I had almost forgotten about this game. Then I remembered I got it free from Humble Bundle back in October. I just hadn't gotten around to playing it. It seems I really didn't miss much. I'm sure this type of game is for some people, but it just isn't for me. I did all the tutorials. I found them excruciatingly boring. But I figured, well, it's not really fair to quit now when I haven't even played one online co-op game. I'm sure that where all the fun is. So I got on the queue to join a coop game. This is the day of the daily deal on Steam, surely there's lots of people online. Well, I was on queue for about 3 minutes so it wasn't that bad. I can imagine a normal day, however, when it's not the daily deal. Anyways, I get stuck as an engineer. Great, the one class that I was most bored with in the tutorial. You basically run around and bang on stuff or put a fire out. Maybe you get to shoot stuff if you're not taking too much damage. And sure enough, that was the whole game for me. We successfully completed our wave too. There were some rewards. But the biggest reward was being able to quit the game. The game mechanics were just too simple and not very fun. The graphics are outdated. The UI and gameplay are clunky. (However, this game would probably be fun in VR & everyone has a mic and headset there.) Rate 3/10. Do you like busy work? Do you like group projects at work and look forward to coming home so you can do some more group work? Then this game is perfect for you. I don't. So I didn't enjoy this game at all.
