Gang Beasts

Gang Beasts is a game for friends. It's funny, silly and inconsequential. With a huge array of costumes to wear and places to brawl, you can play one game or ten and have a great time.

Not quite the classic it could have been, and the appeal wanes with time, but still a strong party starter. [Feb 2018, p.72]

Gang Beasts has a special touch on its core mechanic, a good mix between funny physics and functional scenarios that will make you laugh like no other game if you have friends to play on local multiplayer. Unfortunately after a long early access the game still feels unfinished with technical problems and terrible servers to play online.

While there's online support, it's a bit too sterile compared to offline matchups. [Feb 2018, p.91]

Gang Beasts comes across more like a novelty than a fully fleshed out game but that doesn't necessarily mean that it isn't fun.

At its core, Gang Beasts is a lot of fun. Between its wacky physics, creative level design, and copious amounts of character customization options, there's a lot here for groups of friends to enjoy. If the online element pulls itself together, there's enough reason to keep coming back for a few occasional matches and some new laughs. It's worth a try, because the laughs I did have while playing this have been priceless.

I like the idea of Gang Beasts on paper. Hell, I even like Gang Beasts when I see other players play. The jelly physics of up to eight players smashing into one another and trying to toss each other over the edge is great fun in theory, but becomes more of a frustrating chore and test of patience in practice.

The funniest Game out there, not only because of the bugs. Without them the Game just wouldn’t be itself. Also way better than Party Animals. It’s also available on almost every Platform, so please give it a Try.

While not a game that'll blow your socks off, gang beasts is a phenomenal game when it comes to having some fun with your friends. Wacky physics and stages keep gameplay refreshing no matter the experience level of the crowd.

lacks content but its good.

This game is in a word “inconsistent.” The game mechanics have plenty of hidden features including certain clothing changing mechanics. Certain items of clothing absolutely do more damage than others, but again, not of it is stated anywhere. Not in tutorials or anything. The game is extremely inconsistent and janky on controls and response. They’re will be times where when knocked out, you can get up immediately 1 knockout. Other times for some reason or another it doesn’t work 1 knockout, and other players will get up immediately after 3-4 knockout. There is no consistency. Don’t take this s*it serious because it will just make you angry. Lazy dev programming keeps this from being anything other than a major time waster if you’re more than 5 years old.

It is a silly game and humorous at times. However, it is not for me but my 8yrs old likes it more. It is really a party game as it has no story mode and not fun as a single player. The control is simple but not responsive. Most of the time, I just try to grab the opponent as other moves seem pointless or not effective. I guess it would help if there is a tutorial to explain the moves. Maybe for 5 dollars it is worth buying just to entertain little kids or guests during a party.
