Broracus, Double Bro Seven, The Brofessional by now you’re probably picking up on the theme. The large team of varied bros themselves are the big stars, and there are plenty of them. Beyond that there’s even an intimidating level editor, but if you’re too daunted to try that out you can simply browse through and quickly and easily load community-made levels. There’s also a dedicated deathmatch mode for those of you who’d rather work against one another than together it’s perhaps a little too chaotic for my tastes, but it’s a laugh in short bursts. The bros are quick and nimble and there’s a good level of nuance in the controls.The sheer amount of explosive objects on screen means destruction gets pretty wild with other players involved so I’ve actually found myself preferring to play it solo, where you control the pace yourself. I found that particularly useful against the large, fire-spitting, worm-like bosses you can create tunnels to get right up against the still-buried parts of their bodies and use the intact terrain above to temporarily protect you from their ranged attacks. Blast through walls to access buildings and get the drop on the baddies inside, or fire through the ground itself to tunnel beneath potential engagements.

I love how hilariously dim-witted the regular enemy mooks are but, as just one shot will kill you, you still need to play with precision. Some of the later levels change this up somewhat as the enemies segue from enemy soldiers to aliens, and later again to supernatural nasties, but that’s the general gist. Laughs and a good challenge are guaranteed.The objective of most levels is simple you just need to blast and/or dart your way through several different locations and very literally get to the chopper. It's fun and on-point at every corner and there's always a new Bro to discover.Īfter playing I had the urge to watch almost all movies referenced in the game.ĭeveloped by Free Lives, a game studio from South Africa, Broforce excels at everything it proposes to do. The ultra-hyper-power-virility is your most powerful weapon to fight against the alien threat that is trying to destroy the world. The extra sauce that makes Broforce special is its patriotic theme and acid humor. Prepare to explode yourself more than once while navigating levels full of treats and hidden explosives. There's a plethora of different characters (Bros) to fight, each one with its unique set of abilities. The gameplay is simple and straightforward, you run and shoot the enemies while destroying the entire level if you want (in some cases this is the best approach while in others you can rapidly regret it).
