Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
There are quite a few characters to choose from, except they take so long to unlock, they may as well not exist at all, save for those 'explorer' mode unlockable paths.
127 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Many characters are designed with a survivor gameplay in mind (standing still or staying in a limited area using turret style skills, extremely limited dodging ability, and skills that slow you down), but being forced to run around the map means these characters are just too annoying to play.
107 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Some visuals create too much clutter, however, reducing the opacity prevents important visuals from being seen.
32 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
Additionally, if playing on Steam Deck, I recommend setting one of the back buttons to dodge (its set to B by default).
10 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The sound design supports this with punchy effects and upbeat music that reinforces the game’s brisk pace.
