    I'd like to warn my fellow Australian gamers NOT TO BUY this game as it does not have local servers. Playing as demon is impossible in Australia since the demon is the host and the host needs to have the best latency. Believe me, I left the game searching for a game as demon for an HOUR but I could not find a game. You basically don't get to play half the game you payed 60A$ for.

    While the skill-tree progression is interesting there's nothing beyond a few hours content in this. It's just another bog-standard 4v1 with nothing to offer other than level-grinding.

    Charging £32 for this in the UK is as close to legal theft as you're ever to see. Matchmaking is non-existant, it just pulls randoms together regardless of player level. Some serious bugs with it

    Some serious bugs with it too, I can't play fullscreen as my monitor resolution isn't a predefined preset in the options. It gets stretched beyond the display boundary.

    As a die hard fan of the franchise I really wanted to like this game but it's so bad. It's a piece of crap covered in flowers.
    Pros: Graphics
    Cons: Literally everything else. - Gameplay is horrible. Dodging is so easy to abuse and finishers are basically used for the sole purpose of not taking damage during it's animation. - So many bugs, lags, connection problems - Balancing is

    - Gameplay is horrible. Dodging is so easy to abuse and finishers are basically used for the sole purpose of not taking damage during it's animation.
    - So many bugs, lags, connection problems
    - Balancing is literally non-existent. Survivors are provided with a skill tree that can turn them into literal gods while demons have a skill tree that make them barely any better to play.
    - RNG is god awful. It shouldn't be possible for the three pieces of the map to be located right next to each other. It also shouldn't be possible for the dagger and the pages to spawn right next to each other as well. This happens literally every time even in the biggest map of the game like huh?
    - There are only 2 maps in the game and on the bigger map is way too hard to play as the demon. There are not enough orbs and they're placed way too far apart, and mixed with RNG stated above it makes things so much worse.
    - Gameplay is far too repetitive.
    - Epic Games exclusive... like why?
    Overall as much as I would like to say this game has potential, it doesn't. The gameplay is just far too repetitive and boring that even if they fixed it (if it ever gets to that point) everyone will stop playing it in like a week at most.

    Constant losses due to weak teammates do not bring any pleasure, and all because the developers do not want to add matchmaking, they generally do not care about their own player base.

    The game was cool only in the first month, it hooked me with a complex and multifunctional gameplay. But then the developers began to balance the game for weak players, because of which the main features were removed from it: Early game, animation cancellation, combos and much more... The game ceased to be interesting and not worth the money.

Most players want to pay as the survivor characters and the whinging that the demon was too hard made Saber nerf the demon to the point of it being paper thin. So now, no one wants to play the demon. In a 4v1 game if the "1" isn't being played by anyone then you sit around in the lobby for up to an hour for a game. When a demon player does come along, they quit because they see the hugely overpowered and now upgraded survivor players and just leave. They then have to sit for a 5 min cool down period and usually will drift off and play something else while that team of 4 sit and hope the next demon won't quit. This was made all the worse when they gave the game away for free to PC players. This is a cross platform game which is now full of PC gamers who just leave, quit or cheat. Again, it doesn't make for a fun experience. Saber were told several times on the FB group that what they were doing was wrong but they made the changes and now there is no way back. It was the nail in the coffin when they made the last buffs all for the survivors as it meant most Demon players had had enough. All because the 4 in the 4v1 cried too loud that they were getting beaten and not playing as a team. When it worked it was a fun game but it needed a more robust dev team who wouldn't give in to the crying toxic players who weren't winning every match. A real shame but I hope that one day a decent dev will make something of the franchise. Expand

    The game is pretty, the music is very nice and it was fun until a META was established and the demon feels useless against any team playing properly.

    - if you use borderless window and have a 16:9 resolution you see your desktop on the left and right instead of black bars when playing on a 21:9 monitor.

    Now gameplay. If you're a coop guy or solo and want to level your characters, you're out of luck. You DON'T get any XP when playing Coop vs AI or Solo vs AI, making half of the game not fun. Not everyone wants to play pvp and with even giving thei options to play coop you stil decide disabling xp gain in these modes.

