When Mad Max came out I just miss it , as I avoid any game that is base on movie ... and after all first half of 2015 GTAV get out , then Witcher 3 I had fun with those , then MGSV , and after I played those , I installed Mad Max and I played few hour , and honesly I dunno why I stoped , I had some stuff to do ... and later on came out Fallout 4 , I think I need to try this game again .
just in case you ever come back to this game. I suggest you use your harpoon a LOT more. You seem to want to get out of your car every time you see people. every sniper you killed in the video you could have just harpooned(you can hit people directly with it. just aim at them, shoot it, and mouse 1 to rip them away, you dont need to drive away with them like you do to tear down buildings and walls). and once it is upgraded you can rip doors and wheels off cars while driving(and rip drivers out of the car as well) the only thing more OP than the harpoon is the rocket launcher you get pretty soon.
Criminally underrated game. Arkham level combat, top tier car combat, fantastic design. Great voice acting and direction. Even just exploring the map and grinding is fun.
@@StormhavenGaming I think the game is like 9/10 or it just plain fun looks good, and has a great progression system...sick car fighting and driving as well as soild story , but i agree i was 100 percenting the games areas bit by bit and it def got alil repetitive but if i had not soild my ps4 i would get it on pc again as i wanna finish it but i hate having to start a file over when i was like 40 percent done with the games main story and was getting all the extra bits and side objectives :( i def need to finish it as the start is slow then once you start upgrading things it gets addictive repetition lol
The artstyle of this game is absolutely phenomenal and completely overshadows every single postnuclear game I've played. Being attached to Fury Road IP you shouldnt expect anything less.
I swear, grinding in this game is somewhat tons of fun. Idk, I never enjoyed excessive grinding in open world games like the ubisoft open world games. But Mad Max....somehow always kept me wanting more.
i think it's this atmosphere and the driving. it feels unique enough to keep you going where other games don't give you interesting movement/cool reasons to keep going
Yeah, just playing as Max, driving around in your badass car, destroying anybody in the way, just feels so cool. Also, the combat feels so visceral especially after unlocking all the skills with the fury mode and all, all of it just blends together beautifully.
I love this game grinding is so fun I completed entire game twice, but if they added arena or something like that scrap collecting would be so much more fun, also it fits in the wasteland theme.
I primarily believe because it's due to the fact that almost EVERYTHING you do in this game contributes to forging the best car, making Max and the Magum Opus crazy strong towards the end. The whole game is a journey, so by the end you appreciate the beast of a car you put together.
I think it's because it feels like genuine scrounging and surviving where most of these sorts of games it's just there because...open world. It just feels more like something you HAVE to do here rather than something that's just there to give you map markers.
I've played through this game probably 5 or 6 times. Absolutely one of the best open world games. I also really liked the story, felt very Mad Max and not like something pretending to be Mad Max. It was simple but effective, with a bitter ending that put Max right back to where he was at the start. Also I feel like the best way to play is to only get a few of the fuel upgrades, so you constantly have to actually scavenge for fuel. You get all of the upgrades and suddenly you never have to worry about fuel again, which kinda takes away from the experience.
Ha, I did the same thing! Until I unlocked the Interceptor, at which point it was the only thing worth driving and that thing guzzles fuel like crazy, so you actually have to scavenge for it just like in the movie.
Mad Max is bloody awesome. Underrated game I feel like because during 2015 people were saying it was too long which it wasnt. The Fallout 4 hype must of overshadowed this game. I loved every minute and hour I played with this game and Good news too that the movies are back up and running after their court cases and whatnot. Hopefully we can get another Mad Max game again in the future too. Looking forward to the vid Jayvee. Awesome content
totally! i forgot that fallout 4 came out right around the same time. i think there's been reports of a mad max 2 recently but who knows! thanks for watching James :)
People were really sick of everything trying open world (and mostly with underwhelming results) combined with the fact that people assumed in was a tie-in game for Fury Road (which it certainly wasn't) that doomed this game
@@jayveeeee yeah it was crazy hype back then for Fallout 4 and I saw Mad Max in store back in 2015 and I didnt know what to think of it and then I played it and I was having a blast. Even the combat felt similar to when you play the Batman Arkham games, I dont know if that's because of WB involvement with Avalanche but I definitely felt that. Not to mention the big open world, the need to look for Gas in an apocalypse games is awesome with those few touches. Also ol chum is the GOAT. Man I hope those reports are right because I'll be doing everything down to the bone in that game no doubt. In your spare time a good game suggestion to check out is the Judgment games by Sega if you havent played them yet. You will not be disappointed. Thanks man and take care
@@adammilne1341 yeah it wasnt a tie in it was set before Fury Road I think but I think they wanted to coincide with the films release seeing that's the first video game and a new movie since the last ones
I think this and last year lot of good games are not releasing so people are playing underrated games which they didn't played back in the day. I also think lot of youtubers are making documentary type videos of underrated games which is bringing eyes to them. For me kane and Lynch, manhunt and suffering were most underrated games but suddenly lot of people are making videos on it which got millions of views views
I definitely love that pretty much all the loot has to be TAKEN in true mad max form. Everything has been scavenged or inhabited. If people didn’t live to come back to their stash, then their stash might remain. But good things aren’t just lying around.
