The verdict

A chaotic, destructible 80s/90s action-movie run-and-gun with a huge roster of parody heroes, best with friends on the couch. Skip it if one-hit deaths, random character swaps and netcode issues annoy you.

Great for

Friends who want chaotic couch co-op and fans of 80s/90s action movie parody

Main risk

Random characters, one-hit deaths and unfair late-game chaos turn fun into frustration, especially solo

Random character switching and weak bros
