I first played Airlock Arena with a couple friends and it was great to play death match together. I played the single player version and it was just as much fun. Although I did immediately murder all the scientists and destroy the cargo I was supposed to transport on accident lol. Ended up playing for 2 hours straight trying to unlock all the achievements you can get. It definitely took me a second to get all the controls down, but once I did I really liked some of the mechanics. This game is addicting and extremely fun to play with friends or by yourself. Would definitely recommend Airlock Arena, it's the kind of game you can play over and over again and have just as much fun as the first time you played3 found this helpful
I played several games with my boyfriend and had a blast! I mean that literally as we watched the goods we worked so hard to grab from a burning space station while our ship was under attack all get blown into space twelve seconds later through a hull breach before we could save any of it! I think I found every possible way to die though so he started sacrificing scientists on the respawn platform, calling them 'organically sourced extra lives' lol I felt bad :( But also strangely grateful! I would totally recommend this as a fun couch game! Oh and the game over song 'Treasure in the Stars' has no right to be that good, I haven't had anything stuck in my head like that since Down By The River from BG3!3 found this helpful
Came out retirement to play this game - masterpiece.2 found this helpful
I've played both single and multiplayer and have had a FANTASTIC time with the game. It strikes the perfect balance of easy to learn, difficult to master, with just the right combination of skill and luck mixed in. You can pick up on the game mechanics after just a few minutes, but after a few rounds you really get to appreciate the challenge the physics and crises add to the levels. If you're looking for some easy-to-get-into rounds of a game with friends or solo, this is an excellent option. The developers recommend gamepad, which I would like to try at some point. I've been on mouse and keyboard and have had no issues with the gameplay. Perhaps I'll lose less cargo and finish out more contracts if I actually make the switch, hah!1 found this helpful
It would be fun but I'm continuously experiencing graphics issues whereby the screen freezes whilst game play continues in the background.1 found this helpful
I acknowledge that I haven't played a ton of this game but even what I have played didn't get me through the tutorial. There are so many different mechanics and some of them felt a bit klunky so I simply couldn't bring myself to continue on with the tutorial. This is very rare for me, so I will come back to this game in the future and see if my opinion has changed and will then edit this review, but for the time being I cannot give it a thumbs up or recommend it to others.