I LOVE Mad Max, and I’m currently playing Rage 2 for the first time, and I fail to see why the critical and commercial reception was so “MEH”. Mad Max was awesome, and Rage 2 is basically what Mad Max would be like if it was a FPS.
@@dizzyupthefool5180 Rage 2 was vibrant it had more life in it than the 1st. Even though 1 was still good and the graphics for 1 during that time were unbeatable
The atmosphere is great. In the night with some lights in the distance, it is like a surreal experience. And graphics are nearly photo-real when Driving, but suffering in close when on foot tho.
"Crunchy combat" - jayvee Weird how overlooked this game has been. I finally got around to playing Mad Max like last year and it's definitely one of those enjoyable underrated games. I think the melee is really what made me fall in love with it. The visual flash and the audio really give that "impact" for hits and collisions, with vehicles as well.
The only bad thing I can say about this game is "story", but the gameplay itself was so satisfying I didn't much care. Playing this was the closest I came to a completionist run of any modern game. Excellent, visceral sound design and the combat either in car or on foot is just an all around blast. The game world, even though sparsely populated was so gorgeous I wanted to explore all of it(except the dunes, that was a slog).
Two things about this game: 1- It doesn't have a soundtrack, but it's so good that you don't even notice it; 2- If you press the up arrow twice inside the car you drive in first person (I only discovered this when I finished the game).
One of the few games I 100%'ed. Fun to grind, really rare. If you like this, give Rage 2 a try. The intro is a bit weak, but when you find basic powers etc. turns out to be a really fun game.
It's a fantastic game with absolutely brutal combat! The driving is fun and you really feel like you're making Max more Mad, and more awesome as you go on! Very glad that you're playing it!! :)
Probably one of the best "Soft" Ubi games. Simple but satisfying combat, large map with surprising variety considering it's exclusively desert wasteland, fun vehicle combat and a good sense of progression trough the game, the story is simple and meandering but fun enough and surprisingly well written and character focused, Chumbucket is a delight and unironically one of my favourite NPCs in the previous console generation. It can get really repetitive, especially considering clearing the map of objectives is a requirement for the best upgrades so nothing is exactly "optonal" but the moment to moment gameplay is varied and fun enough to make up for the otherwise repetitive objectives. It's a good game if you like to roam around a map causing chaos (I know I sure do) but won't change anyone's mind if they are already primed against open world "checklist" Soft Ubi games.
I was never into Fallout so I was way more interested in this game than most I feel when it first came out. I was into Fury Road a lot so I was just wanting some mindless fun in the Wasteland but this game has no right being THIS good. I was blown away by the detail and actual effort that went into a game most probably would think is a quick cheap movie tie in product. Why they chose to release it the SAME DAY as Fallout 4 I’ll never understand, it would’ve gotten good reception if people actually knew about it and just made it seem like the company didn’t have much faith in it which is a shame
All I will add is. You can use the harpoon on enemies on the ground. You can than drag them behind you. Than hit harpoon button and they fly off. And the War Crier can be shoot with your sniper rifle from the car if you can see it. Or your shotgun. He will glow, if I remember right, and he will blow up! Such a great game. Simple fighting but has very Arkham style for sure. Would love to see you play more!
watched the very first movie a few nights ago and found out that I've actually been to the town at the start of the movie irl DOZENS of times AND I've done a lot of my driving lessons on the exact roads they filmed some of the other scenes on. I feel like I sinned not seeing the movie sooner, moving on to the second movie tomorrow!!
