The gameplay is engaging and customizable, allowing multiple players to track their characters effectively across seven distinct game modes. While the requirement for controllers can be frustrating, the physics-based mechanics and the need for quick reactions enhance the overall experience, with options like the Steam Deck available for play.
- “The game is cute with enough customizability to allow a few people to play simultaneously while keeping track of their own character effectively. There are 7 different game modes to choose from, all of which differ enough to keep them interesting. While it is somewhat annoying that the game requires controllers to play, the physics-based gameplay and the quick reactions needed benefit immensely from using a controller. The Steam Deck is also an option.”
