    Struggling's difficulty and intense nature will have players on the edge of their seats gripping their controller as they helplessly attempt to flop Troy's arms away from danger. Or, if they bring a friend, it will incite some hilarious gaming memories. Struggling is easily an instant classic from Chasing Rats studio, and anyone who is up for a challenging and memorable experience should give this game a whirl.

    Struggling has imaginative indie talent sloshing throughout. Plus, you can tell it's got a big publisher behind it, believing in its charm and uniqueness.

    Struggling is a unique game: difficult, sometimes frustrating, full of nauseating characters, but incredibly fun. Coop multiplayer is also a great experience.

    The game is fun but it's also hard, but not too hard 2-3 tries in each hard section and you pass it.
    It's hard to control for a reason, It's
    The game is fun but it's also hard, but not too hard 2-3 tries in each hard section and you pass it.
    It's hard to control for a reason, It's called struggling and you are a tumor with two hands struggling to even move.

    if you don't take it too seriously you will find a good game made with love.
    The soundtrack is godlike, I found myself dancing to it more than enough.

    If you cant handle a bit of stupidity and take everything too personal either git gud or go play minecraft or something.

    a piece of **** with God awful controls just for the sake of adding useless mechanics. if you make a game with a story, why obstruct thea piece of **** with God awful controls just for the sake of adding useless mechanics. if you make a game with a story, why obstruct the player learning about it by **** up all the core mechanics? it's awful. horrid artstyle and garbage soundtrack with even worse voice acting.
