After over a decade of development, Sven Co-op launches on steam with a generous amount of well developed maps and fun gameplay. I only hope that we get regular updates that add more maps to keep the game alive. My favorite so far was "Danger of Collaps" or sc_doc. It offered action as well as puzzle solving which is sadly absent from most others. You'll find a variety of maps/gamemodes similar to that of Left 4 Dead. Not really a problem but It's much more satisfying to get on a server and work as a team to solve puzzles, you know, use your mind a little bit. Again I haven't played all the maps but the running theme is kill mindless zombies/aliens/soliders until you reach the next room. One downside is the lack of official servers. I know they're a modding group and don't focus on servers but the only "official ones" I found were the "Nightfire source" servers which are probably not related to Sven and I found them dreadfully laggy. I don't want to see this game one day have one or 2 servers up like some other source mods. I know the devs are VERY devoted but it's such a relief to be able to play this game with people who may have never downloaded the mod before.

Overall: Really fun and free to play. Only improvement i could think of is some official servers of some kind.
