Party Animals is probably the most entertaining and funny cooperative brawler out there at the moment, making it easy to forget even its most fierce competitor, Gang Beasts. Yet, little details like a high input lag and a totally useless game camera provided to each player downmies the true scope that this little game could have accomplished.
In all, Party Animals is a pretty fun game, with multiple maps that each have different gimmicks and can be incredibly entertaining. That being said the controls feel clumsy and take a bit of getting used to. In addition, unless you have a group of friends to play with, Party Animals may get old fairly quickly. To be fair, that is rather par for the course for a game whose focus is multiplayer, so it isn't anything outright against Party Animals. If you're a fan of multiplayer shenanigans or adorable creatures, then this is a game to keep an eye on!
There is enough content here to keep the game entertaining for a while, and as long as the annoyance of the purposedly sluggish controls can be forgiven, then Party Animals will be having players laughing and cursing for many months to come all thanks to its wacky physics and fun game modes.
Whilst the DNA of Party Animals is nothing new, there’s enough here to warrant giving it a go if you’re a fan of the genre. The visuals are great, the animals are cute as all hell and the levels are beautifully designed. Playing it with friends really brings the game to life, so don’t forget to bring some along.
Party Animals is simply frustrating to play, and most of the minigames boil down to the same scrappy situations that get old fast.
Preordered the Deluxe version on Steam and the bonus skins are sooooo cute! This game is so much fun! My boyfriend and I played it at home for a whole weekend, and we played until our hands were shaking and our stomachs hurt from laughing. I hope it will be available on the PlayStation Store soon so that we can play it with our family on the TV.
