Couch co-op mayhem
From the opening graphics I was instantly reminded of the arcade cabinets of my youth, although I'll grant you that was quite sometime ago now so some of my memory might be a little coloured. The game is a cooperative dungeon brawler that sees your group of four adventurers quickly determining who is the mightiest, setting the scene for a 3 v 1 where the aim is to slay the adventurer if you're the party of three, or to survive and defeat the ultimate (randomly selected) boss at the heart of the dungeon. As the antagonists (The ghosts) you can use traps, throw vases and inhabit the bodies of eldritch enemies with the soul purpose of killing your one-time buddy and assuming life once more. If you're fortunate to be the living protagonist then you are constantly beset on all sides by your three best buddies, now somewhat more dead than they were when you set off on this crazy adventurer. As you slay enemies and gain loot, you level up, delving deeper and deeper through the levels of the dungeon, leveling up your main hero plus your monster pool. Once you've hit the appropriate level you'll be offered access to fight the boss and see if you can conquer the dungeon completely and whether you succeed or not, you gain unlocks for the next run and fun new enemies to play against and with. Overall I've had great fun with this couch-coop game and it has always been a blast. Each dungeon takes about half hour to 45 minutes but it doesn't feel long, most of the characters feel fun to play and the opportunity to level up your monster pool during a run is great fun as you unlock greater and more powerful entities. Well worth a purchase but you'll need buddies to play with, as the AI, although competent, really doesn't have the same feel or element of fun that having friends around to play does. Graphically it is a cohesive package and the audio is suitable for the style throughout, this was obviously a labour of love that is well worth sharing.
