    This is not nearly as fun as Enter the Gungeon. And it’s very disappointing that there’s no multiplayer. But it’s still a very fun game to play and very rewarding when finally Learn a boss’s patterns and beat them.

    I don’t like Exit the Gungeon at all. What has worked for Enter the Gungeon in 3D, it doesn’t work in 2D as it is just too challenging. Most annoying thing is that weapons change all the time which I found very annoying as I don’t like it when a game dictates me which weapon I have to use. Enter the Gungeon was great, this game is frustrating and mediocre.

    I had fun playing this game until I Exit the Dungeon, then I stopped. Took me about 5 hours. I recommend it on sale though.

    How do you manage to make Enter The Gungeon harder? By getting rid of the 3D perspective, of course!

    Man, idk, it's fiiiine, but just...play the original.

    Exit the Gungeon does a charming job at taking the original's core gameplay loop, and flipping it on its head, but the follow up is more glorified mini-game than it is spin-off. The controls are mechanically tight, and the emphasis on dodge rolling compliments the vertical level design well, but losing the dungeon crawling that defined Enter the Gungeon (and subsequently the thrill of finding secrets) is a tremendous loss. An emphasis on RNG also makes it difficult to enjoy the gunplay, as most weapons gone as soon as they appear. Exit the Gungeon may have Enter the Gungeon's chaos, but it lacks its soul.

    Exit the Gungeon is as crazy, manic and ambitious as its predecessor. It has addicting gameplay and the range of guns, items and enemies to experience is overwhelming. I only wish its level design was as great as the original.

    Exit the Gungeon is a lot of fun to play, especially if you liked Enter the Gungeon. It is noticeably streamlined, which may hint at its mobile origins, but it's still a frantic and skillful bullet hell experience. It makes a few choices that don't fully pay off, such as its randomized guns arsenal that often feels like gambling. I'm not fully on board with the tight spaces restricting movement, and the new jump-dodge did not click for me in the same way as the trusty old dodge-roll. While these aren't necessarily small gripes, they don't suppress my enjoyment of Exit. If you enjoy twin-stick shooters or bullet hell games, Exit the Gungeon is a rough gem to take a closer look at.
