Lots of fun with friends. No story mode (yet) but fun wave shooter. Worth the buy.

Sophie's Guardian puts you in the, er, paws of a teddy bear, fighting to save your owner from waves of killer dolls. Check out the full review below:

DIE! DIE!! DIE!!!
If Quick Draw was McCree simulator, this was a Reaper simulator.
So unfortunately I don't see any current mods for the game. While what's available is enjoyable and feels good. It's another +1 to an over-saturated genre that claims something unique but thus far the community has failed to deliver on the devs hopes.
And this really does seem like it's on the community and not the developer. The mechanics seem solid and a cursory look seem to reveal the devs are providing a good level of support and documentation for potential modders. The community just hasn't embraced the game.
That being said it's the chicken/egg dilemma on a smaller scale than normal but still...
You buy the game for the mods. There are no mods so the game doesn't sell. No modders pick up the game because it's not selling. Viscous circle ensues.
If one or two good modders picked up the game and made something nice out of the prices they were handed, I could easily recommend the game. As it stands now I just don't think it's worth the price. The async multiplayer is neat but I don't see that holding anyones interests very long.
What we need is someone to mod in locomotion/new areas/enemies. Maybe new weapons though I really liked the pistols. Without the mods Sophie's Guardian just doesn't shine or live up to it's full potential.
If a decent set of mods popps up I'll have to revisit the review.

This game is super creepy and puppeteer mode is really enjoyable!
It's a very simple and clever way to let another person be involved, rather than just waiting for their turn in VR
Very good party game because of it.

I supported this game at launch due to what appeared to be a creative developer and good ideas (plans) for early access however the dev(s) seems to have vanished since November. I don't know what happened but would not recommend this to anyone for purchase at the present time...

I love the atmosphere of this game! The teddy bear paws with the super long claws make me feel like a bad @!#! The gameplay is fun but I wish there was more to it. I want more of the brilliant story that's teased at! I want to go on a teddy bear rampage through nightmarish worlds to find the girl! I know this is a low key project but I'm telling you kickstarter or something.

Excellent game has very good frights and with the advantage that you dont dizzy whe you play, I'm anxious to see more development and have more scenarios, different enemies, etc. I think with what they can do offer at the end of the game can be greate.

Tons of potential here. The intro sorry was a great start and the scene is very creepypasta. The multiplayer was a good time, but the dev(s) needs to put a little more love into the game before I can fully recommend it. Till then it gets a thumbs up in hopes of future improvements.
Modding is fine and dandy, but a dev can't bank on the community making all the content.
