Beautiful scenery, nice dialogue, and decent re-playability are the three things Vermintide does best. As Fallout 3 is to the classic Fallout franchise, Vermintide feels like a different take on Mordheim City of the Damned only if it was more of a Left 4 Dead 2 clone, with some Payday 2 and Chivalry: Medieval Warfare mixed in. I really think its weird how many people argue that Left 4 Dead 2 is far superior, while in truth it’s a seven year old game that’s far more basic in almost every way. Overall, I’d say it’s worth at least $20. Great co-op, less great solo.

This is a shooter quite like no other. The Wild West themed bullet circus is utterly insane and enjoyable. All the mechanics of the game feel finely tuned and precise: dodging bullets and sending them back feels so intuitive you should never have to stand there and bleed. The levels and areas are all varied and peppered with details and events such as carrying a giant explosive piñata, robbing banks, dodging rolling crates and so on. The structure of the game has these different level types shuffled around and enemy placement is randomized, but this only one small part of what keeps the action fun and exciting throughout.