You are about to watch arguably the best one outta all of them. And one of the best low budget films of all time. This game pulls inspiration mainly from Road warrior and fury road and the comics. Excited for u man have fun watching
i loved completing every single task in strongholds, searching for project parts too. the driving model and feeling of making my car stronger was fantastic, every next engine ive unlocked had an amazing sound and it was so superb to hear pure power. overall the game is awesome, but the story is a little bit too short, for me 9,5/10
This was the only game in recent memory that I actually got all the scrap locations. It was fun to hunt around for them and see how empty yet full of life the world is. Very underrated game and in my top 5 favs of all time
Enjoyed it more than the reviews did. I still have fun replaying it once or twice a year. Wish they came out with a sequel. Could’ve improved the minor issues people had with the first game.
I bought it day one on PS4 back then but I couldn't take the 30fps gameplay so I stopped playing. I got recently a Xbox Series X and OMG this game runs up 120fps on boost mode with auto HDR looks fantastic!
If you think Allies in camps giving you scraps is cool you’ll probably be mind blown to know there are Allie faction strongholds that will give you scraps WHILE THE GAME IS OFF. Like you’ll load back into the game and it’ll pop up like “Strongholds have collected 800 scrap”
I remember this game and Metal Gear Solid V came out the same day. I got Metal Gear Solid, and man, was I disappointed. I picked up Mad Max a few months later at a huge discount, and I absolutely loved it!
Eagerly waiting for a sequel to this game. I absolutely loved it back in the day when it came out. One of those rare movie based games that is actually very good.
This, in my opinion, is one of the most underrated games ever made. The wasteland is what it should be. Combat is visceral and impactful. Driving is weighty without feeling slow or sluggish. Car combat is fantastic. Vehicles blow up in spectacular fashion. Just everything about it is so well done.
I’m so glad to see the love for this game. It’s just so good. The hand-to-hand combat is the best I’ve ever played. So much atmosphere. Absolutely fantastic voice acting. And that’s just the beginning.
I remember the first time I played this. The bleak, hopeless and wild landscapes with the savagery of the world left me feeling very peaceful. Just me, my car and my thoughts.
I hate to use the term “ Ahead if it’s time “ usually but for this game I always made the exception, imo mad max still has one of the most unique open world dynamics even today. Shame that it more or less got eclipsed by fallout 4 and Arkham Knight back in 2015.
This game is an amazing, epic Mad Max game and I replay it every year or so. Everything is so satisfying....melee combat, car combat and explosion physics, the story and environments....Everything is just masterfully done. A classic.
Man, I absolutely adore this game. Severely flawed in a lot of ways, but the one thing it set out to do, the car combat and driving, is absolutely PERFECT. Cruising around the world and busting shit up is just so purely satisfying, and it made for one of the best “pick up and play” sandboxes of its gen. IMO it’s the epitome of a flawed masterpiece. Super underrated game.
I really enjoyed it when I played it years ago and everyone I've ever recommended to loved it. It's definitely repetitive and a major component of the game is just picking up scrap, but I found the game soooo satisfying. The driving battles are terrific and I found the hand to hand combat well done. I really don't know why it was only given average reviews upon its release.
The only bad thing about this game is the sheer amount of mind numbing copy pasted busywork in each zone. Everything else was great about it, and when you fully upgraded your car you felt like a god
Played this game a long while ago when I was still in high-school and really enjoyed it, now fresh outta my film degree and actually working with Mad Max's voice actor as a runner in his debut feature film! Life is weird.
One of my all time favourites, this game is a blast. Button Mashing, Good gameplay mechanics, Simple and easy to jump into, Open world that is interesting to explore, Decent Progression, Atmosphere, Art Style. The list can go on.
Definitely underrated as others say, but I also understand why : it's repetitive, the map is huge with not many things to do, it tends to drag on near the end, and when it came out it felt like a dumbed down Arkham combat system ( yet it's brutal and you can really feel the weight of the attacks, and the weapon sounds are loud and satisfying ). It's still the best desert open world I've seen.
This game IS related to Fury Road. The main villain of the game is the son of Immortan Joe, the bad guy from the movie. This takes place after the events of the film.
This game is awesome! The sense of progression is amazing and I love that despite everything happening in a deserted wasteland, the map is beautiful in a certain way and each region has it's own personality. It's a shame it came out exactly the same day as Metal Gear Solid V, this game deserved more love
The term you were looking for to describe the aesthetic of Mad Max is Diesel Punk. Movies like Mad Max and Water World were trend setters for the aesthetic.
