This game has a few grievances with it that are all completely valid: No offline mode despite the wording originally saying there was (the dev team even doubling down that it was essentially a reading error (they were right, you were wrong) due to English not being their first language), and the monetisation model for the game.

Again, neither of these are invalid complaints.

Just because Fall Guys got away with it when it was a paid game, doesn't make it okay. The multitude of different currencies are akin to mobile games made solely to trick people into spending money (including ridiculously bad conversion rates). This is bad business practice, players want ONE kind of currency from a paid game, no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

Despite these grievances - the game is good for what it is. It's a solid foundation for a genuinely fun party game.

- The hitboxes are janky, but that almost works in its favour as if they were too defined, the game may become too sweaty.
- The AI players are less than useless, in team-based game modes they essentially just run at the objective and are made to be fodder. In elimination modes, they don't even fight back, or just end themselves like Amazon package drones that realised they're not being paid.
- The report system is pretty lackluster considering the profanity filter is *too* good, including the blocking of "God." I can't believe how many times I've heard slurs be yelled in a party game about fluffy animals being sucked into a black hole.
- The servers and matchmaking suck, like, Multiversus tier suck. If you try to punch someone that you got matched with that's in Mexico, playing on their stolen Xbox, that punch isn't going through. In fact - you've already been punched one thousand times and they've won three times before you even realised you're dead.
- No filters for certain maps. I don't want to play team-based modes with Jimmy Jr. (4) that's on his dad's Steam Deck in the basement with one bar of wifi that feels nothing but the urge to run at the ball, or grab anything that moves. I don't want that.
- The music is awful. Seriously.

It sounds like a lot of negative points, and that's true. But despite this, I recommend it because it's fun, and I really hope they keep moving in a direction that focuses on the fun elements it has.
