This game is great. If you don't want to buy it before giving it a go, a demo version is available on the developer's itch.io page.

This game is great and has provided me and my friends many hours of fun together. It just got its final update I believe so now is the time to get the full experience.

A wonderful game. Different characters lead to different playstyles for different moods. For example, if you want the world to be a chaotic vision of Hell, play the zombie. If you're feeling lucky (or unlucky), play the comedian. If you're feeling like a gorilla, play the gorilla.

This game has the highest interactivity of those that can be played with a controller: everything is destructible, subvertible, and exploitable: you canput sigarettes inside air conditioners to make people flee from a building, get rid of enemies by luring in hostile NPCs, and for every objective combat, stealth or exploits are almost equally viable, which allows every class to play radically differently.

I'd like to add another comment after playing the full version. For some reason I can't quite discern, I played the alpha demo to death, and would have given it a good/great, but then I bought the full version and I lost intrest very quickly. I suppose this means a Hazy rating.

On the surface feels simple but can be quite hard, very interactive and in my opinion quite creative use of its seemingly "small" map sizes. This is another i have been playing on and off for many years now, have taken a break from the recent updates. My hopes are to come back to a far more complete, fleshed out game (when i played it had 2 floors and limited classes). But has had many updates and regularly still gets attention. It seems like a game that would be far more enjoyable with friends who understand whats involved. But even chaos can work out.

Highest recommendation. Best sorts of emergent gameplay. It's a blast. Mixing and matching strategies is great. Mechanics may appear simple on the surface, but that's because there are so damn many of them and they interact in complex ways. Humor and excuse plot not really my thing, but I love the atmosphere and music. Plus, you can play as a knockoff Bob from Messiah. No DRM/GaaS. Sequel with cars and larger worlds in development. This is what GTA should be.

I need to play this game more. I was told by a friend it was a "2D Deus Ex", that was an exaggeration, but I see what he meant. Sadly it has feel too difficult for me so far, but I really wanna get into it again; playing solo it's supposed to be very fun too.

An excellent roguelike, one of the best, especially with a friend. The sequals coming out soon so now's a better time than any to try it.