First game I played when I bought my Xbox one, so many good memories. Swear it kept me out of trouble. A silly thing to say about a video game but sometimes you don't want to go out, you'd rather just stay in and relax with a fun game
This game was so awesome the first time I played it. The first time I came over that hill and saw that big ass tanker ship (Chum’s hideout), Gastown on the horizon and the huge desertscape I knew it was gonna be a good time. Wish it did better initially to get a sequel
One of the best hand to hand combat games imo. At least one of the best that i've played. And the game is just fun to drive around and cause chaos. However it does feel kinda empty. But i guess thats just the world of mad max
Underrated AF! I bought it in 2019 then I dunno why I sold it after 1 week & I regret it, I bought it again still in 2019, took my time with the game, be patient & realise how great, fun & simple this game is, I LOVE IT!

I don't know why I never finished it. Probably because it was too repetitive for me
@@Skitz0frenix No more repetitive than many games, and a lot less repetitive than some. And the story more than makes up for it.
There's something chasing trucks in a desert storm fighting multiple vehicle makes you feel badass.
great game. I love playing through it, but eveytime I do I install another game at the same time to break up the monotony.

The artstyle of this game is absolutely phenomenal and completely overshadows every single postnuclear game I've played. Being attached to Fury Road IP you shouldnt expect anything less.
I was really impressed with the writing and voice-acting, too. The developers genuinely did the source material proud.

Problem is, its one dimensional. And theres only so fuch you can do with the combat. So it gets repetitive quickly
Combat never got stale, shotgun felt epic, characters were solid, art and sound were great, open world and driving were fresh... Just a class game.
I'm so happy to see more and more people experience this truly underrated gem
Tomorrow I going to buy this game
@@Miguelreyes-wi6ib so you like it?
@@Miguelreyes-wi6ib how was it bro
@@Agus-pe9wwIt’s worth it. I played it when first came out and spent so much time exploring and upgrading my car and just having a blast
This game was criminally underrated
Maybe not anymore, people are now waking up to how rad it is
Plus The Witcher 3 AND Fallout 4 the same year!
I think this and last year lot of good games are not releasing so people are playing underrated games which they didn't played back in the day. I also think lot of youtubers are making documentary type videos of underrated games which is bringing eyes to them.

I love how there literally almost no loot and how empty this world is. It’s wants me to explore more to see this empty but also rewarding wasteland
There is loot/scrap/boxes, cars zooming around, convoys, desert ppl, things to do LITERALLY everywhere in the game.
There is a lot of looting but it's not really mandatory
I definitely love that pretty much all the loot has to be TAKEN in true mad max form. Everything has been scavenged or inhabited. If people didn’t live to come back to their stash, then their stash might remain. But good things aren’t just lying around.

"Crunchy combat" - jayvee
Weird how overlooked this game has been.
I finally got around to playing Mad Max like last year and it's definitely one of those enjoyable underrated games.
I think the melee is really what made me fall in love with it.

Lol didn't know about first person
This was such an underrated game! Fun car gameplay and really well optimized PC port made it one of my favorite games.
One of the best, most overlooked, best performing games in recent memory. I absolutely love this game. Gutted didn't get a sequel.
This game was vastly underrated. I wish they would come out with a part 2 and add some music in the gameplay.
I've also heard people talk about this one a lot but I never got around to it. Now it is definitely going higher on my to do list, this looks awesome!
I love that Jay's reaction is the same as everyone else's, "Holy crap, this isn't a cheap cash in! There's an actual game here!"
Javeey: “this guy looks like he’s gonna sell me drugs”
Immediately gets YT Ad: “get a notification when your prescriptions are ready at the pharmacy”
I liked the combat way more than in the Batman games
It just feels so heavy and meaty, I love it
Very nostalgic. When I got around to this game maybe 2017 or 18, I remember it being my favorite game I played that year. So well done.
One of the few games I 100%'ed. Fun to grind, really rare. If you like this, give Rage 2 a try. The intro is a bit weak, but when you find basic powers etc. turns out to be a really fun game.
It's a fantastic game with absolutely brutal combat! The driving is fun and you really feel like you're making Max more Mad, and more awesome as you go on! Very glad that you're playing it!! :)
This is one of the few games where it's fun just driving around for no real reason. It looks amazing and the cars feel weighty and grungy.
