Tbh this game is a lot of fun and for 10 dollars you get a lot of content in this game like tons of careers to choose from tons of weapons and items you can find around the map and levels to discover and most of the time its on sale for 5 dollars now its not the best looking game and its a little buggy but if you get past that its like those fun little indie games you use to play when you were younger on xbox 360. miss those days

actually a fun game i ran it with 2 others and we found weapons on the 2nd level after that shooting or ending anything that moved was really fun but the only issue i had was when getting really geared up it feels like the only real challenge is the hunger system we only went down -20ish levels though could get better going further

Honestly? This is a comfort game for me to relax with. The addition of explore mode honestly might be seen as 'boring' to some people, but I personally have gotten the most play out of it. I love mindlessly exploring games just to destress, and having something like that with an active dev adding new stuff all the time is pretty great. I never have been able to find anyone to play multiplayer with, admittedly. But with the leaderboards and added weapon content and stuff, I can see it being pretty fun! Also, keep in mind, screamer sounds can be toggled in settings if you want to play without having your ears blown out in the normal mode lol. Not anything jarring or scary, just loud! (But I'm sure there are people made tense by that kinda thing) All in all, if you like a lot of options for play, or just need a game to explore for the sake of exploring, I can rec this!
