  • Goblin Company offers a fun and engaging co-op experience with friends, featuring chaotic and enjoyable gameplay loops centered around mining, building rail systems, and resource management.
  • The game has a charming art style, a good soundtrack, and a humorous goblin theme that adds personality and entertainment value.
  • Developers are active and responsive, regularly patching bugs and issues, with good customer support and ongoing updates planned, showing strong potential for future improvements.
  • The game suffers from numerous bugs and technical issues, including glitchy minecarts that often derail or disappear, performance drops with frequent lag and crashes, and occasional save/load problems leading to lost progress.
  • Some gameplay mechanics, such as the direction controls of minecarts, platform placement, and the fear of darkness mechanic, feel unpolished and frustrating, which can detract from the overall experience.
  • Limited content and replayability due to a single handcrafted map and lack of procedural generation, combined with a pacing that can feel slow or grindy, especially during early gameplay or solo sessions.

    The gameplay is praised for its satisfying core loop centered on rail and minecart mechanics, creative humor, and enjoyable co-op experiences that foster teamwork and fun moments. While many find the mechanics engaging and the progression steady, there are recurring criticisms of bugs, clunky or unpolished features, and occasional performance issues that affect flow and immersion. Overall, despite some frustrating elements and needed fixes, the gameplay offers a unique and enjoyable mining adventure, especially with friends.

    • “The best part is that the small inventory size requires you to build around the rails and minecarts, which makes the gameplay loop reinforce every part of the game's mechanics in a really satisfying way.”
    • “The cart mechanic is great overall and is easily scratching that itch for deep rock mining levels in a more casual environment.”
    • “I'm having a lot of fun with the mine cart mechanic, which you can link up a whole bunch of them that work as a moving storage unit and fast travel.”
    • “I find that it drags the early game on for a bit too long, and some mechanics are clunky, but it's by far not as buggy as other reviews would make you believe.”
    • “The game has potential but needs a few fixes first. There are bugs like no clipping through the floor and dying to lava, which can happen when getting out of the cart near a wall. There are some small bugs being hotfixed, but enough bugs remain to make it frustrating, along with bad mechanics like not being able to pick up a cart without driving it off rails first, or the cart gun for mining which disables driving, making carts quite frustrating to use overall.”
    • “That's not to say that it isn't fun to mess around with a friend or two while playing, but the janky camera, terrible clipping issues (I fell through the world more than once and died), low impact on everything you do, and a general slog of a gameplay loop make it hard to recommend.”

  • stability

    25 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The game shows clear potential but is frequently marred by numerous bugs, glitches, and stability issues, including frustrating freezes during autosave and problematic mechanics like buggy rail and cart controls. While some users find the bugs manageable and believe ongoing patches will improve the experience, others feel these stability problems significantly detract from the fun, making the game frustrating at times. Overall, stability remains a major concern that hampers enjoyment despite the game's underlying appeal.

    • “Alright game with tons of bugs. Worst issue is the freeze during autosave where you lose about 5 minutes of progress. The cart mechanics are also very annoying, often going backwards instead of straight when holding a direction. It's frustrating and developers need to focus on fixing these stability issues before working on other features.”
    • “This game will be good but right now it's a buggy, frustrating mess.”
    • “"Autosaving" freezes the game and you can't turn it off via options.”

  • story

    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    30% positive mentions, 40% neutral mentions, 30% negative mentions

    The story aspect is generally seen as lacking or minimal, with many users noting there's little to no cohesive narrative or engaging story beats. Some feel the missions and gameplay don’t tie together well, making the overall experience feel repetitive and disconnected. There are suggestions for improving story progression and adding depth to make the campaign more meaningful.

    • “Definitely needs some work to fix some of the bugginess but the gameplay loop is very fun and I'll be coming back to finish the story/campaign.”
    • “I will say we may have done the quests out of suggested order but after building the rocket to completion, the need for yellow crystals is not there because by that time you likely have all your upgrades as well.”
    • “But it was probably intended to do the yellow quest first to have the funds to make the rocket, I'm sure.”
    • “Not really a story to follow.”
    • “It's very conflicting, it needs story beats for this to make sense and there's basically no story.”
    • “Almost no action whilst doing the same thing every mission.”

