    This game is absolutely phenomenal, in fact it's my favorite game ever. Tight gameplay, amazing soundtrack, comprehensive tutorial and training modes, wonderful character designs, a very well-balanced roster, the smoothest online in town, this game has everything! I truly love it. As a footnote, the development team has said if the game gets enough support, they'll add even more content.This game is absolutely phenomenal, in fact it's my favorite game ever.

    I have over 200 Hours put into this game and can say without a doubt that this is one of the best fighting games to come out in quite a while super smooth online gameplay that doesn't stutter and freeze every 5 seconds a wonderfully diverse cast that are actually unique from one another and are super fun to play robust story mode that is charming and is actually worth sitting through andI have over 200 Hours put into this game and can say without a doubt that this is one of the best fighting games to come out in quite a while super smooth online gameplay that doesn't stutter and freeze every 5 seconds a wonderfully diverse cast that are actually unique from one another and are super fun to play robust story mode that is charming and is actually worth sitting through and done in a way to differentiates itself from most triple A games dynamic music system is amazing and should honestly be incorporated into more games tbh there's more to love here but my absolute favorite thing about this game is the Dev team super helpful is very transparent with and loves to interact with the community and receive feedback from them and most respectable of all is their sheer commitment to create the best possible game they can despite all the hardships they have endured they've never given up and it shows but yeah this game is phenomenal I'd recommend anyone who is a fan of 2d fighters to give it a try.… Expand

    Terible fightimg game with waý less playable characters than should be allowed in a game...Very creepy art and is made to appeal to degenerates like bronies and furries.

    Excelente juego, con mecanicas ni muy complejas ni muy simples, un cast muy colorido y me atreveria a decir aun mas llenos de personalidad que los que alguna vez fueron (los de MLP) escenarios preciosos, un tutorial muy completo, un netcode de maravilla y un modo historia que deja en ridiculo a muchos otros de el genero, turbo recomendadisimo

    This game is solid from the ground up. A well-put together fighting game with interesting lore and extras if you know where to look. At the time of review, there are some things still missing from the game, which keep the score from going higher for me. What's there already puts it in the green, but until the features the game has been toting become fully functional, I find it hard to makeThis game is solid from the ground up. A well-put together fighting game with interesting lore and extras if you know where to look. At the time of review, there are some things still missing from the game, which keep the score from going higher for me. What's there already puts it in the green, but until the features the game has been toting become fully functional, I find it hard to make a glowing recommendation. The game isn't impenetrable for newcomers to the fighting game genre, but there is a steep learning curve. Beautiful graphics, stellar music, and a prevalent theme, strapped around a solid, if not perfect, fighting game core. If that sells you, pick it up!… Expand

    Let's face it: people are cowards because they are afraid of cutesy animal characters in video games.
    Them's Fightin' Herds is a great fighting game even though it can seem like some cheap My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic knock-off to some really stupid people. I don't deny its origins yet people really do need to consider that this game is set in a completely different universe.

    Soundtrack is top-notch as well as character design, story mode, tutorials etc.
    Online lobbies are fun and there is a PvE/PvP game where you can earn in-game currency to buy accessories in the lobby shop and a Battle Shrine where you can spectate or fight with other people. (Though, you can always call the specific person on a casual match)
    Well, the only complains I have are some glitches which apparently happen only with my own copy and not entirely balanced roster.
    OH, BY THE WAY, THIS GAME HAS ROLLBACK NETCODE!    … Expand

    Fix the bloody "Super Jump" reaction time, or reduce sensitivity on the instant rebound on landing.

    The only reason this doesn't get a zero is because the music and animation are good, but an unplayable game doesn't deserve more than a 1.

    В сумме наиграл около 50 часов. Этого вполне хватило, чтобы познать всю боль и сломать dualshock 4. Это замечательный файтинг, который идет даже на офисной картошке. Геймплей и прост и сложен одновременно. Боты могут показаться сложными, я тренировался на них часов 20-25. Со временем их действия становятся читаемыми, и вы спокойно их побеждаете.

Со временем их действия становятся читаемыми, и вы спокойно их побеждаете. Когда вошел в мультиплеер, меня унизили! Жестоко унизили!!! Соперники с 400+ часами даже не дают вам применить атаку! Они вас забивают!!! Вам остается только удерживать блок, пытаться отпрыгнуть хотя бы не в сторону соперника и сдерживать слёзы!

    Минусов у игры особо нет. Хорошая производительность, яркий дизайн, заводной саундтрек. (Клянусь, я его слушал в спортзале.) Можно придраться к слабой кастомизации в "пиксельном лобби" и позднему выходу на других платформах. А, и персонаж Shanty меня бесит. Сегодня игру анонсировали на PS, Xbox и Nintendo Switch, Я уверен, среди игроков Nintendo Switch найдутся люди, которые полюбят эту игру.    … Expand

    With fluid gameplay, gorgeous visuals, and an incredibly inventive story mode, there's a lot to love in this unique fighting game. The limited roster may prove to be the biggest challenge this game faces in maintaining a strong community, but with so many positive changes since it's 2018 Early Access launch and the spotlight of an Evo Online tournament, there's nowhere to go but up for Them's Fightin' Herds.

    Them's Fightin' Herds is an exceptional fighting game by any measure, only held back by its tiny roster of six characters.
