Playing Lethal Company was the most fun I’ve had in a game in 2024, and is still a game I return to when the mood strikes—one moment you’re screaming in terror, the next you’re laughing hysterically. It’s a blast with friends and still enjoyable with strangers. (Tip: Use in-game voice chat!)

The gameplay loop is simple yet satisfying: scavenge abandoned moons for scrap to meet company quotas before the ship’s autopilot leaves you behind. The balance between exploration and tension is spot-on.

Without spoiling much, the horror elements are best experienced blind. It’s really great what a single dev has achieved, and for me this game has taken Phasmophobia’s mantle and, even in early development, outshines it. I'm excited to see how it continues to evolve.
