What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Running With Rifles is a top-down shooter somewhere between arcade and realism gameplay where you play as one soldier just as expendable as all the AI ones around you.
The multiplayer experience in the game is pretty dull and doesn’t really offer any real incentive to play it.
On the other hand, the campaign scenarios are immersive and highly detailed, with various elements such as buildings, roads and bridges that add value to the gameplay.
The graphics are good with a very minimalistic style, since they’re not the main focus of the game.
Multiplayer works very well with seemingly effective netcode.
It's super easy to host a server for some coop fun with friends, and the game is super easy to mod.
