I had such high hopes for Mongrel. It definitely looks like my sort of game. It is a run and gun metroidvania with dark (sometimes toilet-style) humor. That being said, I just could not get past the control scheme. For me, metroidvanias are best played with a controller, and Mongrel (at least not at the time of this writing) does not offer good controller support. There are vital controls missing from the controller layout, and what is there, doesn't feel good. It controls alright with a mouse and keyboard, but at times, the mouse and keyboard controls feel just okay at best and clunky at worst. If Mongrel got some good controller support, I believe that it could be an amazing game, especially at its price point; however, in its current state, I cannot recommend it.2 found this helpful
many stability issues, frequently crashes in random "load zones" (theres nothing telling you the game is loading just a black screen, and pray it doesnt crash!).1 found this helpful
30 second load screens between each area.1 found this helpful
Wow. This game is really something. Great storyline, amazing voice acting - really gets the blood pumping. It takes you places you wouldn't predict, and you're always waiting for that next twist. The humour is something out of this world, nothing I've ever seen in a game before. So beware, this is not for the easily offended.1 found this helpful
If you like Postal, you'll like Mongrel. Stick around the town and talk to folks. It's absolutely worth it.
I’m writing this 7/31/23 The game is in early access, and the big update hasn’t arrived yet, but I would still 100% recommended anyone to buy it (even without full controller support, which is one of my biggest pet peeve’s) because it’s fun, and hilarious! If the big update turns out to be half as good as I think it will, this is for sure gonna be on hidden gem lists in the decades to come!
