Editorial Meh
Stuck with My Ex's Family and Zombies has genuinely impressive 2D art and a witty, character-driven narrative voice that land well—but the game's creative execution is severely undercut by an infuriatingly passive protagonist and a story that moves at a crawl. Players consistently praise the renders, humor, and writing voice, but many feel misled by promotional content that suggests early sexual payoff; the actual build offers almost none until later updates, and narrative tension is weakened by a main character who shows zero agency even when opportunities for it arise. The zombie premise remains untouched through v2.7, leaving players uncertain whether they're playing an adult game, a sandbox, or an unfinished visual novel. Opinion divides sharply: some see genuine promise and are willing to wait; others view the slow pacing, thin early content, and mid-development state as a hard pass. For those patient enough to invest in potential, the craft is there—but right now, the payoff isn't.
