Beasts Shall Rise Reviews

This game has a lot of potential but needs LOADS of work. So far you don't get any time to learn how to play before being tossed into the deep end and the zombies are all bullets sponges that sprint full speed at you. On the bright side, the environment looks AMAZING and the enemy models look great too. We will see how this works after it is properly released, but not much is properly incorporated yet. Good luck Goblin Games, lets keep up the good work.

This is a strange and enjoyable game. You get straight into the action, it's brutal, no blah blah. The gameplay and gfx are pretty good for an indie VR game and keep in mind that it's an early access so the game is not fully polished and still missing some content.

I've been eyeing this game for years, so great to see it finally released :) Love the aesthetic of the old graveyard & the Reaper character (which caught innitially my attention way back). Tested it on an original quest & an 6g rtx 3060 laptop gpu. It starts up fine, movement is kinda jittery, this could be related to cable I'm using. Short first impression below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHa5JG2dNcE In all a perfect game for the Halloween season! :>

I initially gave this a negative review but after I managed to get the game running, thanks to the dev, I decided to change my mind. While there is a lot yet to be included in what is marketed as a rogue-like shooter, there's a lot of promise here to be something very fun. With some time, this could be a great indie shooter. Needs much stability updates and performance balancing. The explosions cause hits to frames before disappearing. Enemies are just hit sponges where there's not a lot of impactfulness. Gun recoil can annoy some people. There's no real "Rogue-like" that I encountered. No menu or options and everything just feels confusing when you have no understanding of what you're supposed to do or how to utilise the crucifix. At some areas, the Zs just spawn right in front of you after you kill a bunch from whence they spawned and that's a bit offputting to just be camped by infinite spawning Zs in the same places. The Zs also feel like they just take so many damage from anywhere with no real purpose to hit certain body parts. Anyway, while there are numerous reasons to complain, this is more a constructive criticism to the dev. Ultimately, optimisation should be primary and then the dead dudes need a good tweaking. What I DO enjoy from this is the firefights feel frantic and challenging. Not so simple and it's a breath of fresh air. Maps are nice and big with much to explore and the soundtracks are great. I do hope this EA game gets more progress over time. I would come back to it if I see it grow more but for now it just needs more than what I thought there was for an EA title. Much respect and good luck to the Dev.
