While each minigame is paid through microtransactions, players can haggle with Rusty to purchase the games for a lower price.

When a player pays for full price, Rusty's past mentor Pappy Van Poodle will give him the items awarded from the minigames instead.

Scott Thompson from IGN called the game "uncharacteristically dark" and "surprisingly funny".
