The verdict
A free 3D Among Us-style shooter with proximity voice chat and paranoia that shines with a big group of friends. Skip it if you'll rely on public lobbies, which are nearly empty.
Great for
Groups of 4+ friends who want a free, chaotic Among Us-meets-The-Thing shooter with proximity voice chat
Main risk
Public servers are empty or dominated by toxic veterans, so you can't find a match without friends
What players love
Better than Among Us: 3D, guns, depth
Mentioned in ~1 in 6 positive reviews
“among us but better in every practical way. Proximity voice chat was great, gunplay/map design was extremely well made, and everything was just so silly.”

Toxic community and veteran dominance
Mentioned in ~1 in 8 negative reviews
“Community is toxic as all hell. Instead of explaining to me a game mechanic, spacemen shot me to death as a spaceman, instead of using words.”
