I doubt it would come as a shock that not everyone thinks this game is particularly tasteful. The Telegraph reported back in August of 2009 that French homelessness groups were up in arms about the game, with a spokesman for the Red Cross saying:
I can’t say I disagree with him, though it seems Farbflut does. They have responded to criticism about the game by claiming:
Forgive me if I don’t really buy Farbflut’s response. Sure, they may be making random donations to causes benefiting the problem of homelessness, but I don’t think that necessarily outweighs the fact they are making the money (and a profit) in a counterproductive and dubious way.
