What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
STRAFE is a retro style, rogue-lite FPS inspired by old school shooters from the 90s.
Progression: this is another wet fart. you unlock ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ between successful runs, even in NG+ mode.
+The soundtrack is the best part, it's high tempo retro electronica.
Horribly optimized, I thought I had gained some sort of slow-motion power up during the "final boss" but it was just the game failing to keep up with spawning the exact same 3 enemy types over and over again.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. One more theme was raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and is not shown.
