their first choice while they play! There better be more than 1 season to this because I AM ON IT. I would 100% buy netflix over and over again just to play. I’ve already recommended this game to 10 different people who have watched and loved Too Hot To Handle. WONDROUS JOB you beautiful people!! Tell whoever made this game they’ve completed my life 😌😌
Honestly, the best game I’ve played in a long time
Sat Jul 08 2023 ClayanaThe moment I started playing this game, I knew I would be hooked. One of my favorite things about these types of games, Is designing my character and this game gives you so many options, from the hair to piercings. The other important thing I look for in role playing games, is the gameplay itself. I love the fact that there are literally so many options, and it doesn’t force you to only like or flirt with one or two charters in particular. This allows you to finish the game, and play it in a completely different way and make different choices when you decide to start over. And YOU DONT HAVE TO MAKE PURCHASES 🥹🥹 Fr though, the last time I enjoyed a game like this was Love Island ( only season one and two ). I was disappointed when that game fell off, but this game has set the bar high for roll playing. From the characters, to the cute outfits, this game is 10 out of 10. PLEASE make a season 2 of this. Thank you Netflix 🤗
Absolutely Love This Game
Sun Feb 19 2023 Lilmylo123This game is by far the best out of all the choices games I’ve played (Love Island, Episode, etc.). For this review though, I’m gonna specifically compare to Love Island.
The Story: The writing is so smooth in comparison to Love Island. It’s not immature and “out-of-touch” the way that the newest seasons of Love Island have been. It’s also nice that you’re the main love interest and have plenty of options to choose from. However, I do wish there was a little more drama (although I was pretty modest with my choices which could have effected this), and I wish there were more relationships forming amongst the rest of the group other than myself and Jada. I think there should also be more people coming in and getting kicked out. Also, I think it’s a bit weird that you can’t specify your sexual preferences and are being pursued by both genders.
The choices: Absolutely LOVE that you have free-range to choose whatever you want. Even the “special scenes” are completely free. It truly makes you feel that you’re in control of your character. Additionally, your choices DO matter, unlike in the newest Love Islands. I’ve only played through once, but I’m hopeful that different choices will lead to a much different story. I also enjoyed having control over my characters outfits (for free), including the hair and jewelry, and not getting berated for what I’m wearing.
Overall, the game is amazing.
Can’t choose sexual preferences
Sun Oct 22 2023 Dvm0721This game and it’s sequel are a waste of time. There is no way to choose your sexual preference so hopefully you’re ok with being bisexual because every single character on these games are bi, including you. Oh wait, there is a “pansexual” character in the game. They make it a point to let you know that. Lol. So you don’t technically know anyone else’s preferences but the game lets you know that everyone is interested in everyone. There are several scenarios where your forced to flirt with members of the opposite sex, they try and get you to date them, they make sexual innuendos constantly towards you. It’s all very weird and uncomfortable. About what I would expect from Netflix. Lastly, there really isn’t a whole lot of freedom to try and win over the people you want. Some things are just destined to be. There’s a BFF that you can’t seem to date. There’s also new people that come to the place a few days in and you can only mingle with specific ones with the story. So like, when Candace gets there there’s zero possibility of starting a fling with her. The game won’t let you. It pushes you to this other girl. It’s all very cheesy and very CA. Skip this one.
This is amazing but i have a few recommendations
Mon Jun 05 2023 Pauliño Perezlove the diversity in hair, bodies, and im glad there was a male option. but the game kinda assumes that the mc is pansexual or whatever, and id rather have a sexuality option, and those im not interested in could just have the friend status. speaking of being friends, i was dissapointed when jada justin candace and carter werent romantic interests 😔speaking of justin, i thought his villain arc was weird. he didnt rlly seem like a red flag but he just became one later. also my original love interest just kinda disappeared near the end, and i was sad 😔 i tried playing bonus scenes to get the status higher which also didnt work, and the game is so long i dont wanna restart. im rlly excited for a season 2 if there will be one, and all i ask is sexuality, all characters being love interests, and bonus scenes effec relationships. okay yall are amazing and this game is very good and well made. 🌞 have a great day
let me just say…
Sat Aug 12 2023 nuggetfries99I. AM. OB. SESSED.
i love everything about this game. i just discovered it and, while i don’t watch the show on netflix, i’m a huge fan of interactive games like this. i play choices, love island: the game, and occasionally tabou.
what i love so much about this game:
— there are no keys to read, which means no endless waiting 2-3 hours for them to refill.
— there are no gems, which means you have access to all options, outfits, hairstyles, etc. nothing is off limits!
— instead of gems, there are stars. there is nothing required to earn these stars, but reading. you earn stars as you read, and you use these stars to unlock bonus scenes with every other islander.
what i think developers could improve:
— make other islanders customizable - at least a few - not just the main character. i’d like the ability to customize a few love interests, and maybe a best friend.
— not critical, but there are a few typos here & there. otherwise, the writing & plot are close to perfection.
— i really feel bad for complaining, but it’d be nice to have more clothing options: daywear, swimwear, and nightwear. but again, NO BIGGIE, as i literally played this until 4am the morning after i discovered it.
wait, one more thing. i hated how i couldn’t romance justin in thth1!!! i feel like i’m the only one bc everyone hates his guts, but i was attracted to him most from the start! 😭 i fall so hard for bad boy characters EVERY TIME.
god i love this game. let me get back to it.
Awesome Interactive Story
Fri Dec 30 2022 AjayshiaI just started playing this game yesterday, and I already finish the different chapters and can’t wait for the next one. It’s very entertaining, detail and keep you on your toes. Plus unlike other interactive stories, you don’t have to buy options that would normally be classified as “premium choices”, which always your character to build a closer bond with the person you want to pair up with. Which is amazing, and it makes sense since you’re already playing for a membership with Netflix. Only downside is, just like other comments, I wish all the other islanders weren’t all crushing on the MC. It can be overwhelming sometimes. I wish they were able to crush on other people too and build relationships and not just be too keen on the MC, even other you made your choice about who you want. Fingers crossed for a season two!
Ugh
Fri Aug 04 2023 FashyFasciFirstly, I am NOT bisexual. I am STRAIGHT. That’ll never ever change. Secondly, I absolutely positively refuse to even acknowledge ANYBODY who calls themselves “transgender” and has special pronouns that do not directly align with the gender they were born as. The fact that I don’t even want to acknowledge his or her existence means that even remotely considering to do anything romantic or sexual with one is ridiculous and completely out of the question. Thirdly, I never said I wanted to be friends with Jada. You’re so woke, it’s pathetic. She’s annoying, and I just LOOOOOVE how two White guys want her out of all of the other girls. And lastly, the only realistic character I like is the pink haired girl, Candace I think her name was. She was there to cause trouble but in woke liberalville, everyone is sunshine and rainbows. It’s BORING!!! If this didn’t come with a Netflix account (which my husband pays for, sadly), I wouldn’t even bother with this woke, boring GARBAGE. The ONLY reason I gave you TWO stars instead of one is because I’m honestly surprised everything is free. Knowing the world, and knowing y’all, it’s shocking.
