    Arc Runner gets a lot of things right. A surprisingly extensive collection of weapons that can be unlocked for future use, all of which spawn with a variety of abilities and different rarities. The main skills feel great and you get a new mod after every map section; you’ll lose those mods after death but they can stack and offer great bonuses. The multiplayer seems to work well but is almost a requirement with how difficult this game can become running solo. If you like sci-fi shoot ‘em ups and need to scratch the gear grind itch, this game with sooth that urge, you can even bring a friend or two. I enjoyed the throwback, arcade feel so I am definitely going to keep playing Arc Runner……I need to unlock that Hacker class.

    ArcRunner offers an immersive roguelite action experience, with a variety of classes and difficulty modes, as well as multiplayer mode. Although it faces obstacles in terms of usability due to its unfriendly interface and the lack of clarity in some of its mechanics, the game could reach its full potential with some adjustments and offer a more rewarding experience for players.

    I’m told from other people who’ve played ArcRunner on PC that the game is a lot better in multiplayer. I believe it, but I don’t really consider that a saving grace. Any game is more fun in multiplayer; the whole point of a game that is not always online is that it can be played solo. That’s part of the point. As it stands, ArcRunner is not a bad game. I don’t think it’s truly dire by any stretch of the imagination, even with the font being kind of awful. But it’s just not a very good game either. It’s fine. And just fine doesn’t get much more than a tepid recommendation. There are a lot of games in this genre, and a lot of those are more fun to play with.
