WinKings

WinKings (a play on Vikings) is an arena shooter with terrific visuals and a Nordic soundtrack to die for. But the promising art style coupled with only decent gameplay quickly leads to burnout. It leaves you crying out for more – but you still won’t complain about the time spent with it.

Fun and joyful gameplay especially in cooperative mode with friends.
Terrific visuals and a well-received Nordic soundtrack enhance the atmosphere.
Smooth character movement on good computers and overall enjoyable for some players.

Single player mode is simplistic, repetitive and somewhat pointless compared to co-op.
Controls are clunky, buggy, and lacking customization options like keybinding remaps.
Gameplay is basic and uninspired with fixed resolution and no graphics customization.
