Strange Brigade

I think the game has potential with friends.
Its kinda the basic dungion runner, pretty fun in what it does. When it was in sale i bought it for a few euro's and played it way later to get some achievements. The mechanics are based on teamwork so durring the solo run it was pretty anoying, tho when i played it with buddies it was kinda fun for a while.
Would recommend on sale.

Nawet Dobre. Różni bossowie i fajne mapki i widoki.
Trochę balans i statystyki broni mogłyby być lepiej zrobione bo jakoś jedną broń przez całą grę używałem jako główną bo najlepsza, nie licząc jakichś super broni które znajduje się po drodze i które są tymczasowe aż się skończy w nich amunicja.

strangely annoying

fun

Strange Brigade

It's not Rebellion's finest game, but it is underrated.

quick fun game

It's a fun puzzle FPS with an entertaining single player campaign and online four player co-op.
I love the Egyptian setting and the style of the presentation.
It isn't worth the AAA price tag, but if you see it on a good sale, it is totally worth playing.

Some of the best moments with my best friend, was in this game. It's a really good coop game for when you just want to relax, shoot and some times, solve some puzzles.

Gameplay is basically a mix of horde and puzzle solving. Main complaint is that the actual gunplay doesn't feel satisfying on the highest difficulty unless you find enough/the correct gems (which are randomly unlocked via chests - though only sometimes) to properly upgrade weapons.

Only recommended if it's on sale and if playing with friends.

Fun. Not $50 fun, but fun.

Güzel

Pretty okay game, bought deluxe edition on sale for like 7-8$, and I personally wouldn't pay more than 15 for it. Did some maps several times, played horde only 1-2 times and got all achievements in 24.5 hours. Don't think I'd do that alone though, definitely more fun playing with friends.

Only downside with co-op for me, is this weird audio bug me and one of my friends are getting. Me and my friends melee sounds are only played in the left ear, same with their shooting. Also some of the bosses like the last bosses are only played in the left ear too. Very annoying, and didn't find a fix for it. My other friend doesn't get the issue for some reason.

The DLC almost isn't worth playing unless you already have it and want the 100% achievements. There are no new enemies, and the third DLC is the same setting as the base game.

A Fun & Unique Co-op Adventure with Supernatural Twist

Strange Brigade offers an exciting blend of co-op gameplay and supernatural action, set in a thrilling 1930s adventure. Team up with friends or AI to face hordes of undead, solve puzzles, and uncover ancient secrets. While it shines in its cooperative experience, the game can feel repetitive and lacks depth in certain areas. Perfect for quick, action-packed sessions with friends.

Positive Sides

1. Unique Setting and Story:

Set in 1930s Egypt inspired by pulp fiction, the game's unique setting with ancient tombs, supernatural creatures, and treasure hunting makes it definitely a refreshing departure from typical shooter games.

2. Cooperative Gameplay:

The game truly shines in co-op mode. Whether you're playing with friends or AI companions, the co-op experience is fun and engaging. Teamwork is key as you work together to overcome hordes of enemies, solve puzzles, and discover hidden secrets.

3. Very Well-Designed Environments:

The levels are thoughtfully crafted, with plenty of hidden areas and collectibles. The environments are filled with detailed architecture and atmospheric lighting, which adds to the immersive experience of exploring ancient ruins and battling supernatural forces.

4. Wide Variety of Weapons and Abilities:

Strange Brigade offers a wide range of weapons and unique abilities that keep combat fresh. From pistols and rifles to explosive traps, there’s something for every playstyle. The combination of shooting and puzzle-solving elements adds depth to the gameplay.

5. Challenging but Fun Enemies:

The game features a diverse array of enemies, including supernatural creatures and undead, which keeps combat exciting and unpredictable. Each enemy type requires different strategies to defeat, ensuring that combat remains engaging throughout.

Negative Sides

1. Repetitive Gameplay:

While the game is fun at first, the gameplay can become repetitive after a few levels. The main structure of shooting enemies, solving puzzles, and collecting treasures doesn’t change much throughout the game, which can lead to a feeling of monotony.

2. AI Companion Issues:

Although playing with AI companions can be fun, they sometimes lack the intelligence to effectively support you during combat. They may get stuck or fail to react in critical moments, making solo play with AI less enjoyable.

3. Limited Weapon Variety:

While there are a variety of weapons, they don't feel as varied in terms of gameplay impact. The combat doesn't evolve as much as expected, and some weapons can feel underwhelming when compared to the more exciting traps and abilities available.

4. Story Feels Shallow:

The narrative, while interesting in its premise, feels underdeveloped. The dialogue and plot points are not as deep or engaging as some players might hope for, making it harder to stay invested in the story throughout the game.

5. Graphical Issues and Performance:

The visuals, though appealing, can sometimes suffer from technical issues like inconsistent frame rates or texture pop-ins. These minor graphical hiccups may disrupt the immersive experience, especially in more intense combat sequences.

6. Price vs Competition :

I don't know why, but the game's price has increased significantly recently, despite its age. Considering its current full price, I have to give it a negative score on this end. I think it would be more appropriate to buy it during sales.

