I tried the original Door Kickers and it was okay but I didn't sink a lot of time into it. Door Kickers 2 I can barely put down. It really feels like the devs played their game a lot. Excellent fun.

I passed on this game before a recent change to the store page, and I'm sad that I did. It's a really complex game that involves a lot of self discovery. It is probably not for everyone, but for those who love a complex game with a lot going on it's a great buy.

The development process and communication has also been really great, with lots of interaction both on steam and on discord. The updates are regular and contain a lot of fixes as well as more content. I can see myself coming back to the game a lot.

I reviewed negatively when it was announced a PlayStation account would be required. Now that decision has been reversed.

It is an excellent game and the developer is amazing. I'm glad PlayStation has reversed their decision, and acknowledged they are still learning about the PC market.

I hope others will edit their review as well. It is a quality game and it is good to know it will not be ruined by poor publisher decisions.

this is the worst thing to ever happen to me

Its a good idea and it has some good mechanics; however I think in being so broad it has missed implementation it needs.

There are numerous collision and physics issues. Hitting a pedestrian causes a vehicle to stop completely. Vehicle collision with the world is not great and very erratic. I would have chosen Unreal for this kind of project, I just don't think Unity is well suited for this and it shows.

I will check the game out again in future, but for now I would say its really more of a tech demo than a game.

Ridden with bugs, so much that even if this was an early access game I would consider it far too buggy. Constant crashes, weird glitches. Gameplay was extremely basic. Content was... weirdly basic. There is only a single sound cue for getting hurt which sounds like an italian man shouting "eyyyyyy!". When you go to break a door, you have to look at points in the door to break that. Fair enough; but when you click the button to start the action your character animation moves you and you go off the point.

One of the worst games on steam I've played.

An action game masquerading as a survival game.

• The movement is fun, jumping from tree to tree or vine to vine
  
• The jungle is immersive and looks beautiful
  
• The audio is very immersive

• it's action oriented; its more about remembering which key/button to press, at the right time and in the right way
  
• Because it's so action/puzzle oriented I ended up confused most of the time with what do to. I didn't get to make a choice, I had to figure out how to do their choice.
  
• Just wasn't very fun, essentially just "stumble onto the answer" simulator.

The game is really a masterclass in frustration. In the time I played it it felt like I was supposed to solve a puzzle but I sort of ended up not caring about any of it.

thanks, i hate it

An enjoyable experience in cooperative play; although with a terrible storyline that really doesn't add to the game.

• Reasonably polished
  
• Enjoyable; with the right amount of challenge
  
• Consistent art style

• The story is the worst I can remember in a video game
  
• Fairly brief (8 hours for me and a friend to complete)
  
• Once you complete a level, I don't think you really want to do it again

It's an enjoyable game and I'd recommend it. Reasonably well priced for what you get. Looking forward to the delivery of the level editor, that will add a lot to the game. What I would change would be ditching the story. While it did give us a few giggles, it feels like it is really forced on the player. It adds nothing to the game and is very cringeworthy.

Easily the most interesting game I have played in a long time.

• Extremely unique experience, never played anything like it.
  
• Pulls you into the roleplay without effort, the game loop you can't help but get attached to your parents
  
• You really are dependent on your parents
  
• Survival is hard. The world is tough.

• Honestly, makes you realize your parents, your friends, everyone you know... is going to die. Worst case scenario, all those before and after die... and you will die alone in the wilderness utterly spent...
  
• The crafting is kind of tedious, so you can't really get much done in one life
  
• You can only hold one thing in your hands, which is really annoying and frustraiting given how hard the crafting is
  
• In-game information screen is.... not amazing. End up using the wiki, which would be very problematic if you dont have two monitors and run it in borderless.
