  I will buy and play basically any local co-op game, especially ones that have more than two players. Boss Defiance looked like an interesting twist on the game Crawl, where one player is the hero and the others control dungeon traps and monsters. In Boss Defiance, one player is the boss and the other players are heroes. You race through the stages trying to kill the boss or destroy the dungeon crystal before the other side wins. Boss Defiance owes a huge debt to Crawl (to the point of feeling like a knockoff), which is not a perfect game but is leagues ahead in fun and polish. This feels like an early alpha. The bosses and characters are unbalanced, some being completely useless; the hit detection and gameplay are off; and there's little sense of motion or feedback. There's a kernel of a good idea at the core of this game, but it doesn't get close to being fun.

  After playing CRAWL, another fantastic asymmetric multiplayer game, my friends and I thought "wouldn't it be great if there was a mode where you got to choose a monster to fight against the heroes, and kept that monster throughout the entire series of fights as they moved through the dungeon, instead of having to frantically compete against the other players to get access to becoming something fun?" And then we saw this game. And it turns out the answer to that question is "YES, it is GREAT!". If you want to be able to choose a group of heroes, and then travel through a dungeon fighting a specifically chosen monster, all to the beauty of amazing pixel art, then HELLS YEAH this game is perfect for you! We love it. Full controller + Steam Link support. Note: There are some reviews that discuss balance may be off for some bosses/heroes. At first, my gaming group felt like that a few times (at one point for a boss, other times for a hero), but after longer sessions and getting used to the characters we found it worked out very well in the end. There was a time any of the heroes would win against a boss and wreck it. We would feel it was imbalanced. And then we'd try again and this time the boss would win (sometimes even slaughter us), and then in the next session it would flip, etc. In the end we all agreed that it felt "right" with any new fight never being one that we felt fully confident either side would probably win.

  Good couch party game, fun to play and to watch. Graphics are good , gameplay is perfect with multiple gamepads (but you can use a keyboard for multiple players, in case). Playable with 3+ friends Kudos to the team for the price tag, recommended
