A Risk of you burning a huge amount of time on this game. Every run just makes you thirstier for the next. Brilliant variety, an interesting gameplay loop and a large variety of builds and items for every single character, each spanning vast playstyles. Easy to learn, hard to master.

Fantastic work, especially considering the ambition following the 2D, equally good RoR1. If you like roguelike games especially, give this game a go. Must buy.

A stunning game continually developed by a motivated and passionate team, dead set on providing the community with the game they originally promised, with no extra cost attached. Actually a truly goliath endeavour and perfectly executed by Hello Games in one of the most astonishing comeback stories in the gaming industry to date. Buy this. Play this. You will not regret it.

9/10

Early Access Review
Firstly, let me preface this by saying that I only really found this game because I followed Untertow Games after they finished their work on SCP: Containment Breach. I must say, I am thoroughly impressed.

This game may not be for everyone, but if you'll like it, you'll love it. The game is charming, difficult, interesting and incredibly fun with friends. You and your crew embody different roles with different purposes within the environment of a submarine, travelling the great depths under the ice sheets of Europa. Through cavern systems, past outposts and various points of interest, you must navigate this submarine with your trusty crew through increasingly difficult partitions of the campaign, or in individual challenges that vary drastically in their scope. The threats are not just external though, as the incompetence or malfeasance of your own crew could contribute to your failure. This game, on that note, is truly incredible with friends. This game stages for many many hours of hilarious fun. The modding community is very active and depending on what kind of experience your after, this game can cater to every element. The depth provided with the item interactions and the excellent integration of ragdolling on this 2D work of brilliance make this a unique and enrapturing game with great potential for further development going forward. It's not easy, and it can be quick to overwhelm, but "nothing in the world is worth having or worth doing unless it means effort, pain, difficulty" - Theodore Roosevelt.

The systems and the combat are all really fun and rewarding, with depth in every element. Every role feels like it has it's place while still being versatile enough to participate in all activities and the variety of objectives and activities make this game easy to sink a lot of time into. The husk infection dynamic and the way that pain, consciousness and injury work in tandem depending on what you're facing up against keeps you on your toes in a good way. The atmosphere is A-Class, with excursions out of the sub sometimes being very tense and unnerving, while some missions are just clear cut fun.

The AI is passable but if you really want to experience this game in all it's glory, grab some mates and use the in game proximity chat. Once you're familiar enough, boot up some of the traitor modes available or come up with your own. The game is highly customizable and almost every aspect can be modulated through mods or script.

Grab some mates, grab a copy each, peruse the community workshop and start your ice-cold subnautical journey today. I would recommend this game highly to anyone who thinks that what I've written above sounds interesting.

Although a low player count and a lack of prominence may give the impression that this isn't a good game, that is absolutely not the case. This game is mechanically sound, very fun and very aesthetically pleasing. Although matchmaking is dead in ranked, the casual scene is still very active at some points during the day. The characters are fun and diverse, there is always a way to win and you always have a shot, even against the best.

Please, consider giving this a shot. It really won't disappoint if you ignore any toxicity you come across.

Absolutely brilliant platformer with oceans of character and humour, as well as a mechanic making it possible to leave corpses behind in order to make certain hazards easier to cross.
Easy controls, loads of challenge and a fantastic soundtrack give this title heaps of charm.
The art style is of high quality and still unique, with every new element seeming to fit with ease. Definately one you'll have to sink a bit of time into but much like any high skill ceiling game, the fun is in this learning.

Definitely would recommend.

100% the best Moba for anyone who is sick of the casual games that seem to be the craze at the moment. The learning curve is really steep, but once you're over it, it's the most fun you'll have in a Moba. Bring friends.

Really actually a genuinely good game. A lot of depth, fun combat, great world to explore, clever monster mechanics and a continually expanding endgame makes this seemingly basic concept incredibly deep and will give you hours of fun with your friends (if you can figure out how to set up a stable server). The building mechanics are also a lot of fun but pretty consistant and kind of mundane. I would definately recommend this game 8/10.

Best zombie killer I have played in a long while. Get this and you will not regret it. Hours of fun ensured, with a brilliant mechanic and the best multiplayer coop ever.
