    The Riftbreaker offers a stunning combination of genres that will stun players visually and will undoubtedly become an addiction in no time.

    The Riftbreaker successfully blends real-time strategy, tower defense and twin-stick action alongside a stunning and surprising visual compartment. A bit more could have been done to simplify the management of all the elements with a controller, but when it all works it can offer heart-pounding matches.

    The Riftbreaker is an addictive, complex, and satisfying RTS/bullet hell hybrid, even while it suffers from some very noticeable performance issues.

    The Riftbreaker does enough in a new and interesting way to be worth your time. With four biomes to go at, and a survival mode to try out (although you’ll probably want to stay away from the ultra hard difficulty!), there’s a lot of content to go at. The campaign is a decent length too. All in all, if you want something a bit different to the norm, The Riftbreaker might just be it.

    For people that love Stardew Valley and wanted to see it collide with a kaleidoscope of other genres with a Sci-Fi coat of paint are in for a ride. For those that shudder at the sound of the words ‘Stardew Valley’ avoid.

Steep but fun learning curve because there's so many things to do! It is also the most unique game ive played in years. With tower defense, rts, base building, arpg, and survival thrown into a blender it is just so much fun and very addicting. 10 out of 10 for sure. Thank you Exor studios for this amazing game!… Expand