  • optimization

    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    30% positive mentions, 40% neutral mentions, 30% negative mentions

    Optimization is inconsistent, with some users experiencing performance issues such as frame drops, crashes, and glitches that require lowering settings for smoother play, while others report stable performance without problems. The game suffers from bugs and occasional performance dips, particularly after alt-tabbing, impacting overall gameplay enjoyment. Despite these issues, many find it playable and enjoyable, especially with friends, though it could benefit from better technical polish.

    • “At recommended settings, I experienced some performance issues, but lowering the settings gave me perfect performance; attaching my PC specs in case it helps.”
    • “No performance issues for me.”
    • “The game's performance ran smoothly with only one crash after 10.5 hours, which autosave handled without loss; overall a great experience.”
    • “It's clunky, overly complicated, poorly optimized, and entirely dull.”
    • “But the game starts to get hard to love as the bugs and glitches continue to grow, and the performance continues to dip.”
    • “Alt-tabbing can in some cases nuke performance of the game until restart.”

  • humor

    89% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 11% negative mentions

    The game features creative, tongue-in-cheek humor that often leads to funny and memorable moments, especially in co-op play.

    • “Very fun mechanics and creative tongue-in-cheek humor.”
    • “The co-op gameplay creates many funny and memorable moments.”
    • “My husband and I beat it in like 2 weeks but with lots of hilarious deaths and arguments about where tracks go along the way.”

  • music

    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    38% positive mentions, 62% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The music in the game is highly praised for being fun, catchy, and unique, often described with playful terms like "goblincore" and featuring standout reggae/pop-inspired tracks. Players enjoy the soundtrack so much that it adds to the overall charm and atmosphere, with some even recommending naming the artist "Gob Marley." Additionally, the soundtrack is available for purchase at an affordable price, enhancing the game's appeal.

    • “The music is really good, my friends took to calling it "goblincore" and never stopped getting a kick out of it.”
    • “Sidenote: they have an amazing version of what sounds like reggae/pop music for the soundtrack.”
    • “The soundtracks are fantastic and are available to buy super cheap.”

  • graphics

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    50% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 50% negative mentions

    The graphics receive mixed feedback, with some users praising the overall art style and visual appeal, while others feel the graphics quality is lacking despite adjusting settings. Overall, the game's art style is appreciated, though technical graphical performance may vary.

  • replayability

    33% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 67% negative mentions

    Replayability receives mixed feedback: some find it limited and unlikely to encourage multiple playthroughs, while others praise the game for offering impressive fun and replay value relative to its price.

    • “For the price, the amount of fun and replayability here is honestly impressive.”
    • “Makes the game less replayable, of course, but then again I doubt anyone was going to do that anyway.”
    • “The replayability goes pretty far out the window.”

  • grinding

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Grinding in the game is generally manageable, with resource collection and setbacks like losing minecarts not significantly hindering progress. However, building rails can be tedious and frustrating due to the complicated support requirements and inconvenient wooden platform mechanics.

    • “If the resource grinding was tougher or the resources were harder to obtain, the little issues could ruin the experience, but the game is all about exploration and obstacles, so losing some minecarts doesn't really set you back much.”
    • “Building rails is mind-numbingly tedious as they need support but wooden platforms are implemented in the most annoying way possible.”

  • atmosphere

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The game's atmosphere perfectly captures the quirky, hardworking goblin vibe with a blend of humor and charm, creating a cozy and engaging environment. Players find the lighthearted, ramshackle world addictive and enjoyable.

    • “This game is all about the vibe; it truly is a game about goblins working hard for the higher goblins. The atmosphere balances hilarity perfectly, showing that these green little guys just ramshackle junk together to get the job done. My buddy and I have become absolutely addicted to this game.”
    • “It has lots of interesting mechanics and a cozy atmosphere.”

  • emotional

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
