I don't write reviews often, and this one I am writing looooong after I have abandoned the game (though surely will pick it up again one day). What can I say, rarely you see such a dedication, effort and love put into a game. I mean, production value is just above any expectations from a relatively small team. It is a SOLID product, meaning when you buy this you will get: * no experience breaking bugs * nice visuals and sound * solid gameplay (if you enjoy this kind of games) * engaging progression * continuous support (and updates!) * ...and a lot more that I have forgotten over years, or haven even seen as I missed a couple of major updates :) Imo not so many games can offer this for the price. Kudos to the team, you made something that I have sincerely enjoyed, every single moment of it. Keep rocking, guys!
I don't usually wait this long to write reviews for games I like this much, but it's been complicated to find bad things to say.. This game has a bit of everything I like, RTS building, Hordes of squishy things, destructible Environments and Actually useful Upgrades. Story wise, it's simple, easy to follow, and doesn't really block my gameplay much, which I appreciate. Enemies are your usual sets of weaker hordes with some stronger groups and special units thrown in to keep things interesting and incentivizing you to keep different weapons on your loadout to deal with them all, but it's not strict about it where it forces you to change things you like to use. Weapons themselves work really well and they all feel useable at any point of the game. From Machineguns, to Flamethrowers and Nuclear missiles, everything has a use. Researching into better tiers makes them even more powerful and adds Mod slots to change how they affect the enemies. Building in the game feels easy, maybe a different menu would work better since it starts getting a bit cluttered at the end, but everything that is necessary can be reached with hotkeys anyways and separated neatly into categories. Maps are limited during the campaign (Writing this while Version 2.0 which lets you generate new maps is still in Beta) but resources don't feel scarce, the Devs thought about people like me that like to get everything they can with alternate resource gathering methods, so you won't really feel stuck during the story. Overall it's an incredibly entertaining and relaxing game that I don't see myself stop playing soon. Looking forward to all the good stuff it will bring. Post 2.0 Edit: This took a while since the update adds quite a lot of new stuff to do. Original Review had me at a little over 70H, I'm writing this with 121H now. My opinion is very much the same, great game, no bad things to say about it. 2.0 adds some very very tough challenges with the new End-Game being a logistic nightmare (In all the best ways) and the new Omega class really making me understand that no matter what I'd never be truly ready for them. There really isn't a lot of added depth to the story, it's more of an Objective driven thing, but the new Random Generation maps are awesome. Just would like maybe a bit more choice on what kind of map size I wanted. The game really doesn't sugarcoat it with the final battle, easily the toughest fight in this game and it felt so ridiculously good to win it. All in all, I'm quite happy with the update.
i do not give a CRAP what anyone says. If you like to explore, fight, shoot, set traps, drop mines, spikes, drones, NUCLEAR MINES etc every elemental gun you can think of every melee weapon you can think of and realize you are piloting a robot in third person to fight explore do what you wand AND THEN..... buld walls a base power sats radar etc.... This game has it ALL. i cound myself playing for 12 hours in a row didnt eat piss ♥♥♥♥ nothing.... THen i realized real life is a calling. THATS how much this game can grip you. Say what you want. THis game is GOOD!!!
The story of Riftbreaker, not the story in the game, but the story *of* the game, is a fascinating one, and one which the big development studios should take notice of. This review is being written August 25, 2025, when the Co-Op function was added to the game, but I've been playing it since release. I would have recommended it back then, but now I absolutely have to. This game was made with no intention of multiplayer functionality, but because it's the perfect kind of game to play with friends, there was a huge outpouring of requests for it and the devs at EXOR set about the herculean task of adding multiplayer. Through the long saga of this function's development, they've kept up a regular series of updates on the process, but didn't skimp on regular gameplay content releases at the same time. EXOR is an exemplar of game development studios, willing to put in the hard work for something their community deeply desires. As for the game itself, if you liked the factorybuilder games that came before, and the tower-defense elements that some of them had, Riftbreaker will feel like a familiar but fresh experience, with its own innovations and focuses on the genres. The story mode is fantastic with phenomenal voice acting as well. I cannot recommend this game enough. Riftbreaker is what happens when devs are passionate about their project and willing to put in the hard work to see it through. EXOR is a model that other devs should aspire to, and Riftbreaker is a helluva fun time.
