✦ AI summary
Players praise this underrated family-friendly game for its smooth gameplay, clever humor that appeals to both adults and children, and excellent co-op experience via split-screen and friend passes. The strategic command system paired with hack-and-slash action creates engaging moments, though some find the base combat tedious and the humor occasionally infantile, and online multiplayer sessions are difficult to find.
Would never been into this aesthetics if I had no kids and I'd miss a lot. Absolute fun to play with my family. Totally underrated, but i guess it is a bit of a niche. Would love to play with random folks online, but for some reason no sessions are ever available. So sometimes, in great secrecy, I play solo. Gameplay is very smooth. The hack&slash aspect is a bit tedious (yet attractive for kids), fun starts with strategizing, using the command view, allocating resources. Storytelling astonishingly funny - very appealing to both adults and children. Main game's normal difficulty is the sweet spot for kids and leaves room for completionists. You can go gun blazing through levels or make your brain sweat a bit for rewarding 'hacks'. For a somewhat higher challenge I do recommend the DLC. Both parents and their offsprings, each will find something fantastic in this game. The pinnacle would be versus mode for 2 computers, with split screen each - please Snapshot Games, add this in future.2 found this helpful
A family friendly take on Brutal Legend that adds a bit of 3D platformer chops and third person shooting to make the whole thing a lot more engaging (sorry DoubleFine). Less than 100 reviews?? Whatsoever the heck!!2 found this helpful
I do not usually write reviews for games but this is one of the most well designed and underrated games I have ever seen. The spoofy comic book sci-fi style, with two plucky characters was nailed perfectly. The humor was excellent and surprising at times. The combat was balanced between RTS and shooter in a way I have never experienced and I am now craving more DLC, more bots, weapons, enemies etc. Take my money! Keep it coming team! some idea, Let me mod my bots with rocket launchers(shooter bots), ground pound (boxers), Defensive drones(air) and, artillery turn them into long range turrets that deploy like StarCraft tanks. Coop mode where chip and claw are one character and the other player plays the brainoids against the next DLC menace and the plant people. That last mission was super interesting from the DLC. Make the brainoids and humans team up. For the love of all that is good. Show us the baby cow.
super fun with a friend. Has a cartoony graphics, smooth gameplay and has a splitscreen if you want to play with your gf/ Wife/ kid. Hope there's more mission. Please add more campaign dlc. :)
pretty fun I loved it
Fun game brev
