Hollow Knight but bigger and better in almost every way. It's harder, but you yourself are also much faster, mobile and have access to various tools.

Game launched 2 months ago with the bare game mechanics in place - tight, great 3v3, 4v4 or 5v5 gameplay. To be clear I love the game. However, I cannot recommend right now for a few reasons:

1. In the 2 months since launch, servers have become very bad, even though the game has bled a lot of its players. Being such a fast-paced game, having random spikes of lag every 30 seconds is not acceptable. The ingame overlay shows sub-30 ping and no packet loss, so I'm not sure what this is. One moment you caught the ball, and the next moment it's in your goal.

2. Devs seem to basically be sleeping on the job. They say they are working, but in the 2 months since launch they've only had maybe a couple very small, minor patches that removed a few crazy exploits, but nothing much else worth shouting about. The game shipped WITHOUT a reporting system, so cheaters and griefers have been roaming free with absolutely no way to report them in-game. Devs posted 1 month after launch that they plan to add a reporting system, but only 6-9 weeks after. You can't convince me this wasn't an oversight. Also, they are not that small a team (80 pax?). The only thing that regularly updates is their b-grade cosmetics store.

3. Dev communication is pretty poor and irregular. I'm not sure if they even have a community manager. I've tried numerous times tagging their account on Reddit to flag out glitches or issues in the past, but they don't seem to use that account much.

4. There are still some ridiculous, literally uncounterable moves that are left unaddressed, possibly never to be removed. Some people will say they are "skill moves", but they are physics-defying moves that is unfun to play against.

5. Ranked mode is a bit of a joke. Griefers or quitters can leave the game with hardly any penalty, and the rest of the team for some reason can sometimes still lose their ranked points when losing 4v5. Again, not fixed after 2 months since launch.

the best VR has to offer. the downside is that every other VR game you play will feel inferior.

Even looking past the bugs, the RPG elements are shallow, and the world is extremely lifeless if you look close enough. Some of the main story quests are interesting enough, but almost none have wowed me. Side quests are mostly boring, generic stuff, and any actually interesting quests fizzle out really quickly. I'd honestly rather just play GTA or Fallout NV again, than waste more time on this. I really tried to like it

A game that tries to show the ill effects of war on the civilian population. As the title might suggest, this game is about fighting to survive on the war-torn streets and making the best out of a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ situation (even if some decisions are of questionable morality).

As a whole this game is better than the sum of its parts. It may not be a long game, but it has some replayablity. There's plenty of potential to further expand the game with new scenarios.

Defintely worth a try, but take note - this game is not for adreneline-junkies (it does move at a slow pace)
