Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Even with the lag spikes regularly and the bugs here and there, me and my friend have been playong daily just enjoying the gameplay loop, looting, the rng gods blessings, and just having fun in a co-op mmorpg survival.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Behind the simple 2D graphics was one of the most atmospheric and soul-heavy survival experiences I ever played.

Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
tl;dr: Devs flip the economy around, change the cash shop, increase upgrade times 5x, add a way to pay real money to get around it, and are now adding PvP.

Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
Since the game is MMO the players are actually nice I met a lot of good people that will help you when you co-op or just in general they are friendly most of them are from the official game server and not steam.
