ANEURISM IV is an ambitious and deeply unconventional multiplayer sandbox that aims to simulate life, collapse, and rebirth in a dystopian city where every system is designed to feed emergent storytelling.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
14 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
All weapons cost different materials, and the harder to make/earn weapons are the strongest, but also the worst to lose upon death.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Incredibly brutal learning curve but after you get it it's game of the generation
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The graphics and sound design are probably the best part of this game.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
