Do Not Feed the Monkeys is a digital voyeur simulator: a narrative-driven game where you invade the privacy of dozens of strangers and witness their most intimate moments, while you struggle to keep up to date with paying the rent and putting some food on the table. You are the newest member of the “The Primate Observation Club” -and of course it is not the wildlife conservation society the name would suggest.

Do Not Feed the Monkeys is a digital voyeur simulator: a narrative-driven game where you invade the privacy of dozens of strangers and witness their most intimate moments, while you struggle to keep up to date with paying the rent and putting some food on the table. You are the newest member of the “The Primate Observation Club” -and of course it is not the wildlife conservation society the name would suggest. It is a front for a shadowy group that watches others through surveillance cameras and compromised webcams. Tired of your ramshackle apartment, dull existence and boring jobs, you’re accepted into the exclusive organization, so you can pry into the privacy of the “caged monkeys” as they go about their lives. The game lets you to Browse social networks, wikis, websites, newspapers, online stores and chat lounges to gather information about the “monkeys” you are charged to spy. The club urges you to not interfere with those observed (to not “feed the monkeys”). But then, what will you do? Will you intercede in the name of justice? Sabotage their dreams? Or will you just sit idly by while the world burns? Whatever you do (or don’t do) will have consequences! Less

Do Not Feed The Monkeys quick thoughts

It's a very well made and detailed game, and I can tell it would be entertaining to someone who enjoys this kind of thing, but sadly I'm not one of those people. Unfortunately, I found this game stressful and exhausting, but that's because I'm kind of terrible at time management (just like in real life haha my life is a joke). I totally understand the appeal of a game like this but, generally, I like to take my time with games and this didn't really satisfy me in any meaningful way. Great game, just absolutely not for me. Give it a go if you like time management sims though because it's a really interesting beast, for sure.

A little piece of a good game

(Excuse my English, I'm not fluent)

I played that game because it was free on Amazon Games. It's good and cool, I'm not used to time-managing games and I this one it's really addicting: simple gameplay and good stories. The problem about it is the duration of the game, being that addictive game makes the principal story feeling short. I understand it's an indie game with low resources and the game promotes replaying, but I don't like replaying and the narrative cuts when you are so deep on it. If it hadn't been these "cut", I would rate as a four-star game.

Also, I don't understand why there aren't good reviews, it's a good game.

Underrated

The definition of Orwellian irony. Also nice to see that the camera for some cages differs with each playthrough

This seems like an unnoticed game since there are almost no reviews, playthroughs etc. Very interesting concept but a little bit too complicated for my taste. I will try to play on the lowest difficulty setting.
