Say No! More Reviews
Short and sweet, Say No! More has a lot to say about privilege and self-assertion.

How many of us go through life saying yes to people’s demands or requests? It may be a family member, a friend, or even a work colleague. It’s easy to slip into the habit of trying to please everyone and being too nice, even if it’s detrimental to our wellbeing. You can end up burnt out, or in an uncomfortable situation. Do you find it hard to tell others no, out of fear of upsetting them?
"Say No! More" is a work that shows how courageous it is to be able to say "no" with conviction, facing the absurdities of society today, when people are becoming more cautious about expressing their negative intentions. The value it's trying to deliver is clear, but the gameplay is a bit repetitive. Rather than thinking of playing a game, it's better to treat it with the feeling of watching a comedy movie that you can laugh without worrying.

Ultimately, Say No! More is short, vapid, and stupid… but it kind of works. Gameplay is basic almost to the point of meaningless, but when combined with its striking art style and funny writing and voice acting, it adds up to an experience unlike any other. Frankly, full price is too much to ask for a game this simple, but definitely consider it during sales.
Say No! More is as fun as it is short. In few hours of verbal abuse, Fizbin's arcade shooter delivers a legitimate criticism of the business world, with many good puns. Unfortunately, it's shortness and lack of replay value makes it fun for only a few hours. But good ones, for sure.

Power Fantasy gets a whole new meaning with Say No! More, even if said fantasy won't stay with you for long. Funny, charming, and even touching, this adventure is undoubtedly an enjoyable one, but the game wrapped around it isn't really a game. The comedic writing is more than decent, but in this case, just not enough to turn this into a big recommendation. This is quirky-indie-game-fans material only.
Indies don't get much funnier than Say No! More with its goofy story, pitch-perfect presentation, and laugh-out-loud situations.
Say No! More is one of a kind. It's imaginative, inspiring, and very, very funny. It's also a short, mechanically shallow experience.
Say NO! More is an undoubtedly unique game and its quirky sense of humour is certainly endearing, but its gameplay lacks any sort of depth to make it feel that engaging. You’re literally just pressing a button to say NO over and over again… and that’s it. That sort of simplicity CAN work in games, but in this case I couldn’t help but to wish that it offered a little something extra – if only to help immerse me further and make me feel like I’m really having an impact on its bizarre (yet relatable) world. It’s not a bad game by any means and the zany scenarios, charming narrative, and wacky ways of saying NO do make for a memorable experience. It just doesn’t really do enough to make it essential playing when compared to other comical games that try to do something a bit *different*.
Inside such a compact game, you have humour and ridiculous situations that are fun to play. Characters are well voiced and the stupid requests hit home on a personal level. Unfortunately, being restricted to an on-rails experience that lasts only a few hours hampers the enjoyment, but it is rather fun while it lasts. It’s just a shame it couldn’t stick around longer.
There’s no denying that Say No! More is a funny game. At first, I was laughing like an idiot at its completely absurd premise. Sadly, this comedic game is a one-trick pony and its sole joke wears off after a few minutes. There’s just not a lot of substance to justify playing it for more than a few minutes at a time. That’s all you’ll do. You’ll say “no” until the game tells you to stop, or more likely, you decide to turn it off.
Aside from having a kind of unique idea and tools for making your playable character as funny as you can, there isn’t much to recommend here because all the so called jokes fall flat and the gameplay is really a No Playing Game as the developers have suggested so you can Say No! to this one.
