See 100s of more local 4-player reviews at my [url=http://store.steampowered.com/curator/8485829-SvenEvils-Playground/] curator page! Simple dodgeball variant from a medieval fantasy realm... choose between 8 different heroes, play a short single player campaign with each of them - and then DUKE it OUT with your friends! Kill your foe(s) with lethal medieval weaponry, like spears, arrows, axes or spells. You have 4 different arenas…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Amazing concept. Could have been done in a great way, but the movement feels like ice levels in a platformer. You cannot change directions quickly without a bit of a slide, and the mouse movement (I assume joystick as well) feels very off. With a tweak to the movement, I might consider a purchase. For now, however, it's staying refunded.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Strikers Edge is a simple yet challenging and fun game. Perfect for some quick matches in between something else. Addicting gameplay and gorgeous pixel art graphics. Give it a try!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →online is dead and there is noticeable input lag, even offline.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The videos make the game look great, but they don't give you a sense of the laggy movement and attack controls. Everything you can do aside from the roll evade feels like walking in an ice level in old 8-bit games. I know that was said in an existing review... but I really couldn't think of a better way of wording it. If the controls were tightened up and the game was sped up just a tick, this could be a great game!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Overview Strikers Edge is a great game of killer dodge ball that supports between 1 and 4 players. The short campaigns are fun and bots can provide some solo enjoyment. The game shines when there are at least two people in an adrenaline fuelled duel to the death. Each campaign provides the back story of each character and their motivations for fighting. The pixel art is beautiful and backgrounds have easily recognizable, unique hazards. An interesting mechanic is that players can see each…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A very solid and fun party game. Essentially it's 1vs1 or 2vs2 dodge ball. It also reminds be of Pudge (Hook) Wars - custom game in Dota 2. It's not a perfect game, there might be a room for improvement in attack animations and their timings and risk-reward for using the ultimate abilities. The campaign was extremely short and not quite challenging on normal difficulty. Steam Controllers were kind of ok with this game, but the default mode for the right 'stick' doesn't feel perfect. I…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really wanted to like this game since I liked the concept but I was disappointed after playing. The Good + gameplay had so much potential (Pudge-war gameplay with different heroes) + Heroes all had unique gimmicks The Bad - single player experience/story was mediocre. (No voice acting or artwork for the campaign - just walls of text) - Online is pretty dead. - Tried playing with my SO online and the ping/latency made it unbearable - also very limited options. All in all, I would…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I keep getting crap advice replies so I'm going to go ahead and revise the review. I didn't enjoy the game. I can understand the appeal but after playing it, I didn't have any fun at all. The concept feels solid, but the gameplay and controls with a gamepad feel awful. It barely works with a steam controller. The simulated joystick drifts and seems to point down without any input on my part. The Logitech gamepad feels like there is some kind of input lag. It feels mushy and I don’t have…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Verdict: Safe skip. The price tag killed any potential the game might have had. + The music is ok The games pixel art is really nice 1v1 or 2v2 Local coop 8 characters to pick from - No steam trading cards Steam achievements are mainly for online games and they are a grind fest There are bugs (I was hit with environmental hazard before it appeared for example) The game is terrible at explaining special abilities Extremely expensive for what it does Basically no content. You will see…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →+ looks nice - clunky movement and attack controls. - input lag well playing offline -cant remap keys crawl with mouse and even keyboard controls using a ranged weapon did a far better job of the same thing 3/10 got it from 1$ bundle so
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Strikers Edge is the edgiest Medieval Dodgeball ever made. Its as simple as that. there's a ton of characters and each with its own abilities, special moves and individual story campaigns.. You can play with your mates on PC, split screen, online, teamed up or against each other, all to see who sticks that last spear in first.. You can even destroy the plebs on playstation.. 7/7 would strike the edges again.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I AM BORDERLINE ON RECOMMENDING. I can only recommend this game in good conscious to a group of people who can play with each other / against each other either online or in local couch co-op setting. Mechanically speaking, this game is fun as hell. Unfortunately, the community is dead and you'll only get queued against the same AI bot once your queue time hits a certain length. The campaign for each character is short, stale, and contains bland lore thus there isn't much content there. Overall,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Do not buy this game! Sadly while the game is fun it does not function properly with broken game modes and a dead online community.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fantastic game, it's a shame the developers have abandoned it. (Undetstandably so, you need a huge playerbase to keep a game running without any other projects.) There are a lot of bugs in the game, most you read about in others reviews. Get it on PS4 for some couch play, but stay away on PC and Online.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The concept is interesting but the basics are deeply flawed. The movement system is downright awful. Characters feel like they are skating on ice. In a game that should revolve around precision of movement this is totally unacceptable.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dear People Who'd Like to Buy this Game Please don't. The developer has not shown a single update since approx. April. There is no one online. When you set up matches with friends, the game cuts out mid match and you're stuck looking at each other. Sorry guys.