Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
24 of 100 sampled reviews raised it
I am still learning as I go, but the gameplay loop is pretty fun, jump on, issue some orders, build some ships or buildings, make sure your raids are still going well, rinse and repeat.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
14 of 100 sampled reviews raised it
The multiplayer mode of Riftborne works really well as a "background" game, that you occasionally check in on a few minutes here and there.
Linux compatibility
Players who bring up Linux compatibility mostly praise it.
7 of 100 sampled reviews raised it
Now with full linux support and the ability to self-host the multiplayer servers easily.
Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
5 of 100 sampled reviews raised it
The interface is more than a stylistic gimmick because it directly shapes how the game is played.
