BIGFOOT Review

BIGFOOT is a multiplayer survival horror game centered on hunting or playing as the legendary Bigfoot. Players appreciate its immersive open-world environment, crisp graphics, and the thrill of unpredictable encounters. The game excels in creating a fun, social experience, especially when played with friends, offering exciting gameplay mechanics that encourage teamwork and strategy. The developers have consistently released updates that improve the game, showing ongoing commitment to enhancing player experience.

However, the game has notable drawbacks, including frequent server issues such as long loading times and difficulties joining matches. Some players find the gameplay repetitive with limited replayability, and the Bigfoot AI can be predictable or overly aggressive, detracting from the horror aspect. Additionally, certain items and mechanics feel underdeveloped, and bugs or crashes occasionally disrupt gameplay. Overall, BIGFOOT provides an entertaining, if sometimes flawed, survival horror experience best enjoyed in a group setting.

Highlights

Social gameplay is highly valued, with many recommending playing with friends for maximum enjoyment. Regular updates from developers have improved the game over time, adding new content and refining features. The blend of suspense, strategy, and cooperative play stands out as a key strength.

Criticisms

The Bigfoot AI is sometimes seen as either too predictable or excessively bold, reducing the suspense and challenge. Some gameplay elements, like certain items, lack usefulness and depth.
