I've now played this enough to leave an honest review. This is a fun meme-game, with great tongue-in-cheek humor. Reminds me of High on Life on a less-crass level.

This is a game that is best played with a squad of friends. The missions can get repetitive and mundane at times but the fun is the banter when two of you accidentally step on a mine or get overran by a horde of automatons. There is also the option to drop in with random squads, which has been positive for the most part and keeps you from having to play a game as a solo.

My fear with this game is that it will enjoy its hype, like many do, and most of its player base will go back to their main online game. The devs will defininitely need to keep it fresh to keep players coming back. A huge positive was the price. Currently, it's selling for $40 but you can find discounts to get it as low as $32. This strategy, which the quickly-popular Palworld also took, is great because I think the AAA rate of $60-$70 would prevent most from wanting to try out the game. All in all, I think it’s a good game to pickup if you worked an extra hour or two this week and have an extra few bucks in your pocket.
