Initially, I was lukewarm on Wild Bastards. The narrative felt a bit meh and the game veered on easy on Normal difficulty. These combined made the experience be a bit repetitive and cardboard-y. But the excellent audiovisual style and the colorful characters kept me going until the end. Was going to agree with another reviewer that it was not as good as Void Bastards.
But then, on a whim, I decided to do the challenges. And immediately the game experience changed; Having a limited amount of Bastards (which are effectively weapons with a different HP bar attached that you can switch between) to perform the challenges made things more tactical, and the map movement more relevant. Once the difficulty was upped, and you had to [i]think[/i], the game clicked. Inspired, I did the max difficulty, perma-death-ish mode on (which was also interesting, since it's not necessarily permadeath in a traditional sense. If you go down, you lose access to the Bastard, until you get an item to revive them. You only lose when you lose everyone simultaneously), and it was tense, exciting and tactical. I had to rely on weird combos if I lost too many Bastards.
If I had something to complain, the Collector achievement is annoying, since there is no way to track what you have gotten, on higher difficulties the enemy pool gets kind of samey and pushes towards specific strategies (Armor shredding is a must), and the late-game Bastards feel a bit less effective, since you have less experience with them. But the procedural campaign fixes that.
So, eventually I recommend this. Click the permadeath notch on and up the difficulty a bit.

It's decent if you completely forget the existence of void bastards. It's basically a board game with battle arenas throughout.
Just makes me wish I was playing void bastards instead, but it's not bad.

Fond of the characters (execpt spike) Throughout the campaign. Gameplay was satisfying as it often line up fine with the right outlaws. for 35$ tho. Probably not. The story towards the end got kinda meh and the late game outlaws sorta out pace the earlier ones (My man casino fell off so badly)
If it's on sale, snatch it. it'll be worth the 5 bucks

Took about 10 hours on the Very Hard difficulty. Fun roguelike with an interesting premise of picking up different characters along the way that do better in certain fights. Can get some overpowered mods and abilities. Some enemies are really not suited to some characters, which is a bit of a harsh, first-time learning curve. Overall, fun game.

I liked Void Bastards, the cat and mouse element of it was cool. This game feels like the next step up: you're the cat, but there's a fox out there coming to get you (the Princes). I just finished the campaign and am getting into the challenges, and I'm having a great time.
The only big downside is that several of the characters are considerably better than others: Fletch, Judge, and Sarge are all leagues better than every other character, while Rawhide is pretty much just a walking passive because their gun is so awful without the right upgrades.

It feels like a big step down from Void Bastards (which I enjoyed). Plays really slow and the maps seem really dull and uninteresting.
Hope you enjoy it more than I did - wait for a sale to pick it up.
