I'm sure Evan didn't mean this to sound as nasty as it does. Maybe he is confusing the site's general readership with a few vocal forumites. I don't know, but it's really not very likely at all that a majority of the people who read this review have done either a or b. Most readers will probably not have played the game or said anything about it at all (I haven't played it, and I can't remember ever mentioning it on the AG-forum either).

I was not at all happy with BeTrapped for about the first hour and a half that I played.

3 STARS for a game that wasn't very enjoyable for the first 90 minutes?
Hmm, this is interesting, since a (so-called) casual game that doesn't hook the player within the first half-hour is doomed to be a failure. The single most important thing for these games is that they're addictive right from the start.

Edit: Didn't notice that the quote was taken out of it's original context. Sorry about that, my mistake.