Probably one of the best "Soft" Ubi games.
Simple but satisfying combat, large map with surprising variety considering it's exclusively desert wasteland, fun vehicle combat and a good sense of progression trough the game, the story is simple and meandering but fun enough and surprisingly well written and character focused, Chumbucket is a delight and unironically one of my favourite NPCs in the previous console generation.

Watching the epic sandstorm coming over the mountain towards you is such a spectacle. Amazing game
This was the only game in recent memory that I actually got all the scrap locations. It was fun to hunt around for them and see how empty yet full of life the world is. Very underrated game and in my top 5 favs of all time
This is an underrated gem. Only played for a few hours but its much better than Ubisofts crap. Gotta beat this .
Glad you and gamerax are covering this game
Love the atmosphere on this one
it's a gem and so underrated for sure
I played this game when it came out and I’ve replayed it so many times since then. One of my favorite open world games.
i love the fire, smoke and particles of this game
Criminally underrated! Especially as a massive Fallout fan, it scratched the post apocalyptic itch that 76 doesn’t.
Enjoyed it more than the reviews did. I still have fun replaying it once or twice a year. Wish they came out with a sequel. Could’ve improved the minor issues people had with the first game.

I remember this game and Metal Gear Solid V came out the same day. I got Metal Gear Solid, and man, was I disappointed. I picked up Mad Max a few months later at a huge discount, and I absolutely loved it!
This game is an absolute masterpiece imo the story was actually mad Max style no happy endings and it truly focuses on that wasteland survival theme
Eagerly waiting for a sequel to this game. I absolutely loved it back in the day when it came out. One of those rare movie based games that is actually very good.
A really cool Easter egg to Australia at 9:57 there’s the map of Australia on the wall in the background
Such a bloody good game the combat felt so beefy and satisfying and the car mechanics were top tier
I bought this game last year during the Holiday sale for $4.99. Best $5 I ever spent.
glad to see you play this game. it’s definitely one of my all time favs
Absolutely loved this game. Driving and combat are amongst the best of games but story us unluckily a little luster and short
Very fun. Very underrated. I think why it was so overlooked is because it was released the same day as Metal Gear: Phantom Pain.
this game was Massively slept on, I'm glad to see it finally getting some recognition.
This game absolutely slaps, its worth experiencing but especially so if you’re a mad max fan
This, in my opinion, is one of the most underrated games ever made. The wasteland is what it should be. Combat is visceral and impactful. Driving is weighty without feeling slow or sluggish. Car combat is fantastic. Vehicles blow up in spectacular fashion. Just everything about it is so well done.
Very underrated game. I've finished it twice, and though a bit repetitive, it's fun as hell!
7/10!
I’m so glad to see the love for this game. It’s just so good. The hand-to-hand combat is the best I’ve ever played. So much atmosphere. Absolutely fantastic voice acting. And that’s just the beginning.
I remember the first time I played this. The bleak, hopeless and wild landscapes with the savagery of the world left me feeling very peaceful. Just me, my car and my thoughts.
I hate to use the term “ Ahead if it’s time “ usually but for this game I always made the exception, imo mad max still has one of the most unique open world dynamics even today. Shame that it more or less got eclipsed by fallout 4 and Arkham Knight back in 2015.
Glad I didnt sleep on this game in 2015. Super underrated and its crazy to see so many people just wake up in the last few years lmao
and still looks pretty good for a game that came out 9 years ago
Yeah I picked it up for like $5 a little bit ago and I'm loving it, well over 50 hrs playing it so far
This game is an amazing, epic Mad Max game and I replay it every year or so. Everything is so satisfying....melee combat, car combat and explosion physics, the story and environments....Everything is just masterfully done. A classic.
Yea I just finished this game about a month ago... I really enjoyed it.. Story, Mechanics and gameplay top notch
this is one of the few games i have finished multiple times, just awesome
22:18 ”Wonderfully chaotic” is a perfect description of this game.
Man, I absolutely adore this game. Severely flawed in a lot of ways, but the one thing it set out to do, the car combat and driving, is absolutely PERFECT. Cruising around the world and busting shit up is just so purely satisfying, and it made for one of the best “pick up and play” sandboxes of its gen. IMO it’s the epitome of a flawed masterpiece. Super underrated game.
