Early Access Review
So Far this game is real good, formerly a mobile only game the port is pretty nice and the simple Rougelike content does well...I think my only gripe is that the game lacks a few large scale content at the time of writing...in 5 hours I've unlocked all 5 classes and beaten two of them...maybe some future content updates...such as Bosses, the ability to drop gear in the Merchant room to sell it as well as deeper runs and just more build options would help freshen the game up...but for about £3...I think you get exactly what you paid for with a game like this...and I'd equally take an expansion or DLC for similar price for similar ammounts of added content!

Short Summary: Very large class diversity and great feel to the active gameplay, I'd Recommend playing on Reboot Servers instead of Regular Servers as regular servers require quite the real life money investment to progress quickly.

Since the introduction of the Europe Reboot Server I've managed to sink 1K+ Hours since Late July/ Early August playing on the new server. As a whole Maplestory is a quality MMO and it's fully active combat system as opposed turn based or timed turn systems (Like Final Fantasy 12) works very well for it's 2D sidescoller/platformer style, in boss fights there's a lot more emphasis on being able to dodge attacks in real time which makes these fight more active and interesting.

There's a very wide variety of different classes that can play quite drastically to each other, I'd recommend either doing some research on each class before deciding on a Main Character to pursue or alternatively experiment with a few classes and decide on a Main after you've had some time with them yourself, regardless guides, the Maple Subreddit and eventually joining a Guild and chatting with Guildmates on DIscord are going to be useful tools to help you learn more of the complex stuff and help you have a better experience.

Personally I would also recommend you play on a Reboot Server specifically as regular servers have a lot of it's quality of life items or optimal safe upgrading systems behind paid currency, that whilst it can be obtained in-game, is a slow process. Reboot servers do not have these same issues with progress being tied entirely to self progression (other players can't trade with each other but can party up and help you kill bosses). The only recommended purchase via real world currency in Reboot would be for Pets (usually cost about $8-12 per pet) and Pet skills to pick up stuff for you otherwise you'll get Carpal Tunnel or the "Z" on your Z Key is going to wear off.

Overall playing Reboot Servers is going to cost you significantly less than the majority of other F2P MMOs on Steam and with it's large number of playable classes and a high Level cap (currnetly max is 250 as of writing this review, The level cap will become 275 sometime in 2019 with new content), this will easily keep you very occupied.

A good game but Rockstar's name and this game has been dragged through the mud by Take Two Interactive's practices, a shame really.

I honestly cannot recommend SUPERHOT to more people than I can right now. There is nothing more satifiying than watching all the cool ♥♥♥♥ you did during a level in real time and getting to easily save and upload it to view over and over again. The improvements to the game with the Throwable weaponry and varied weapons add more depth to the game and once the Switch Mechanic comes into play you can do some very clever stuff.

The challenges range from enjoyable nostalgia romps to frantic perfection to pure agonising frustration and give a nice depth of post game. The endless modes can be a barrel of fun to just casually slaughter everything and overall all the little details really make the game stand out. On top of that the fact that you can give friends discount codes for the game when you beat it is a very nice touch

Personally I think that maybe £17.99 is a bit of a steep asking price and the main story being a bit short is a shame but if you have enough money to consider it I'd honestly say it's worth the experience. Overall a very solid game mechanic that innovates in it's field 8.7/10 from me.
