I am just a random guy who like to play IWBTG fangames ! If you want, you can read my reviews and ratings for every game, which I have cleared! If you want, you can ask my some questions too, and I will be happy to answer to them! Have a nice day! ^-^

Most of fangames which I have cleared are on delicious-fruit, however, 2 are non delicious-fruit fangames.

For: Room to Think
Yeah, everything is in black. Black background, no music, and just a room 'to think'.
The only funny thing is 'Begin Thinking' that is written in the Save Slot. I will give 0.1 for that.
Besides that, there is no point to even try this game. I can think in my own room, if I wanna. Got it?
Skip this one.
Would not recommend.
For: I wanna be the zennjidou
First of all, description on Axfc says:
'簡単だよ!
だってアイワナの全自動だもんw'
Which means:
'It's easy!
Because it's fully automatic with Aiwana. lol'
Then there is a '余談.txt' ('additional remarks.txt' , I guess?), which has more info:
'このアイワナは全自動です。
難しいアイワナばかり作ってきたので、たまには簡単なものを作りました。
どうぞ遊んでください。
↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓
これ余談だよ( *´艸`)'
Translation, I guess:
'This Aiwana is fully automatic.
Since I have been making only difficult Aiwanna games, I made an easy one for a change.
Please enjoy playing it.
↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓
This is a side note ( *´艸`)'
So, I guess this is not author's first game, but I am not sure whose game this is. Title screen is very oddly designed and style itself does not ring a bell for me.
As for game's title 'zennjidou', I guess it is a play of words, judging by what ChatGPT suggested:
'The term "zennjidou" (ぜんじどう or 禅寺堂, depending on kanji) isn’t a common standalone Japanese word, but if we break it down into parts based on possible kanji and pronunciation, here are some possibilities:
禅寺堂 (zen-ji-dou)
禅 (zen) = Zen (a school of Buddhism)
寺 (ji) = temple
堂 (dou) = hall, large building
Together, "禅寺堂" could mean "Zen temple hall" or "hall of a Zen temple".'
Anyway, that is all good, but what about the game?
What is the review that Nearigami references to?
To understand that, let's open up the Archived page for this game: https://web.archive.org/web/20210617172012/https://delicious-fruit.com/ratings/game_details.php?id=18380
"Another standstill game that takes you to the end automatically, only this time it's slow as hell."
Yep, there is not much more going on here. After you beat the game you get until the clear screen where there is '58 END' (or whatever are first 2 symbols) and Japanese text 'どうだった?' that says 'How did it go?'
To answer to your question, author of this game: Meh. Interesting concept around conveyor bells, but that is it. Title screen is whimsical but you can see how it is lazily made (you can see slight of yellow from the original title of the engine I think). Also this game is kind of slow and tedious.
Does not feel that satisfying to clear.
As for difficulty I am gonna give 1 difficulty since you can move, so you can mess up something and die on accident. Other than that it is indeed 0 difficulty game.
Would not recommend.
For: Saul Goodman
'Hi, I’m Saul Goodman. Did you know that you have rights? The Constitution says you do. And so do I. I believe that until proven guilty, every man, woman, and child in this country is innocent. And that’s why I fight for you, Albuquerque! Better call Saul!', which in itself is relatively widely used copy-pasta few years back.
I mean, I do not mind the meme itself, but what do you mean the game closes itself down after 2 seconds? Usually when you use this meme, you use a bit larger portion of the soundtrack. Otherwise what is the point?
Copy-pasted text, low-effort .png type of game, that does not even elaborate the meme that it uses.
It is not funny, especially in 2025. And this honestly does not feel like a game.
This is simply baffling. I just do not get it. There is nothing worth talking about. I cannot even give 0.1 rating for this. At least let me listen to the song. Otherwise this is just waste of my time downloading this game just to experience 2 seconds of an image, that I can also see from this DF page.
Disaster.
Would not recommend.
For: I wanna become good at needle
You are curious on what journey you will be taken and so you decide to download this masterpiece of a game.
You see that the game was made on April Fools back in 2018, so you expect that probably this is some kind of meme.
Opening up Readme file you will see some text:
'还在担心跳刺水平不行吗?让破解大佬来帮你成为跳刺大触!
Lucien will give you a Lashi Teaching, enjoy it!'
Chinese line translates roughly as 'Still worried about your jumping skills? Let the hacking guru help you become a jumping master!' or whatever.
Teach me? What do you mean? Not that I am talking with him in DMs. Oh fool...
You see that the game is called 'needlegod.exe', and you know that this is a serious stuff.
Opening up the game and looking up in the window says that if you press Esc key then you give up. And also some large number with 3 being repeated a lot of times. Great start. Once actually starting the game, the kid will meet with the floating watermelon that moves towards the kid, ready to unleash forbidden Needle knowledge.
Kid cannot escape, and you can only wait for your fate.
Kid gets teleported to the next room that says
'If you love this video, show your love to Lucien!'
Your browser opens up and the video called '【Lucien】Needle Teaching Showcase% in 3:30:12' (https://www.bilibili.com/video/av12954450) by Lucien23s published on 2017-08-04
Video is a playlist containing of 3 videos: 01:08:16, 01:12:25, 01:09:30.
You might think that maybe the videos will teach you something, and you immediately remember that you do not speak Chinese. And you cannot press Esc key, or you actually give up, and so you won't become good at needle!
What to do?
Just watching 3 hours of the video?
Actually, no one said how you should become good at needle.
So just make the video on 2 speed, and do something else meanwhile. This will save your time, and will make everything much more effective, believe me. Faster = better. For sure.
Maybe you won't understand every word, but the determination to become good at needle will help you out. What do you mean you are just an avoidance player? Just listen to the wise words, that you will never hear again (probably). This is the time for Stream of consciousness.
Will you actually play needle games? I do not know, maybe?
Will you become better? I mean. You can watch and repeat what he does. It definitely can help.
As for me?
Who knows. Time will tell.
What a masterpiece. Except how can I know if I have become good at needle or not? Why the game does not have anything else?
I might be the only person that will clear this game this way, but this is surely how it was supposed to be.
Maybe I still suck at needle games. But it is not about the destination. It is about the journey and about the friends we have met all along.
After you beat the game and after you give up (aka press Esc key), the game opens up cmd and will delete itself (only .exe) from your computer (reason for the tag 'Jumpscare'). You gave up. So you do not need for game to tell what to do to become god. It told once and that is enough.
Oh, what is the meaning to play this game if I have already revealed the secrets of the gods? I mean. You do not. Just watch Lucien's video if you wanna.
Game served its reason to educate. And now I will educate you as well. No reasons to play the game.
Conclusion: Would not recommend.
For: I wanna be the Easy red spike
This time author tried to make very beginner-friendly needle. And honestly he kind of succeeded?
The game has more than 5 screens, has pretty nice background music (that unfortunately is restarting if you die), OK-ish visual (Red might be a bit too bright for my liking) and very easy gameplay. It is so easy that I honestly think that the hardest thing is the Save 1, because of the last jump where you need to jump out of 2 blocks, which is harder than just holding Shift key for as long as you wanna for most of the game.
After you beat the game, there is clear screen and portal that makes you return back to the start of the game for whatever reason.
I find it funny how this game actually had a Tester player, but honestly my respect to the author. He held to the bit, and he succeeded.
Yeah, game does not have much, but it also isn't honestly annoying. It exists, and is a time killer for 3 minutes. Not the most original one, although some things were good-looking (I liked the mirrored screen).
Would not recommend, but it is not so outrageous as other people make it seem to be.