    Buggy as hell:
    My very first online match (coop vs ai) I glitched inside a cupboard while evading and was stuck so I had to leave the match.
    My second online match my character stopped responding to my inputs. Pressing attack, aming, heavy attack the character just had a spastic seizure and constantly said "need to reload" "need to reload" "need to reload". Couldn't interact with anything and became useless to the group resulting into leaving yet again the match.

    Don't buy this game until they fixed these issues.

    Haven't tried pvp yet but what I heard demons seem to be OP stunlocking you so you can't do ****

    Looking at this game as someone who has zero interest or knowledge of the franchise. The balancing in multiplayer is a joke. In my experience survivors that just huddle together and watch every direction practically cannot lose against the demon. Stacking melee characters with high damage and health, with the healer is laughably simple. Takes far too long to collect energy as the demon to even attack them until mid to late game. At which point survivors have higher tier weapons to combat you anyway.

    Also people keep comparing this game to Dead By Daylight. STOP. ITS NOT. Absolutely nothing like DBD except that its 4v1. Its extremely similar to Resident Evil Resistance. Another failed horribly balanced and boring game.

I had one game where everyone was out for themselves. That wasn't a good experience, but afterwards I got a team who was really sticking together and man it just made it so much more fun. I highly recommend making an organized group if you are intent on winning. If not, then playing with randoms is no big deal. I do it and win still.

    I did have a one bug where I can't move, but none other than that. And only once in about 20ish something games played.

    Alright you Primitive Screwheads, listen up! You see this? This... is my BOOMSTICK!

    Mixing together the films and the television series, Sam Raimi’s universe comes alive in a new entry into the asymmetric horror games. Four players pick from a pool of characters with different abilities and hero classes, while one player controls a demon class.

    The heroes work together exploring the map, finding weapons, supplies, and focusing on the primary objectives to achieve victory; Finding three parts of a map, retrieving the Kandarian Dagger and the lost pages of the Necronomicon, defeating the Dark Ones, then one last stand defending the restored Necronomicon.

    The demon controls the very evil seen in the franchise. The creepy presence traveling through the woods destroying everything in its path, possessing people and summoning unnatural entities to prevent the heroes from banishing you.

    This was an immediate purchase for me after watching a couple streamers play it. I only needed to see two things. Bruce Campbell and Evil Ash. Army of Darkness has always been one of my favorite movies and this game allowed me to enjoy that in a new way.
    Outside of the main player vs player mode the game does offer a single player experience through a set of story missions. They serve as a nice dive into the game systems leading into the main core of the game. Each unlocks a part of the backstory of Evil Dead and a new hero to use. Oddly very challenging. They offer no check points through the mission and they can easily take up to 30-40 mins to complete. One fatal mistake at the end will cost you a fresh restart. Ouch.

    What this game does well is the ambience of The Evil Dead. Puns, lines right from the movie, characters, demons, jump scares and a feeling of terror. It bundles it all into a 30 minute or less multiplayer match.

    My main concern lies with the longevity of the game's health over time. Finishing a match grants you two different experience points. One for the character you played and one free bank to use on any character. But outside of just playing a match to level up there aren't any other player/demon goals for you to focus on. Personally I enjoy a game more when I have my own personal goals to work on while also playing.

    For example, another asymmetric horror game, Dead by Daylight has a system in place that gives you choices of goals to work on while playing a match. It just adds a bit more to a game that scratches a good part of my brain.
    There is still time for Evil Dead to implement new systems or fun things for players. Recently it was announced by the developers that a free dlc will be coming in the summer with a new map themed around Army of Darkness.

    Нет поиска по уровням и выбора ролей заранее, в итоге ты либо доминируешь как бог, либо сосешь. Уже хэвить фан не получается.

    You will never play as surviviour beacuse noone plays demon and everyone plays surv. That means that you'll have to wait 1000 minutes to join the session. The demons are terribly weak and the survs are overpowered. The balance is complete trash. Don't buy this game unless you want to ruin your gaming expirience. 0/10. The worst 15 usd spent in my life.

