Trench Run is a 2D multiplayer shooter that is exclusively about shooting people, blowing them up, and having fun in the process
22 of 62 sampled reviews raised it
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
Your character despite having full controller support seems to steer incredibly vaguely, with there not even being a traditional jump button.
5 of 62 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Broforce: A combination of epic pixel graphics, badass gameplay, and sweet campaign that can also be multiplayer make Broforce an awesome counterpart to Trench Run.

Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
The soundtrack is easily the worst part of the game for me with its incredibly repetitive, out-of-place plunky / lighthearted guitar and feels more like they're squeezing out a song made for the main menu across every single level.
