    The Spell Brigade is excellence in the survivors-like genre, offering players a chance to partake in some whacky, chaotic co-op wizardry. While designed for online play, solo players can still appreciate the title, though they may find progression to be a slower grind overall.

    The Spell Brigade is just a good bullet heaven that can be enjoyed by yourself, but especially with friends. With incredible spells, tons of enemies, plenty to unlock, and potentially lots of friendly fire, I recommend giving this game a shot.

    The Spell Brigade does just enough to elevate the genre, and becomes a fun, challenging roguelike with the bonus element of co-op. The progression system hasn't survived Early Access unscathed, but it remains enjoyable nonetheless.

    The Spell Brigade doesn't do anything wrong, but it also doesn't do anything to make itself stand out in a sea of survivors-like games. Its gameplay isn't all that exciting, its art and sound design is ho-hum, and any meaningful upgrades take far too long to unlock. There are plenty of other games in the genre that are far more rewarding to play.