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dodge-enthrall The keyboard layout displays itself helpfully at the bottom of the screen alongside the countdown for the hundredth game you've played. "Just in case you forget", it smiles (and I anthropomorphise). No one's to be lost on their umpteenth game here. It's because, like many competitive games, Strikers Edge's core arcade gameplay is actually very simple; with the potential, of course, for self-taught improvement and eventually mastery. It's at once a jump-in game - "here are the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Usualy these kind of games make me stop playing after a couple of matches, for some reason this one feels fresh every new match I make. The best thing about it is the local 1vs1 or 2vs2 because of the reaction of those playing with you. The campaign on hard's more than enough for the advanced players, It's hella punishing but it makes for a great practise partener. I'll be waiting for the ranked lader. Pretty sure I can become a pro contender once it's up ;D 5/5 worth the buy.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is really fun. If you can deal with the price for the relatively low amount of content, it is definately worth it. All the gameplay feels fluid, my main issue is the lack of content. You get a tutorial, online mode (that is unplayable at the time im writing this) a local mode, and a campaign. The campaign is really short, so unless you have some friends to sit around with and play this amazing game, i would not reccomend it. But if you do, a must have. Keep in mind, this game is…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very good game, but without online this game is pretty much pointless. Dunno why they didn't even added a Lobby/Room system to at least allow tournaments and people to play the game with friends. I just bought it to support my country, kinda over the fence to refund it. Since without online, this game as no real value.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →-Quick Review- Strikers Edge is a face paced 1v1 or 2v2 arena fighting indie game developed by Fun Punch Games and released in early 2018. -Detailed breakdown review- Story: There is a campaign and tutorial which has some world building and lore stuff, but basically it's a contrived reason to make the various characters fight each other... ...Something about you being a vessel of the "godsblood". https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1392328514 Gameplay: Movement with WASD,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great top-down dodgeball game | A+ Extremely fun online 1v1 and 2v2. Easy controls to pick up. Several medieval characters which allows you to have options to switch to when you're on a losing streak online (ง'̀-'́)ง Fantastic assortment of levels with level specific objects you'll have to learn to navigate and play around.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I was like NANI!? how can i lost in a normal first campaign IMPOSSIBLE!! I REKT THAT BEACH!!!! i god 2 and that beach got 1 round . This game is very interesting... but need improvement compare to the price
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Primarily online game - No online. Not even peer to peer. There’s a campaign but it’s just a string of quickplay games with generic fantasy text spliced in. Gameplay is uneventful and in dire need of some sort of ricochet mechanic. Waste of perfectly good spritework.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →와 개노잼 <translation> super boring
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →the game seems cool in theory, but the movement mechanics suck (ice physics) and your shots feel laggy. you're honestly better off playing pudge wars as a custom wc3 map than this game. also, i think i beat the campaign? it just kind of ends. would love to see more details in game about each character, maybe a practice mode, i dunno. feels very incomplete and uninspiring.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Striker's Edge is one of those multiplayer games that is easy to play but hard to master. A necessary recipe for any long-lasting multiplayer game. The graphics look fresh and it is surprisingly deep! Well worth a try!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Still needs some bug fixes, but overall a great game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great couch co-op game to play around with friends, the characters are fun to learn and improve and the matches can get quite intense. No problems with lag so far.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Strikers Edge is an amazing game to be played with friends. Although the game has a Campaign mode, it is best played with friends in 1v1 or 2v2 matches. I'd previously played this game at some gaming events and always had a blast with it, and the final version certainly delivers. So far my favourite Striker is probably Haru, but I still need to spend some time with some of the other characters. PROS - Great party/tournament game - Amazing art - Cool music - Easy to pickup, hard to master…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I want to like this game, but there a few things that set it back. I think the concept is great and it has a lot of potential. I like the fact that you can play locally, online, and with bots. The fighters are pretty unique and while they control the same, they each have a unique feel and move that makes it fun to mess around with (for example, the Spartan can throw his shield, etc) But the controls need some work. Every arena feels like you are sliding around on ice. You'll never be able to…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The good: > Artwork is awesome. The bad: > Game mechanics are not great. The first reason is the design of the field. The perspective might work well for certain sports games (like basketball, soccer or football) but because you have to focus on your own positioning, your projectiles, your enemies projectiles and your enemy's position, you will go cross eyed very quick or die unjustly by running into an obstacle and not being able to course correct fast enough. A top to bottom…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Follow our [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/36214917/]Curator Group for more reviews Strikers Edge is a multiplayer dodgeball game with some fighting game elements mixed in. There is a small cast of characters that all loosely play the same, but with different stats and abilities to add variety. The basic gameplay involves throwing or shooting at your opponent while dodging their attacks. Instead of 1 hit kills like normal dodgeball, you have a health bar, making it feel more like a…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good magic stuff.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Loving this game, is tons of fun when playing with others locally! Recommend for players who are looking for a BEEF Evening on a couch =)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The twitch integration is fun, and the story mode has different starting places depending on the character you choose. Overall I lost almost every game in multiplayer. It's a pitty the game doesn't have a 4-bundle discount so one could take advantage of the 4 player mode with friends. Is a fun and fast game for the price!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Don't get this stupid game, it sucks. 10/10 would cry again
