Honestly I never even heard of this game.

amazon marketing basically put all their advertising budget by making mr beast create an event themed around it, and most people didnt get the memo that it was an actual game.

if you dont watch him, or know someone who watches him, you basically would have never known. similar to how most pc players werent aware of concord at launch because its only advertisment was if you happen to watch state of play, a sony event.

Wait you are telling me that the very generation of kiddos who find Mr Beast amusing and enjoy spending their free time watching others play video games didnt end up playing the video game that was heavily marketed towards them?

I’m sure Amazon will be giving the pink slip to a few people and they’ve really earned it.
