The gameplay is characterized by chaotic and hectic co-op multitasking, reminiscent of Overcooked, with a gradual increase in complexity as new mechanics are introduced throughout the campaign. While characters possess unique abilities that enhance the experience, some players express frustration with certain mechanics, particularly the "innocent bystander" feature, which they feel detracts from the overall enjoyment.
“You can expect all the chaos and hectic gameplay you know from these co-op multitasking games along with new mechanics being added throughout the campaign to keep it feeling fairly fresh.”
“It starts off simple, but you eventually get to gameplay that mirrors Overcooked pretty well.”
“Characters have special abilities that really help a lot and add some nuance to gameplay.”
“I'm so f***ing mad just writing about this, but this game took the 'innocent bystander' mechanic from Overcooked too far.”
“I can't say f*** loud enough to bring myself some level of chill about this mechanic.”
“I have zero chill over this mechanic.”
