Today's SideDeal4-Pack: Whack-A-Pals, XyloWhizz & ReactionWhizz Keychain Game Bundles
Our Take
- Stupid little games to attach to your keys
- Maybe a fun way to kill some time?
- Perhaps better than doom scrolling? (Potentially?)
- Are they Mac compatible: The point is that you can play a little game without taking out your phone
Play Along, Please
At some point just before the New Year, we sold 281 of these things. And in the comments on that sale, here’s what you all had to say:
…
So, huh. Not much, actually.
Well, of course, the first sale often has fewer review comments than subsequent ones, right? And luckily, we’ve sold these a few times.
Here’s a review from when we offered these during our February Meh-rathon:
…
And another from the March Meh-ration:
…
Okay, to be fair, there were some comments. But despite selling close to 400 of these bundles, we have yet to have a single user tell us what they think of them.
How is that even possible??
So, maybe we need to expand our research, you know? Look for a video of these games in use? That might help inform our work.
And luckily, we found one!
Wait a minute. NO! THAT’S JUST A MOVING PICTURE! A gif, basically! It doesn’t show the gameplay at all!
Ugh.
So what do we even say here? That these things are great? If we do that, it’ll certainly inspire some comments, but most likely negative ones. On the other hand, we could try to talk shit about them, call them stupid and ridiculous, in an attempt to rile up some defenders. But what if it fails?
Which brings us to our final potential strategy.
Begging.
Please, buy some keychain games. PLEASE?!?!
Or, at least tell us if you’ve played them in the comments. We’d take that too.
