What players say

Players see Retchid as a deliberate homage to Doom 3, praising its dark atmosphere and exploration. Many find the early access price too high for the current state, and opinions split: some enjoy the challenge, while others call the difficulty frustrating with scarce ammo and unfair enemy placement. Gunplay is often described as stiff or unsatisfying.
