    Arcadegeddon is a strong game with a lot to offer and with more to come post-launch, players can expect an ever-growing game that is addicting and easy to jump in and out of.

    Arcadegeddin is a fun and engaging roguelite/shooter. Be aware that there are still a bunch of minor bugs and glitches despite a long Early Access period, but hopefully the devs will fix them soon.

    Arcadegeddon does not aspire to the replayability of The Binding of Isaac and does not flaunt the productive values of Returnal, but in its small way it succeeds very well in its intent: to create a roguelite characterized by an important arcade component, a fun cooperative mode and a structure different from all. his most distinguished colleagues. Sure, after all this time in Early Access we would have liked a little more refinement, but even with his minor flaws Arcadegeddon manages to entertain hours and hours.

    Arcadegeddon is a good game that knows what it wants to do and manages to deliver it with relative success. Despite a few technical issues and limited content at launch, it's easy to spend hours having fun with friends. Unfortunately, the solo experience leaves a lot to be desired.

    The finely-tuned combat and stylish execution make Arcadegeddon an undeniably good time despite it lacking the creativity to fully utilize its own themes.

    I had an incredible time with the game, and though I have put in a decent amount of hours. Even after getting my boss cleared, I am still going back and playing it again and again to try to get more of the collectables for killing them. I really hope that the launch goes well and that the servers hold up with the release of the game because frankly it's one of the most enjoyable experiences I have had in a long time. I hope we get more bosses released and new areas released over time, if this game gets some decent support I could see it growing. Right now some folk may be frustrated with only 4 bosses, and though the biomes are nice they do seem a little limited but for launch it is looking really impressive and I can't wait to see where it goes.

    The roguelike charm is present in Arcadegeddon and the gameplay is extremely polished. However, while the game pleases at first glance and can be an experience to share with friends online, the repetitive objectives take some of the shine off the unique identity and strong personality given to the game and hide rich content from players who decide not to invest so much time in the game.

Makes a great family battle night, and especially fun to play with a group of friends. Has some early bugs but I know the developers plan to work out the kinks as the game was just released, so still giving a 10/10. Great to see this new style from IllFonic and excited to see what this team has in store with coming titles!!!… Expand

Soundtrack is dope, weapons are all great and have their own uses, controls areArcadegeddon is the best feeling game I've played In so long. Soundtrack is dope, weapons are all great and have their own uses, controls are intuitive, premium items are limited to 4-5 outfits that don't offer much compared to what you can unlock playing so you never feel like your missing out, they could've even made purchase continues but didn't which says so much about the team behind it, pvp seems well balanced, I love the aesthetic it's reminds me of the cartoon reboot, and the story reminds me of ready player one which works since it doesn't feel like the games trying to milk me for money like every other free game. I honestly don't know why this game hasn't seen a massive wave of hype I'm super in love with it even though the gameplay loop is simple. The only negative I can think of is the fact I've already seen PC players using cheat engine which is just **** dirty when endgame is a leaderboard. I mean come on guys it's a skill based challenge there no real benefit to cheating it just makes you look like a d-bag. All in all I give this 5 out of 5. I can already tell once I burn myself out it'll become my casual go to game for killing time or in between games which is exactly what I need… Expand

Thus, you can get into the action well alone or with three friends. The graphic performance has become unique and original. The story also remains a means to an end most of the time, but can still convince. In terms of gameplay, you can experience good entertainment and a lot of action. We can only agree with the 1 million players in "Arcadegeddon" and invite you to try the title.… Expand