LOVE seeing people discover gems
By far the best melee combat I've ever played. And they've combined it beautiful with the usage of your shotgun. Just everything feels right.
I adore this game, one of my favorites of all time. Definitely deserves a sequel!!
Just finished this game completely looting and comepleting onjectives and side quests. Very very fun to play
I really enjoyed it when I played it years ago and everyone I've ever recommended to loved it. It's definitely repetitive and a major component of the game is just picking up scrap, but I found the game soooo satisfying. The driving battles are terrific and I found the hand to hand combat well done. I really don't know why it was only given average reviews upon its release.
The only bad thing about this game is the sheer amount of mind numbing copy pasted busywork in each zone. Everything else was great about it, and when you fully upgraded your car you felt like a god
Played this game a long while ago when I was still in high-school and really enjoyed it, now fresh outta my film degree and actually working with Mad Max's voice actor as a runner in his debut feature film! Life is weird.
Mad max is one of those games that would deserve a living mod community... oh the lost potential
One of my all time favourites, this game is a blast. Button Mashing, Good gameplay mechanics, Simple and easy to jump into, Open world that is interesting to explore, Decent Progression, Atmosphere, Art Style. The list can go on.
i 100% completed this game ... i love it
The sound effects in this game were sick.
He loved the engine noises and that was just the V6!
The V8 is awesome
I don’t care what anyone says, I view this game as canon, especially after Furiosa.
Definitely underrated as others say, but I also understand why : it's repetitive, the map is huge with not many things to do, it tends to drag on near the end, and when it came out it felt like a dumbed down Arkham combat system ( yet it's brutal and you can really feel the weight of the attacks, and the weapon sounds are loud and satisfying ).
It's still the best desert open world I've seen.
Lol this is Shadow of Mordor with a Mad Max skin over it lol. That's a game you should definitely play if you haven't, it's phenomenal.
Nobody believed me when I said this was one of the best open world games that came out that year. So good.
I’m replaying it now and I forgot how good this game was heavily underrated imo
I remember getting this game as soon as it came out, felt like such a badass doing stunts with your car and blowing up bandits was so cinematic
This game IS related to Fury Road. The main villain of the game is the son of Immortan Joe, the bad guy from the movie. This takes place after the events of the film.
This game is awesome! The sense of progression is amazing and I love that despite everything happening in a deserted wasteland, the map is beautiful in a certain way and each region has it's own personality. It's a shame it came out exactly the same day as Metal Gear Solid V, this game deserved more love
I love this game. It was a blast fully completing it.
The game is such a hidden gem lol I’m so glad that people years later are seeing that now lol
Lovin it on Series X. The fps boost makes it even better!
Pulling drivers out of cars with the harpoon, and one-shotting the gas tanks with the shotgun are awesome.
The term you were looking for to describe the aesthetic of Mad Max is Diesel Punk. Movies like Mad Max and Water World were trend setters for the aesthetic.
I love this game, so incredibly immersive. One of my favorites in the past ten years.
First game I played when I bought my Xbox one, so many good memories. Swear it kept me out of trouble. A silly thing to say about a video game but sometimes you don't want to go out, you'd rather just stay in and relax with a fun game
This game was so awesome the first time I played it. The first time I came over that hill and saw that big ass tanker ship (Chum’s hideout), Gastown on the horizon and the huge desertscape I knew it was gonna be a good time. Wish it did better initially to get a sequel
I’m glad this game is finally starting to get the credence it deserve.
I love how true this game is to the mad max lore.
This is one of my all time favorite games,I grew up with this game it soooooooo awesome!!! (love your content keep up the great work)
One of the best hand to hand combat games imo. At least one of the best that i've played. And the game is just fun to drive around and cause chaos. However it does feel kinda empty. But i guess thats just the world of mad max
Hey man have you played sleeping dogs ? The hand to hand combat is badass too 🔥
Mad Max, ce jeu est tellement bon ! Et sous côté, j’ai adoré ce jeu et j’ai fait les 100%. Il est top, merci de donner un peu de visibilité au jeu 😎
Underrated AF! I bought it in 2019 then I dunno why I sold it after 1 week & I regret it, I bought it again still in 2019, took my time with the game, be patient & realise how great, fun & simple this game is, I LOVE IT!
It’s such a sick game, played it for 50 hours after randomly buying it on a steam sale. Awesome, highly recommended
