Was playing the game co-op with a friend. About 3 hours in, the game cuts to a mandatory, 7-minute-long Single Player level. Why?

This may have been released on April Fool's day, but it is a completely earnest story that feels completely in line with the IDW Comic writing. The team that made this should be proud.

The best tool you'll ever use for any purpose.

This game delivers on all of its promises, and more. I was sold on just the premise of flying a sea-plane and making pizza, but there was unexpected depth in the form of small quests given to you by the inhabitants of the disparate islands.

The flying mechanics feel like a dream. Splashing down to land is great. Being able to navigate with just a compass and paper map is fun and manageable.

The visuals and soundtrack complement each other very well.

Would definitely recommend.

This game tickles the part of your brain that likes optimizing things, without demanding perfection. It features a true depth of building options, and an endearing cast of characters. The music is relaxing enough to listen to for hours as well.

If you think you might like this game, you most certainly will.

It's Symphony of the Night, but with the obvious improvement of being Lodoss-themed.

A fun, co-op twist on the age-old bullet hell genre. Excellent for parties!

Try as I might, I'm unable to squeeze any fun out of this game. It is simply too reliant on the luck of what you are offered to be enjoyable.

With other strategy games, one at least feels like they could have done something to play better. With Underlords, you will often know what you need to counter the opponents that can beat you, but the game will simply not offer you any of the pieces necessary to act on this idea. For example, your opponent may have been given a bounty of Knights which gain percentage damage resist. To counter this, you need to break their formation with Tiny's toss or a Force Staff. However, the game probably will just not offer you these options.

This, coupled with the way the gold system works means that the lucky player who gets offered enough units to combine by the second round can coast on that without spending additional gold, allowing them to level up faster and snowball even harder.

the only CRIME here is that you haven't played Investi-Gator yet!
