    I can't believe the poor ratings this gets, too often critics tend to compare new games to the industry leaders. This game is super unconventional when discussing MOBA, if you're looking for a change of pace then this is the game. Great dynamics and it has massive potential to grow in the future.

    The bad user reviews seem to be pointed at an uneducated player, not a bad game. Overall the game is very fun, it has some issues but the amount of potential is nothing short of amazing.

    its an online-multiplayer which 3 team - each consist of 4 player , gun fight each other. its good game which give you fun. there is a great problem in this game: demons are so powerful. its unbalanced and may ruin your fun. as a free to play game, its really worth.

    Kill Strain is a very innovative concept and it shouldn't even be allowed to be called a MOBA. Pseudo teams are put together just for convenience but in actuality the game is a hidden FFA where each player is attempting to beat one another in score by preforming various tasks. Both Mercs and Mutants are fun to play as and each character has a unique kit that's easy to pick up but hard toKill Strain is a very innovative concept and it shouldn't even be allowed to be called a MOBA.

Both Mercs and Mutants are fun to play as and each character has a unique kit that's easy to pick up but hard to master. Given it's unique game play and different ways to get score every game ends up being different and throwing mutants into the mix of things gives the game a certain unpredictability that you won't find in other games.

    The developers are extremely active in the game. From what I understand, there is only a team of around 40 people working on this game. However, I see them in game almost everyday I play so they are always aware of the problems and are constantly improving the game based on both their own experiences and that of the community's experiences as well. It's also FREE, and Micro transactions here are actually not bad at all. I found that the characters are not at all hard to obtain and I felt like spending money on this game was more like supporting the game and it's future rather then the game taking advantage of me and my money.

    As of this review the biggest downfall of Kill Strain is the lack of a party system in the game. But the developers are currently releasing patches to get the game ready for such a party system and I wouldn't be surprised if that's fixed in the near future. It's free, only a few gigs atm, and with several characters in the works and lore patches for each character on the horizon this game has a bright future and I would definitely check it out if you get the chance.    … Expand

    Kill Strain has a lot of cool ideas, but many of them don't translate when mired by the sluggish pacing of each round. I think it definitely needs some further optimization, but the uneven fun factor between the Merc and Mutant camps may take longer to iron out.

    Some good ideas are hidden behind several aspects that feel unfinished. It's a shame, because the core mechanic works, but its lack of content and shortcomings are just too obvious. Still, it's free, so it's worth a try.

    Despite its attractive idea of teams in initial numerical disadvantage to force an imbalance, Kill Strain is a game where you have only a sense of fun playing like beasts.
