What players say

Players enjoy the simple, silly fun and quirky characters like Thug Blob. One also compares it to a budget GTA with a tense story and horde mode, while another calls it a retro arcade game like Space Invaders meets Back to the Future. The ending is a cliffhanger, leaving some craving a sequel.
