- And what I'm going to do in this video is talk about my 10 favorites.
- So, these are not like complete reviews or finished thoughts. Uh, just a partial feeling for the game so far.
- Honestly, these three might top the list, but I've covered them on the channel in
- Alpha Team Mechanized Battle Force Go.
- It's like a very light quick uh family weight to dungeon crawler experience.
- This is one of the most beautiful basically looks like it's a finished game prototypes I've ever seen.
- So like the characters are very diverse and they each have a fully unique set of equipment and special abilities as you level up.
- it was a blast, both three and five player, which is pretty dang impressive for a quick dungeon crawler experience.
