Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“10 Years in early access. Very little progress. Dev comes back March 1st 2025 and drops a tiny update (to clear the Steam abandonment warning). Update literally says: He abandoned the game to work on UF0 50. He has formed a new company…”
“It's just kinda.. Not great. It feels floaty and bad and theres a lot of instakills. Characters that begin with 1/2 hp are almost worthless. The wanderer has a worthless ability. Overall it's just not really as good as it feels like it…”
