I think it's exceptionally funny that this game is almost right next to Firewatch on my list, yet Firewatch and Hammerwatch are thoroughly unrelated games that have absolutely nothing to do with each other and nothing in common. Weird.

I'm just trying to think of ways to fill this space because I don't have an exceptional amount to say about Hammerwatch (something that's going to cease being true the further I get down the list). Hammerwatch is a little Gauntlet-like hack-and-slash, it's nothing special, but I found it greatly appealing all the same - it scratched that itch of just wanting to go on a dungeon-exploring adventure with a friend, killing some monsters, finding some treasure, getting some cool powerups, nothing too heavy or fascinating here, I just had a great fucking time with it and that's pretty much the most I have to say on that matter! I'd say bring a friend or don't bother with it at all, playing it single player would probably be a little dull, but as a co-op game, it gets the job done.

I haven't played the sequel, Heroes of Hammerwatch, but I'm sure it's probably fun.
