What players say

Players describe Steel Strider as a twin-stick run 'n gun with a persistent aim reticle issue that some find unplayable. The difficulty is high even on easy, but the unlimited continues and checkpoint saves soften it. Reviews split on controls: some call them tight and modern, others say aim constantly resets.
