    Party Hard is an arcade game with a great gameplay loop, a lot of challenging levels, and some really fun mechanics to work with. The levels are intensely difficult throughout because you’re always aiming for a clean sweep to succeed. The joy that comes from success is the sign of a level well-played, one where you either planned everything perfectly or were just quick on your feet. It’s that feeling that defines Party Hard, the feeling of succeeding and wanting to try again and do even better. This is sure to hook you if you are in the mood for something a little different, and a little reticent of the days that we all used to spend chasing high scores.

    The potential for boredom is there, then, but the reward of finally killing all patrons after taking your time is a strong, satisfying one. Additionally, the mixture of an upbeat techno soundtrack, hilariously shocking gameplay, and a decent number of unlockable extras – as well as a fun multiplayer mode – make this a fine (if sometimes samey) experience.

    For those looking for a challenging and different take on both stealth and strategy games, Party Hard is absolutely worth a look. For those without patience or those wanting more of an action title, you might want to decline this party invite.

    With its immense amount of content and a very healthy lifespan, Party Hard is a game that should be on the radar of everyone looking for something with plenty of action and with some unique gameplay elements, with its experience being spoiled only by a long learning curve and a few AI issues.

    The bloody indie strategy game lands on Nintendo Switch while we wait for its second part. Short but fun, especially if you play with a friend.

    This game is just plain bad. Don't get it. Boycott future games.
