2. Sarah - 1/5 - I really didn't enjoy playing "Shantae and the Pirates Curse 3dz". The game felt repetitive and monotonous, with little variation in the gameplay. The levels and enemies were uninspired, and the overall design lacked creativity. Additionally, I encountered several technical issues, such as frequent crashes and slow loading times. It was a frustrating experience, and I regret spending my money on this game.
