    Stranger Things 3: The Game has its plus sides and its minus sides, just like any game. However, there are more plus sides. If you're a fan of the show and dig retro 8 bit and 16 bit games like Retro City Rampage, you'll dig the 15 bit graphics the game has. As for the game play, one gets to control two characters at a time and as they progress they unlock more characters to play withStranger Things 3: The Game has its plus sides and its minus sides, just like any game.

As for the game play, one gets to control two characters at a time and as they progress they unlock more characters to play with and can craft more stuff to make them stronger. The characters go around beating up Russians and solving puzzles and the beat em up part is easy but the puzzles, a few can be a bit challenging, while one is annoying since there are no hints. In short, the game play is fun and things don't get too repetitive but one or two of the puzzles could have been left out. Other than that, there's not much to say since this isn't some big budget game with a huge soundtrack, voice dialog, and over the top graphics, its just a fun retro 16 bit game that ST fans should enjoy unless they are totally obsessed with modern day graphics.… Expand

    You can manage your team. On the first boss, your appanent stands rooted to the spot, does not follow you and constantly dies. I'm not a dumb AI babysitter. Brilliant!

    Is it really weird to make these kids kill guards at the beginning of the game?

    Weird things.

    The art style of Stranger Things 3: The Game is pure nostalgia. This adaptation of the popular Netflix series has some cool aspects like a funny crafting system and the characters are convincing. On the other side, many of the quests are really monotonous, annoying and boring. The second bad thing about this game are the fights. They are undynamic and unsatisfying.

    I'm not a fan of the series and I didn't like the game at all, the story is not good, the puzzles are mediocre and the fights are unnecessary
    and boring. Why is there such a game?

    While it draws upon influences of games long past, it ultimately fails to incorporate more recent innovations in its genre.

    Stranger Things 3: The Game proved to be a much more mature and complex title than what could have been expected.
