Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Characters ragdoll in spectacular fashion, and the cheese itself behaves like a mischievous force of nature—sometimes bouncing gracefully, sometimes launching into the air like it’s trying to escape the planet.

Monetization
Players who bring up Monetization mostly praise it.
very fun with friends. its a very silly game while also challenging and surprisingly competitive. i can suggest for both a game night with friends, or online server hopping to see who is the best cheese roller. game also runs great. skins are a bit expensive though. if it had workshop support for custom maps and skins i would consider putting it in my daily rotation.
