I am absolutely enthralled by this game. An intriguing, fresh setting, beautiful art, fun combat with a really satisfying skill tree and abilities, great writing... this is really a stellar game through and through. Congratulations to all you had a hand in making it what it is, what an absolute pleasure to get to experience a game like this.

Sure, i'll get a lot of hate for this but... great game, wish it had more difficulty options. And a pause button. I'm sure such an ask makes a thousand frothing incels absolutely furious, ready to type "get gud" without realising the above suggestions really dont harm their enjoyment of the game (unless the problem is ego driven developers who insist this is their vision... or are just so dedicated to emulating the souls experience they wouldnt dare make their own path).

My time is valuable. I just wanna have fun with the game, without tons of backtracking or losing progress.

I enjoyed this more than Elden Ring, but still wish they did more to make their own mark, rather than ape things so religiously.

Incredibly fun, charming little game. I absolutely adore it. Playing on Easy feels about right with managing the RNG to start, at least until I've unlocked more trinkets.

I'm so happy this game exists, and just want to thank the devs behind it for their hard work. Looking forward to more from this team

Now that Sony has reversed their unfathomably moronic attempt at bleeding this game dry, utterly harming the developers and screwing over the players in their wake, it is safe to cautiously recommend this game again.

Arrowhead has clearly made something truly special here, and their efforts with the community to grow this game in a positive direction is admirable. I have fallen madly in love with this game, and I am so grateful for all the hard work clearly put into this. Absolutely a 10/10 game. Just dont let greedy corpo execs ruin it. Stay vigilant!

Early Access Review
I really enjoy this genre, but found a lot of offerings EXTREMELY samey. This on the other hand, feels genuinely innovative with its mechanic of getting to field up to 3 different characters at once. It's a absolute blast to tear through hordes of enemies and try out different builds' synergies. Experimentation is going to be what really sets this game apart from others in the same genre. I'm a huge fan of the surprisingly charming humor in the small tidbits of writing throughout the game too.

The patches do a lot to keep improving the flow and feel of the game and I'm very excited to see what comes in the future.

My only minor critique is the art, which might just be a limitation of the small team size and having to rely on what I think are a lot of store bought assets that, while fine on their own, dont quite mix here just yet. Granted, this is early access so Im certain a lot of polish is to come. This is really just me nitpicking. If the devs ever want anim or art help, get in touch! haha

Actually, I have another more serious critique - THE NAME OF THIS GAME IS ANNOYING AS HELL TO BRING UP IN CONVERSATION OR GOOGLE, lol

Easily one of the most fantastic games I've experienced in years. I played this with a friend watching over discord stream, and we had an absolute blast with the story and excellent puzzles. The writing in this is so friggin good, filled with humor and charm and characters you cant hope but grow to love.

This a is a tight, efficient experience that takes every part it had to work with and mixes together something truly special.

Games like this are so important for this industry. Thank you to everyone involved in making this a reality. Absolutely recommend this for fans of puzzles, light spooks, nostalgic visuals and just excellent game design and writing

What an absolutely incredible game. Seriously, a perfect gem clearly made with lots of love and care throughout. I was so engaged by the story and characters, all of which is amplified by stellar voice acting by the whole cast. It's so wonderful playing something so fresh and original. I highly recommend this indie darling to anyone tempted. A heart felt congratulations ot everyone involved in making and shipping this game. Friggin AWESOME stuff

An utterly brilliant game. I had such a blast the whole way through. The story is a hell of a ride and the characters are endearing and well written. The visuals are breath taking - Respawn never seem to miss. The gameplay is exactly what you want from an open world action adventure game, with satisfying, expansive combat and great platforming sequences. They even managed to make the puzzles intuitive, making you feel pretty challenged and smart when you solve them.

I ADORED my time with this. Almost 100%-ed it too, as it is just THAT fun to go through. I had two crashes and one soft lock, but otherwise for the 50-ish hours I played this it was a mostly bug-free experience. Respawn have clearly buttoned up the game to an immense degree since launch.

What a privilege it is to experience such mastery from all the devs. Congrats, Respawn. This is easily a 10/10 game

This is an absolutely incredible game. This is one of the rare experiences where the love the devs had for every inch of what they created is completely palpable. A meaty, intriguing, galaxy hopping campaign, intense and visceral space combat, intuitive controls, jaw dropping visuals and art direction... just wow. What a game. Bravo to all involved. Please don't skip this.

I can't believe there's even post game content?! I just put 95 hours combing the systems for every morsel and there's STILL more to do, should i be inclined? Unbelievable. I'm sure the game is shorter if you just plow through the main story, and that's what I was initially expecting to do as my time is limited but everything on offer here was so good, so undeniably enriching, I just had to go all in. I'm just flabbergasted. Stuff as good as this is truly inspiring

An absolute gem of a game, please do not skip this!

I was absolutely hooked (no pun intended) from the get go. Elegantly accessible gameplay with intuitive, rewarding progression and a delectably atmospheric narrative dolled out in moody gloops and globs as you venture through the world, all the while being charmed to high hell by the inventive and gorgeous art and sound.

An instant classic, and legitimately now one of my all time favourite games. Bravo, devs. What an absolute pleasure to get to play this work of art
