    Bad graphics, boring gameplay, cheap and monotonous music, cheap sound and graphic effects and boring campaign. I dont recommend to buy this game. I buy this game at big sale in Steam and after this i was playing in this game 10 minutes and delete this. And i never play in this game again.

    This game is a Classic! A classic pump and dump game to grab cash from victims. The game has more bugs than a bee hive. Very glitch and boring graphics.

    This game is ridiculously hard and has horrible graphics. They push this game out too quickly and the poor reviews and game quality shows how much time they spent refining it.

    As many famous critics pointed out, this game was flawed from the start. It has graphics that will cause your eyes to bleed, Boring solo missions. I deleted this game in after a few minutes and felt cheated and stupid for not doing my research first before buying any game from this shady corporation.

    Shooting game for kids. Super stupid simple. The game play makes you do the same thing over and over again. So boring. Then it has been ages since they released an update for this game. I guess Muse games will stop at nothing to make quick cash. Please don't waste your money on a low level product like this when their are so many other better options on the market.

    The game is really good, piloting is fun and theres always something new to learn. The problem is the players as of 2020. If it was just the game I'd say its great, but the game is as much the VERY small player base as it is the game itself.

    High lvl players will stack onto a single ship of other high level friends. Meaning its always mid lvl players with AI crew.

    High lvl players will stack onto a single ship of other high level friends. Meaning its always mid lvl players with AI crew. And if you ask for them to share their crew they'll say something like "ITs JuST CAsuAl." But if you play calmly, they'll blame you for the loss. And if you even dare to say its because they have a full crew and you dont they'll just shut you down with a 'get good'. Its pretty crap.

    AND they'll make you sit in a damn lobby, taking forever to hit the ready button. Plus since for a game to start the players must hit "ready" you cant start a game with just captains and just play because If a high level player doesn't have at least 3/4 on board they usually wont hit start. They have the audacity to MAKE you wait to lose!

    What the game needs is for the game to force start no matter what in the lobby even if a ship captain swaps out of his position. The game NEEDS force balancing with players on both sides being of as close lvl and player quantity as possible. Players shouldn't be allowed to dictate what is fair.    … Expand

    What I found was a good idea hampered by bland visuals and difficulty that never felt fair.

    Repetitive gameplay and an inability to communicate with your co-op teammates will keep Guns of Icarus grounded. [Sept 2010, p.82]

    Despite its faults, it is definitely worth gathering some friends to play it with at least once, and you can figure out how you feel about it from there.
