Review: ‘Wadality’ is a mostly online arena shooter in which you play as a choice of 5 fun characters, all of which have the same shape just about, but different costumes so to speak. You then have to score as many points as you can against the AI, or other players. Sadly there is a lack of online players at the moment, but the AI does offer a good challenge anyway. The good news is the gameplay is fast and frantic with an ‘all-guns-blazing’ style. While the graphics are a little basic you don’t really notice them in the heat of the action.

It is the price, the lack of online players and the lack of content that puts me off recommending this game, but I am giving it some leeway because it is still in early access. With more players, more game modes and more arenas this could be a fun online shooter, but with so many others out there it will be hard to grow any kind of community let alone keep them playing. But I will keep an eye on the game anyway and update this review if things change.
