Steam reviews

What players say

Reviewers from the last year are split and mostly point to a dead player base; those who find a full lobby with friends still enjoy it, mainly for the lobby parkour.

Many players say the social deduction is fun when played with a group of friends, and several single out the parkour minigame in the lobby as the highlight, with some saying the main game matters less to them. Many reviewers call the game dead: lobbies are hard to fill, and some players say they only find hosts or servers with players who speak other languages. A few complain about being kicked from lobbies by strangers, and one points to a lack of patience needed to get into a match. Some reviewers say the developer's move to a paid sequel has drained the game, and a few older helpful reviews describe it as a strong free Among Us alternative. Since the reviews you read lean much more negative than Steam's totals, the complaints about empty servers weigh heavily here.

    A few players
Who it suits
Suits groups of friends who can fill a lobby together and enjoy chaotic deduction and a lobby parkour minigame.