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The online feature for this game was shut off a long time ago... The main appeal of this game was to play with your friends. The devs chose not to do anything about it. I chose to let other people know about it before they waste money on this
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Strikers Edge is a fast, tightly focused competitive action game that distills the thrill of dodgeball into a medieval-flavored arena brawler built around precision, mind games, and split-second reactions. Developed by Fun Punch Games and published by Dear Villagers, it embraces a minimalist philosophy where every mechanic serves the central loop of throwing, dodging, blocking, and outsmarting opponents. Rather than overwhelming players with systems or progression, it aims to create immediate,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →looks way funnier than it is. there is really not much mechanicwise to master so it feels like you know how the game will feel like for the next 10h after 10min of playing
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is not an online multiplayer game. It can't connect to the servers. I and a lot of my friends bought it so we can play with each other. It was a huge let down.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very well done graphics and mechanics that are also easy to learn. The only problem is it's a multiplayer game so don't expect many players.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Strikers Edge is a really fun game. It is a deadly dodgeball game. Instead of throwing balls, you throw spears, knifes, (shoot) arrows, etc. until the opponent is dead. You can simply throw your weapons, dodge or use your ultimate attack (each character has a unique ultimate attack). The maps are simple but nicely designed. The art-style is retro but still good-looking and the character choice is solid (8 characters). Each character has a short story (campaign). The only negative aspect…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is fun, but not worth 15$, the developer should consider a smaller price tag of like 1-2$, that way the game would maybe even have players online.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A weird fantasy lancing game with a competitive feel makes this one a bit unique to say the least, not my type but give it a go yourself!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is seriously fun! It's incredibly how fun it is once you start playing it, either Locally or Online. Personally i'm eager for Ranked to come out to give that extra adrenaline for online play. For now its practice practice practice so that when it comes out I CAN BE THE WORLD CHAMPION!!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've played the game since the beta, had been following it much much longer before. I've had the chance to meet with one of the devs before, and he's actually a great guy, and you can actually notice when you follow this game's history, this whole thing was quite the labor of love from this Portuguese team. It's a great game, even if right now it's lacking with online play due to being a recent game (I think), but trust me when I say the campaign def makes up for it. It's fast paced action will…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It might take some time to get the hang of it, but once you do, it's extremely fun and satisfying!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very simple premise and very fun game to play with friends locally or in multiplayer.

If you like my remarks about games, you can find more of them here: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/44130985-TDP%27s-Gaming-Escapades Honestly, this game is absolutely not worth it. Even on sale. I don't even know why the publisher is continuing to sell a game that some of its advertised features are not accessible anymore. The servers for the game have been shut down for a long time, and since the devs never implemented any other solution…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As much as it looks fun and the graphics are cool, it is waaaaay too hard to aim at people in this game. And I agree with a previous comment, ice physics are not only applied to the player movement but the aiming as well, makes it touuuugh, and then yeah with this much difficulty in moving, it takes way too long to kill the opponent. I tried to play campaign on normal, and granted, I kinda suck at videogames, but I couldn't even get past the first guy. The game says it's like Towerfall but…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It has a very well-crafted art style, fun mechanics, and acceptable gameplay. If it's at a good price, I would buy it without hesitation, but only if you have friends to play with.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →My son and I had some fun with this one. It reminds me of a cross between Windjammers and a fighting game. It's the perfect game to load up with someone if you just have a little time to kill and want to try something different.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →NO SEVERS/ONLINE This is primarily a PvP game, but the servers are non-functional/pulled because the game is no longer supported. Only the single player campaign and Local are functional. It really should be taken down or reduced to < 5 bucks. It's fantasy dodge-ball. It's quite a fun concept. I'll update this review if/when i get around to finishing a full 'single-player' experience, but the review will remain not-recommended.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →In local it's an incredibly fun and addicitive game. Invite a couple of friends over to play and you'll have a terrific time.
