What players say

89% of 25,749 reviews are positive · 87% of 190 in the last 30 days

Players most often praise the absurd comedy, extensive voice work, colorful alien settings, and talking guns with different attacks. The most common complaints are repetitive, generic-feeling gunplay and nonstop jokes that wear thin when the humor does not land. Some recent players also report game-breaking progression bugs, including being trapped during backtracking or losing access to weapon upgrades.