    Admittedly my group of gaming friends didn't want to partake in this game. I know! How lame, if I could review them I'd give them a 3 out of 10 but as it is here. Playing 'alone' with randos I can't give this one more then a 6. It's a pretty fun game actually, well put together and very fun to be apart of the world for an Evil Dead fan.

It's a pretty fun game actually, well put together and very fun to be apart of the world for an Evil Dead fan. They obviously knew and cared about the world and lore when making this. I feel like it's fun enough and put together well enough to potentially have gotten a higher score but my experience with it couldn't raise it any. There were some technical issues and horrid people to play with of course. Cause we all know that people suck! Not you or me of course! But, you know, people. Others, that are never us but some how beings that exist that just suck to play with.
    The reason that most randos exist, is because they suck! Or are poopy people, they're stink masters and none of they're friends want to play with them or play the game that they're wanting to play. So they go into online gaming alone playing with other people that are in a similar situation. WAIT, what?! Oh no!! No! Not me! NOT ME TOO!! NO!!!! I promise, I'm no Rando! I... I... WHO AM I?! What have I become? I promise, I'm no rando but I did happen to play alone and randomly with other people who ARE randos. But not me! My mom didn't raise me to be no random person to play Evil Dead The Game with. No! She raised me right. OR DID SHE!? NEVER KNOW! OR DO YOU?

    Anywho... It would be a fun weekend with some friends, a fun couple hours alone... But in either case probably not worth a whole lot of time more than that. If it wasn't Evil Dead it would've gotten a lower score without friends. But it was fun getting back into this world in this way. Don't buy it, unless on a deep deep sale. Or, like I said before if you have a group of friends that are dedicated to putting enough time into it to make it worth it. Even with that, not worth more then $15. GOOD DAY TO YOU!

    Nice setting and fun for a few hours - go a little deeper and witness a stun lock sh*t show at its best - unbalanced AF.

    This game is cashgrab and pay to win! Servers are bad, new updates are only for money and adds only pay to win characters and demon!

    Picked it up at a giveaway in Epic Games. And I can say that I would not pay for this game.
    The graphics in this game are not bad. And there are many character.
    But the optimization here is terrible. It has a lot of bugs. The shooting here is poorly.
    To play a few evenings with friends is not bad, but no more. And I wouldn't play it myself.

    Hilariously bad implementation of an iconic IP. All they had to do is use the IP created by people who are more creative and intelligent and not make it suck by implementing bad gameplay... and they failed.

Hilariously bad decision making when it comes to basic "what is fun?" gameplay decisions that you have to assume every developer involved is a massive failure in every other area of life. Why not use anti-cheat? Why not use a "report a player" for cheating feature? Why make overpowered abilities and utterly uselss abilities exist in the same system? Why make it so difficult to give the devlopers feedback? The only thing they got right is...

    See above: stuff other more creative, intelligent people already made.

    Oh well! On to the next failure for Saber!

    this game does not have the humour or the charm of what the 3 movies had and that disappointed me a lot

    The game is insanely hard for no reason and the fact you can't change difficulty setting is insane. Not everyone wants a game that just destroys you off the bat and some would like it easier. No wonder they give this away for free.

    Evil Dead: The Game is clunky but loveable. It's a very good movie-to-video game adaptation, and it's likely as close as we're going to get to a proper and decent "Evil Dead" video game. I had a good deal of fun with it, both as a fan of the movies and as a gamer. It twists a familiar game concept just enough and bolsters it with additional mechanics so that it feels fresh again. Longevity is definitely a concern in terms of content, but at least console cross-play ensures that its player base will stay healthy for a little while.

    Evil Dead brings a brand new tactical thrill to the multiplayer horror genre.

    Evil Dead: The Game is a magnificent addition to the film that Sam Raimi made. It lives up to the gore and satirical glory that earned decades of reputation for Raimi, and this title combines them in a survival game where you must be creative and smart to know how to finish each level.
