this game really really shines in its pvp. pvp is the best place to try out the game mechanics, and strategies of this game. the fact that both teams will be the same level, and same slot worth of units. you can't just bring in whatever and have it work all the time, and you can't just go to your high levels when you struggle. it's about just actual teamcomp and positioning if you want to do well.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
27 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The narrator's voice acting is great and he has some funny, sarcastic lines.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Pit People is a turn-based strategy adventure developed and published by The Behemoth, the studio known for its unmistakable art style and irreverent humor in titles like Castle Crashers and BattleBlock Theater.
