How it feels

A frantic local-multiplayer brawler where you craft unique bots and blast through a carnival of game modes with friends.

What players say

Players praise the hookshot-based movement and combat, calling it fast and fun in local multiplayer. The single-player campaign is very short, around 20 minutes, and players are split on whether the lack of online multiplayer limits the game's potential.
