A point for the winner, and aggressive feelings from the loser is how these games run, provided you’re playing with friends and not strangers. Melee is exactly that, a melee of who can survive to the end. It’s no rival to FIFA but having no rules does take me back to the good old days of RedCard or This is Football and it can bring a good laugh as you drag each other away from the ball and faceplant others into the walls. Football is as you’d expect two goals, one ball and the one with the most goals at the end of the timer wins. Besides that, a single wave-based game mode in which players try to survive against increasing numbers of seriously determined and encroaching enemies is easily the dullest mode in the game.īesides Waves, there are three other modes to get stuck in with – Melee, Gang and Football. Sadly though, unlike that game, Gang Beasts requires you to have multiple other players ready to play too, otherwise you’re not really going to get anywhere thanks to the complete lack of A.I. In play the game looks and feels a lot like that of Human: Fall Flat, one of the other fantastic physics-based games on Xbox One in which you control a gelatinous character. Tapping each one will result in a punch from the associated hand whilst holding the bumper will allow you to grip onto whatever you’re next to, be it a wall, a sign or another player’s head. To do this you’ll need to first master the controls, with the bumpers controlling your hands – left bumper for the left hand, right bumper for the right hand. This may mean throwing them off the map, dropping them into a grinder, or pushing them into a pit of fire for example. The gameplay is fine you must take your gelatinous blob of humanoid-ish jelly and knock out the other competitors before throwing them to their demise in any way possible.