Conclusion:

Strange Brigade is an enjoyable co-op shooter with a unique setting, engaging combat, and fun puzzles. It offers an exciting adventure for fans of action games but can become repetitive over time. The AI companions and shallow story hold it back from reaching its full potential, but the cooperative experience and variety of weapons still make it a solid choice for multiplayer action.

Final Rating: 8/10

It was fun, love the dramatic narrator voice.

A lot of fun to play with a friend.

Normally,I don't like puzzle-type games.But Strange Brigade really has a different experience.After playing this game,I started to love puzzles.The game is really funny and very beautiful.It is a better game,especially with friends and a full team of 4 people.I would definetely recommend the Extreme challenge,and those bulls that were constantly running at you had me throwing a tantrum.I would not recommend buying the game at its current price.But if it goes on sale,I suggest you buy the full version.Good games

Worth varma worthuuu

Very good game. I played it alone, but I can see how much fun it would be with more people. Good humor, nice story, quite difficult, but overall, very good. I enjoyed all of it.

BRI"ISH

more fun with friends

Even the DLC maps are good

A super fun, fast paced shooter with a brilliant story line, those colonial Brits raided and plundered wherever they went and now you can to! What a jolly good show ol' chap!

Strange Brigade is a mix between watching a Indiana Jones cross The Mummy movie with some British wit, it's fun, the puzzles are great and challenging and the graphics, audio are spot on.

The game does get abit repetitive but at the end of the day, there is tons of fun to be had here in moderation ofcourse!

This game is awful.

This is one of those games that would be amazing for 5 bucks but a complete let down at full price.

Ultimately very fun, but it isn't as well fleshed out as, say the Tide games (Vermintide/Darktide) or Back4Blood. But it's fun, just set your expectations as a high-end indie rather than a triple A game.

Awesome Game, Better with friends

Bought it on a huge sale, worth every penny.
Recommend to have at least one friend to play it with.

Nice Game

When you just start the game — you immediately get carried away in the game from easy to hard (or extreme). And despite how much you have already managed to play from the beginning to the end, taking into account the collection of various things, such as urns, cats and relics, in the end there will still be a f'ing dullness (that is, you will have to sweat over some difficult achievements, especially if you are playing alone) in the last unobtained achievements.

The game itself is almost like CS:2. That is, you run and shoot at enemies, such as zombies, skeletons, and then bosses, who after the current level can also become regular enemies, almost remaining the same bosses. And with each level, the bosses will increase in size. Oh yeah, and don't forget to loot heals and ammo, because the ammo is not infinite.

In addition, I will add that you will have to purchase several DLCs to get all the achievements.

Has way more personality than it has any right to

I love this game, it was really fun to play through with my wife and the narrator is really funny, I wouldn't say it's worth it at full price but it can get discounted for like £2 so definitely good value for that!!

Fun gameplay and story, with lots of humour. Single player is not that good and kind of defeats the purpose of the story. There are also several dynamics in co-op that are strange. You don't get to split the money or gems, making it more difficult to work together. Also, truly a shame that there are no bots.

Not fun. Bad game.

This game costed me only 2 dollars. So it was a great deal for a game like this. Graphics where good gameplay was fun story is a little bit boring, game had vibes like uncharted. Minimum bugs basicly none. Only took me 3 hours to get a perfect game, so the game is really short so if you consider buying for a regular price its not worth it. Achievements poped like they should.

el retardo0

Simplistic short looter with easy to solve puzzles, which makes this a easy going game to enjoy at your leisure. Nothing will blow you away in terms of depth, combat, level design or story, but playing with friends adds to the enjoyment.

nice

Awesome game to play with friends on coop

only worth it on a big sale

How have I let this great gem slip under the radar like a Blimp.
What a fantastic game. And picked up at a steal, awesome Co-Op fun with friends.

It's just like Zombie Army Trilogy just egypt theme & mummies instead of zombies

Gorgeous graphics and smooth gameplay!
Good solo but better with friends!

I was not expecting this to essentially be Gauntlet Legends as a third person shooter, but was pleasantly surprised. It is jank though, so your mileage may vary.

Great game if you like some puzzles and the graphics are pretty goo too

I absolutely despise the narrator at first I found him funny but suddenly it went downhill the moment we started to hunt for the cat statues , not sure who the writer for the narrator was but they are revolting , seems to be a cat hater and says unhinged stuff , keeps talking crap about cats and the last straw for me was when we shot a cat statue and he said too bad it wasn't a real thing , wtf? who wrote the dialogues? its not funny

Fun co op arcade style 3rd person shoot em up. Little puzzles and brigade is def strange.

Repetitive, boring combat which gets jarringly interrupted by mini cutscenes. Gameplay feels unsatisfying and controls weird on mouse and keyboard. Narrator dialogue is annoying.

Get on sale if bored.
Nice coop game but the console port was not well done.
Game runs bad and the controls are horrible on m&k.

great game, it's really fun, just wished there's more campaign
