Party Animals gets review bombed after devs announce AI video contest

Party Animals is a casual party brawler where you, as an adorable animal, beat up other adorable animals in chaotic and funny combat. It was released in late 2023 for Windows PC and Xbox Series X (and later ended up on PlayStation 5 in 2025) and became a hit with players, having over 17,000 lifetime “Very Positive” player reviews on Steam. Its recent reception, however, hasn’t been so positive, and it’s not surprising why.
