Don't let the cute aesthetic fools you though, the game can get really intense sometimes »👍 anonymous review · 9 h played1« Improves on the original game (which I loved) and gives you so many more options for your run than the last one. I feel there is much more to do in this game, and every run is different instead of just hoping for the best wagons »👍 anonymous review · 15 h played1« TRAIN GAME BEST GAME!!!!

« Why would you let 4 of my friends join the lobby only to kick 1 out when the game starts?! The on-boarding experience was 0/10, the lollipop is in fact not a universal sign of "I have completed this task" »👎 anonymous review · 0 h played1« this game is just the base game, but with about 20 different stressful pointless addons. just play the first one, it's no different (unless you like being insanely stressed ig) »👎 anonymous review · 0 h played1« Can't even play multiplayer my brother can join anyone and it's not firewall either, he gets the same connection error, failed to connect or lost connection to host havnt been able to get into 1 lobby with him »👎 anonymous review · 2 h played« The first game is very raw, but shows promise. This game proves they break those. The AI doesn't work, so no playing by yourself, there are a lot of bugs, and its not balanced at all. »👎 anonymous review · 57 h played« Dude i want desperately to have a good word to say on the game but when im having issues with the launch sequince in 2026 i dont think i can leave a good one »👎 anonymous review · 3 h played« Good game for co-op, difficult in places, gets boring quickly and is too expensive. »👍 anonymous review · 0 h played
