After playing briefly, my intention was to rate this game 3/5. After finally getting the hard badge, I rated it 1/5. This is an honest rating because I honestly hated it by the end. I would say the hard badge should be impossible, but really this game doesn't deserve badges at all. The game is not hard so much as it is stupid, and there are a few basic problems: (1) the tail is too long and too unresponsive; (2) the locational damage of armor and blades abuses the sloppy control; (3) powerups are far too rare; (4) objects dart in from nowhere at random times and random speeds; (5) the claustrophobic screen has too little space to maneuver. These are all examples of Fake Difficulty, and the game is far too reliant on luck. Futility is having swarmers spawn directly on chunks of tail, and this perfectly encapsulates the Oroboros gameplay experience.

OK - I was willing to let the fact that the game had no tutorial slide, and the first lvl seemed intruiging; the idea of the game was to protect your tail and eat stuff I thought, fine. Then in the next level it tells me to attack with my tail whilst protecting it... And in the next level it tells me that I have to destroy my food to protect my tail so that i can use it to kill things. WTF?

Easy badge doesn't seem to be working. Sliced close to 10 seekers - no badge. Though that the progress wasn't just updating until I got five. Also, there appears to be no high scores recently, so be warned if you are not awarded for your efforts.

By far, the hardest easy badge EVER earned
