Dead Star is a cool twin stick shooter with fun online multiplayer. Teamwork however is essential for both victory and fun, that like with most games, that all comes down to the player base themselves and doesn't reflect on the quality of the game.
Dead Star has some great ideas and plays extremely well, but the game desperately needs more content than it has right now.
It may not be your cup of tea, but it still manages to be greater than the sum of its parts. Sometimes.
But despite all the layers and categories of choice, Dead Star doesn’t feel daunting at all – you can jump right in get into the fun quickly and easily.
