  • gameplay
    45 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of the game is characterized by its fast-paced, arcade-style mechanics and humorous elements, appealing to fans of titles like Team Fortress 2 and Overwatch. However, many players find it repetitive and frustrating due to limited modes and character options, alongside technical issues that detract from the overall experience. While the graphics and comedic aspects are praised, concerns about monetization and a dwindling player base have led to mixed reviews regarding its long-term enjoyment.

    • “The gameplay is fun, it's like I'm playing a TF2 MOBA and the controls are pretty solid.”
    • “Very funny fights, exciting gameplay, so I advise everyone to play, especially since it is now free, so playing with friends in the evening is a great choice.”
    • “The way they handled the classes and the gameplay is quite nice and amazing.”
    • “This game looked like it would be really fun, but over the years, checking in every now and then, it's just not stuck with a theme past the Vikings gameplay-wise, and it's a shame.”
    • “The gameplay is very repetitive quickly, and having to pay for three more characters sticks in my craw.”
    • “The game could be good if there were more than 10 people playing at any given time, as well as being made by a company who isn't trying to just make money off of a less than unique game with minimal time put into the actual gameplay.”
  • graphics
    30 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game are generally praised for their colorful, cartoonish art style reminiscent of titles like Team Fortress 2 and Paladins, with smooth animations and a fun aesthetic that complements the gameplay. However, some users report technical issues, including crashes and performance problems even on high-end systems, suggesting that while the visuals are appealing, they may not be fully optimized. Overall, the game features a unique and engaging visual design, but it still requires improvements in performance and polish.

    • “On the technical side, the game is designed to fit the overall theme in a comic art style with a slightly overweight valkyrie and a slightly crazy raider, each character having funny poses and voice-overs. The drunkard can set down a beer barrel for healing purposes, and all characters from his team around it start drinking beer from their mugs while regenerating.”
    • “The graphics and animation of this game remind me of Ubisoft's 'Mighty Quest for Epic Loot', and the art style is a mix of Team Fortress 2 and Paladins: Champions of the Realm.”
    • “The combat seems pretty fun, the graphics are smooth, and it has nice animations and sounds.”
    • “Crashes every 3 matches. I have a high-end graphics card (GTX 580 3GB) and it makes it run harder than it should. I play intense graphic games on high and I don't hear my computer sounding like it's dying. If you're in the process of fixing the game, maybe you should try harder because other early access games get their act together well before it hits a year.”
    • “It is unfinished; controls, graphics, and sound are really bad.”
    • “Great scam, worthless gameplay, outdated graphics, clunkiest controls, and a money shop.”

    • “On the technical side, the game is designed to fit the overall theme in a comic art style with a slightly overweight Valkyrie and a slightly crazy raider. Each character has funny poses and voice-overs (the drunkard can set down a beer barrel for healing purposes, and all characters from his team around it start drinking beer from their mugs while regenerating).”
    • “Bierzerkers is a good game, with cartoonish graphics and funny gameplay!”
    • “Brilliant art, funny (internet meme-based) dialogue, interesting abilities, and a possible bright future in store if enough people pick it up and keep playing.”
  • stability

    • “It worked, but it was very buggy and unplayable at the time I tried it.”
    • “Game is buggy and crashes a lot.”
    • “No community, and the game is so buggy. I played an entire game up until 3 seconds left, at which point I was switched to the losing team with my score reset and didn't get a single XP point... broken and deserted... gameplay is very fun though... shame the devs let it die.”

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Reviewers express a desire for a more developed story mode and additional cut scenes, indicating that while the game's graphics and animation are reminiscent of Ubisoft's "Mighty Quest for Epic Loot," the narrative aspect feels lacking and could benefit from deeper storytelling.
