Rank #1980 on PlayPulse
You are a contracted worker for the Company. Your job is to collect scrap from abandoned, industrialized moons to meet the Company's profit quota. You can use the cash you earn to travel to new moons with higher risks and rewards--or you can buy fancy suits and decorations for your ship. Experience nature, scanning any creature you find to add them to your bestiary. Explore the wondrous outdoors and rummage through their derelict, steel and concrete underbellies. Just never miss the quota. These dangers prey upon the vulnerable and lonesome, and the protection of your crew may be your only hope. You can guide your crewmates from your ship, using the radar to call out traps and using the ship's terminal to access remotely locked doors--or you can all go in together. The Company store has many useful tools for the job, including lights, shovels, walkie talkies, stun grenades, or boomboxes. Things get dangerous at night. Communicate with your crewmates to carry all valuables to the ship before things get too dangerous, and try not to leave anyone behind.
A friend recommended it and I owe them one. Lethal Company wears its Action, Adventure, Multiplayer influences on its sleeve, and it mostly works. The pitch — A co-op horror about scavenging at abandoned moons to sell scrap to the Company. — is delivered without too much filler. Pacing is generous, checkpoints are fair, and the whole thing respects your time. Checkpoints are frequent enough that a bad run never feels punishing. Worth it, especially on sale.
It took an hour to click, and then I could not put it down. Lethal Company leans hard into Action, Adventure, Multiplayer, and that is exactly the part that worked for me. It helps that the premise (A co-op horror about scavenging at abandoned moons to sell scrap to the Company.) actually shows up in the moment-to-moment play. Short sessions work fine here; I rarely lost progress to a bad checkpoint. Checkpoints are frequent enough that a bad run never feels punishing. Easy recommend at full price.
