    The game is "nice", if you play it on the killer side, very easy to kill, I would say, unfair, you can just hit and hit and hit, only using stamina, but you should get a little cooldown wihen you hist, just like DBD. Of course, scaping as a survivor is also very easy if you don't care of things being a killer, but they could just make it a bit harder for survs to open doors in exchange ofThe game is "nice", if you play it on the killer side, very easy to kill, I would say, unfair, you can just hit and hit and hit, only using stamina, but you should get a little cooldown wihen you hist, just like DBD.

I just can't handle some matches that I last less than two minutes because i can't just scape of them or because someone instantly opens the basement gate so I have the rest of the family on me.… Expand

    Wish the game released with more content, but it is really fun. I never found myself getting bored of the game (I have 30 hours invested). However, I hate Gun media's trend to make trophies an unnecessary grind and in some cases impossible (its like they didn't lean with Friday)

    Texas Chainsaw Massacre offers solid co-op gameplay, but the problem is that not enough players appreciate it enough to keep the servers busy, and even though it's very entertaining it may not survive long enough to be worth your money.

    After the very nice Evil Dead The Game, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre proves that we can adapt a legendary work without destroying it. The game is clearly a nice homage to Tobe Hooper's cult Texas Chainsaw Massacre. We find all the ingredients of the feature film between the locations, the objects which become mechanics (chicken cages, bones etc.), the grain of madness that we can have during certain parts and characters who are more careful than in the usual for the genre. Playing as a member of the Family is inevitably easier, but being on the Victim side brings another tension. A good immersion in this universe, and that of asymmetrical horror games, but which suffers from its blatant lack of content, the animations and modeling of the characters, and its too clean image. It would clearly have been necessary to dirty the visuals to further improve the atmosphere. If you're a fan and you start it, you should enjoy your few games, but for how long?

    The game is extremely faithful to the film which is an equal plus. What helps well in gameplay is that the maps are very well designed and the game has the necessary depth through the skill trees, which adds to the gameplay. At the same time, the content is quite limited and the game has some balance issues, as well as technical issues. As a result, the final result does not come out optimally. Despite these points, the game is worth a try for fans of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.
