Recently, a story surfaced regarding Moon Studios, the developer behind the Ori series, and, more recently, of No Rest For The Wicked, an ARPG. It was revealed that the studio’s CEO had taken to Discord to plead for positive reviews for the team’s latest game, stressing that negative reviews and review bombing could lead to a studio shutdown.

The CEO, Thomas Mahler, then appeared on X following a few articles covering his statements, altering and defending what he said very sketchily. In his rant, he suggested that ‘crazies’ hating on him for not including ‘five trans characters’ or ‘political bullshit’ in his games are to blame for negative reviews.


If you’re writing here and are enjoying Wicked and are excited for future updates, but haven’t left a positive review, it’s entirely possible that we won’t be around in a couple of months to do anything anymore simply because we got review bombed which leads to people not buying the game. Which means we’re not making any money and will have to shut down.
