    Perish is a solid FPS roguelike with tons of replayability, often giving off a DOOM-vibe that pushes you to the limits of your own sanity.

    Overall, Perish is a game that achieves conceptual brilliance and incorporates it down to the finest detail in many areas. Unfortunately, it stumbles when it comes to the execution. Some poor gameplay decisions hold it back, notably enemy design and spawn rates. It’s entirely possible that with future updates, the game will heal its scars, but for now, they run deep, blemishing the gameplay; yet, the aesthetics remain immaculate.

    This game is not good. poor gameplay, boring jenky enemies, bosses easy and feel out of place, music doesn't match gameplay or style, tediousThis game is not good. poor gameplay, boring jenky enemies, bosses easy and feel out of place, music doesn't match gameplay or style, tedious to playthrough for more than an hour. Not to mention the optimization issues making the game freeze slightly after every revolver kill. Only gimmick to make it fun is playing multiplayer, but same could be said for any game, good or bad, playing anything with friends if more fun. Just because it looks cool in screenshots and videos because of Unreal engine, doesn't make it fun to play. Also, just because the game has 2 developers, is not an excuse for not knowing how to make a fun game, Binding of Isaac had 2 developers and is still an amazing and genre defining game, DUSK and Amid Evil had 1 developer each and are exceptional games. Negative reviews are accurate on Steam, the positive reviews seem to copy and paste each other that repeat, "2 developers". "don't listen to negative reviews", "fun", and etc. Very disappointing release.… Full Review »
