As part of the Serious Program, play as one of several versions of Sam Stone and fight Uber Mental’s forces across fractured universes. Runs can be played solo or with up to five players in co-op.
Battle through arena encounters, defeat enemy waves and bosses, and move between shifting worlds. Use an arsenal of weapons with changing stats and effects, along with movement options such as dashing and double-jumping. Melee finishers can restore health.
Choose upgrades during each run and take on modifiers that alter how a run plays. Gold can buy gear and health during a run, while persistent resources unlock weapons, characters, and upgrades between runs; a failed run does not erase that longer-term progress.
The supplied reviews are mostly critical, though some players enjoy the fast arena fights, especially in co-op with friends. Positive reviewers also appreciate familiar enemies and weapons, experimenting with upgrades, and the added progression between runs. Critical reviews often say that slow unlocks, repetitive arenas, uneven difficulty, and technical problems get in the way of that appeal.
