Today’s game is R.E.P.O after i had a friend gift it to me on Steam. he also gave 2 other friends copies and one of my friends already had a copy so i can safely say this might be the largest group i’ve had yet for a game of the 4-idiots-dying-horrifically genre).

I don’t mean to compare one to the other or say “this game is better than the other game”, but personally i’ve found myself enjoying this more than Lethal company. It feels a bit more balanced in how you deal with the creatures, along with being easier to meet quota.

Dialing it back to the creatures, one of my favorite tricks so far has to be buying a Landmine and planting it for a creature to walk over. I got this weird ass Alien Psychic thing to walk over it in the above screenshot and it went blam.

I then proceeded to pull the same trick on this scarecrow lady that chases you down when she sees you. She chased me and i dropped the mine and dove for a table like it was a Action-Flick. She stepped on it and BLAM! Proudest move i’ve pulled in this game.

At one point we proved that none of our asses could be trusted in a gas station (or with explosives) after we chased each other around with a grenade and ended up blowing the bathroom door off it’s hinges. One of my friends, who i will nickname Shit Shoes (after a story where he stepped in shit at the mall), ended up dragging it into the van but then got crushed by it after they dropped it on themselves.

He couldn’t lift it off himself for some reason so me and my friends had to stop and help get it off him, not before i took a screenshot of him stuck though and our friend Chef (Nicknamed that because he’s the culinary guy) stood on top of him.

Another friend, who is nicknamed Little Italy after his obsession with Italy and Mario in specific (we’re like 50% sure these thing are probably not related), found this TV with me after we split off into pairs. This was after Shit Shoes told us “Don’t activate the TV, it will call enemies to out location”. Immediately he activates it, gets jump scared by a moose, and dives for cover.

Our run for the night though ended with me diving under a bed intending to Jump out and scare Shit Shoes, but i ended up finding this secret room. While i was side tracked checking it out, every one got wiped out by a blind man with a shot gun. The moment i stepped out looking for them, i got blasted too.

    I might look into picking it up for friends when it goes on sale. From what i’ve heard it sounds like the kind of thing we could have a good time with, maybe not at full price though
