The verdict
A polished, stylish co-op action roguelike with distinct heroes and tight combat, but only three repeating maps and bosses, harsh difficulty, shaky netcode and paid DLC heroes. Skip if you want lots of content.
Great for
Co-op groups who enjoy learning hero builds and tough, skill-based timed runs
Main risk
Only three maps and bosses repeat, so it gets stale fast, especially solo
What changed in the last 30 days
114 recent reviews
Recent negative reviews cite patch 1.6 talent nerfs seen as a mere number tweak, more paid DLC heroes and skins, and little new content. Fairly confident.
