I can recommend this game if you want to have good fun with friends. The only issue i have with it is the FOMO... I preordered it after testing it at gamescom and i don't regret it. What i (sadly) regret is missing out on certain animals since they were only acquirable for a limited time and are since then gone. Red Pandas are my absolute favourite animal and a huge part of my life. I voted for Red Pandas to be implemented in the early days and I am really disappointed to find out I won't be able to get it myself since I missed it... It's totally okay the create a bit exclusivity for players that play regularly but even eternally locking the base animal leaves a bit of a sour taste in my mouth. minor improvements on the loading screens to reduce wait time would be good but besides that i would say it is a solid game for a fair price tag.

Buyer beware: this isn't a game to play if you care about things like being able to control your actual character and control what they do. This is a game to play while drunk, where you cannot tell whether your inability to control your character is due to your blithering drunkenness or the developers' intentional design. This is a fun party game, and they make no aspersions about that title. You all get in a little murder blob and enjoy the fun sounds of animals punching each other. It ain't for me, but it'd deffo fun.

For a first time player of a game like this, I found it hard to control the character I was playing - do not skip the tutorial in the beginning, it is a very helpful review of the game controls. Using a game controller was much more ergonomic than the keyboard and helped me get used to the style of game-play. Overall, I found the concept of the game to be fun, but not something I can play for hours on end, as I am more of a puzzle gamer. The characters are cute & derpy and there is a huge pool to select from. The stage with the icebergs is one of my favorites.

My favorite party game! I play it daily nowadays. It's easy to pick up and jump right in. The matches are not that long either and dailies and weeklies don't feel grindy. While the fighting stays the same, different maps all have their own style and differ in mechanics. There is even a relatively new kart mode, which is really fun, even though it is still in beta and has just three maps yet. And I really love the characters, they are super cute and funny. Collecting new costumes is my favorite part. The only problem is the game chat which is quite limited (messages disappear really fast) and I can only barely understand people in voice chat. That's not really important in this game though. So far I got tons of costumes without spending real money on micro-transactions. You can even get some premium currency by continuous playing. So unless you want all the costumes or very specific ones, no need to spend more after the initial purchase.

Long story short? 🤔 The game is fun and justifies its price (I’ve paid ~$6.5) — it has a really slick and nice UI, UX is decent enough, the gameplay is tons of fun and some modes/maps are hilarious 😂 There’s quite a variety of modes: • Mario Kart alike gamemode • Fighting maps • Team based maps where you need to do various objectives (the most diversed mode) • Smash Bros-esque 6 rounds fighting mode with roguelite (kinda) element! • Also there’s a hub map (available only in Custom Modes) with 2 board games — one is, basically, UNO, but another one I didn’t try (needs more than 2 players). • And so on… My main gripe with the game is that Party Animals desperately needs more content — and I’m not talking about cosmetics, but maps and modes. Currently, there’s quite little variety! While the game is fun for the first time which you can prolong by playing a few maps per one time, but you will consume all the content pretty fast. Actually very fast. The game will last way longer if you have friends/family/partner, but it still won’t last long. Maybe a few weekends, tops. The only solution I see is for the devs to drop one map/mode per month, at least. Okay, maybe per two months, which is hilariously bad, but still something. The game is paid but there’s such a huge amount of paid content, it’s baffling. Like so many paid currencies! Remember that hub map I’ve talked about? You can buy placeable stuff like swings and fireworks for ONE OF PAID CURRENCIES — and these placeables are CONSUMABLES, so they are not infinite. You can, somehow, earn this paid currency, but it’s very-very slow. There’s an in-game currency (which you can still exchange to via main paid currency), but you cannot buy much stuff for it. There are even loot boxes. I’m okay-ish with them, however you get very little currency for said loot boxes — though you can pay real money to get them, of course. Anyway, I wish the devs all the best, I really hope they will add more content reasonably fast. If they implement some sort of map/mode builder, then it’ll be a banger for sure! 🔥 Well, that’s about it. Message to the devs ✉️ “You are cooking a really good game, you already making something extremely fun and diverse — please continue making good stuff and do not abandon the game, neither flood it with microtransactions. Also, thanks a lot for the Friend’s Pass system — it’s amazing! We can invite one player for free and play with them in (almost?) all modes!” P.S: The game doesn’t have an offline mode (or so it seems). Please keep it in mind. I didn’t test local co-op, but, as far as I understand, it works. However, again, you need to have internet connection. I do not know any limitations of local co-op, but I do know that there’s split screen (not every map/mode has it!) and you can connect multiple controllers. Hopefully someone will make a handler for this game for NucleusCOOP 💯
