I've played 50 hours of this game and I have yet to discover so many details hidden within this game. The sheer amount of content in this game is incredible and definitely worth the delays given its troublesome development history. Absolutely sits there as one of my favorite games of all time.

I was fortunate enough to not be exposed to any spoilers whatsoever before playing the game for the first time. Its masterfully-written, tragic, heart-wrenching story filled with memorable, lovable, and relatable characters are what will stick with me for the rest of my life. Each character of the main cast has their own complex stories and personalities that are given a chance to shine through their dynamics with one another (Sunny, Aubrey, and Hero being my favorite characters... sorry Kel). The unique art style of the game accompanied with its fantastic soundtrack created such a comfy, unique, and terrifying experience (seriously, the game's boss themes are some of the best boss themes I have ever listened to).

One big thing I appreciate about this game is that it is not afraid to take its time. I believe this game handled it very well, making sure not to reveal important story elements/themes too early on while also not stretching it out way too long. This game's visual storytelling is also flawless and complex. However from a gameplay standpoint, there are certain areas of the game can be a drag sometimes, especially during your second or third playthrough. Some enemies can be straight up annoying to encounter/fight as well, either because they take so long to kill or because they move so fast that you might as well fight them to get rid of them (UFO...). Despite these flaws, this game is amazing. I hear the Nintendo Switch version has even more content exclusive to that version so I will definitely look into buying that.

On a more personal note, this game allowed me to feel again; to uncover and accept those thoughts and feelings that burdened me for numerous years. Those feelings that keep you up at night that bother you and fill you with anxiety. Those feelings that you don't want to feel because it fills you with dread, fear, and remorse. Those thoughts of despair, worthlessness, and regret that repeat in your head. Those thoughts contemplating what would happen if you just ceased to exist. Those feelings that make you want to break down and cry every day but can't because you've endured the mental torment for so long, to the point where you become numb to it all. I played this game during a time where I felt trapped in my own mind and needed something, somewhere to escape to. I think you can tell where I'm going with this.

9.7/10, I highly recommend this game to anyone and everyone.

Game is difficult but fun to master. Ofc better with friends and mods. Not too enjoyable single-player imo but still great. 10/10 would recommend

The music is fantastic and the controls are super easy to get used to.
10/10 (not biased at all)

I remember my friends and I popping off over this game back in 2017 but now that I have finally purchased it, it was alright experience. Personally, I think it's one of those games where you can pick it up, love it but then leave it alone in the back of your closet. I enjoyed the game but it felt empty.
Don't get me wrong, T.A.B.S is a fantastic game. Graphics feel smooth and sound effects are hilarious. Maybe the hype died out for me over the past years?
I won't be rude and say I don't recommend the game because I do. I'll consider coming back to this game in the future and see how it turns out but for now, I'll leave it alone.
