I was wary about the price point but it’s so worth it and no two runs are exactly the same. Definitely worth the buy ### 5/5 — 完成度が高い面白さ！ *2026-08-18* ティア1コレクションをコンプした段階の感想。面白いです！６つの種族？それぞれに7つのキャラクターがいて様々な性能と組み合わせがあるけど、ビルドを考えて上手く組み合わせればどのキャラもちゃんと輝けるところが素晴らしい。いやこれ絶対ムリでしょ・・・ってステージもちゃんとクリア出来ます。まさかコイツとコイツがこんなシナジーを生むなんて、という事も起きたりして奥が深い。とても完成度の高い面白さを感じました。オススメ！ 追記：ティア2ボス無理くね？？ってなってるけど、もっと上手くやれば勝てるんだろうな。やっぱ面白い！ 追記2：ティア2ボス撃破！やっぱ面白い！3はもっとヤバいんだろうな😅 追記3：ティア2コレクションコンプ達成！ 追記4：ティア3ボス撃破！これ他のビルドで勝てるのか・・・？ ### 5/5 — They get it. *2026-08-17* You can tell the dev(s) for this game have actually played other games before. They know what makes good and engaging mechanics and have created a game with tons of replay-ability. Love the artstyle and the color palette. Great work. ### 1/5 — LaggyAhhGame *2026-08-16* This game is amazing and fun (on pc). On mobile once you get to around round 103 against ferral pigs the mobile version lags like crazy if you dont have your resolution at 720p and fps at 60. It will be unplayable to the point you die because of lag. now if they find a way to fix the lag i would be more than happy to give it 5 stars, but advertising the game as the same as pc yet you cant optimize it is sad. Especially when it cost $10 ### 5/5 — worth it *2026-08-16* so many good team combos in this game. after plenty hours i thought it was gonna get boring, but then i started doing the next difficulty tier and it’s a whole new experience. 10/10 ### 2/5 — Gameplay loop is too flat *2026-08-15* Wish there was more game modes ### 5/5 — Addicting *2026-08-15* I’ve always been a fan of the bscotch bros, and listening to their podcast (coffee with butterscotch, which in and of itself is an amazing and fun thing to listen to because the guys are just awesome) gave a fun way of tracking this games development, so when it came out I was excited to grab it. The game itself is very addicting - the game cycle keeps me wanting to do just one more quick round so I can see what dudes or gear I might get. It’s simple at face value but deep in terms of determine dude synergies and coming up with a strategy each run based on what RNGesus throws your way. The devs are also active on the games reddit page and are working on implementing updates based the feedback people provide. Great game, would recommend! ### 5/5 — One of the best rogue-likes. *2026-08-13* I have been following this game for a while and wondered when it would get a release on mobile. I love this game, that art style, the “shenanigans”, and all the mixing and mashing you can do. ### 5/5 — Sehr gut *2026-08-12* Was soll man sagen einfach nur perfekt ### 5/5 — レリックとキャラのスキルが組み合わせが上手くいくと面白い！ *2026-08-12* ネクロ、量子、将軍、フランケン、ゾンビが1番気持ちよかった！ 他にも色々な組み合わせ探してみたい😆 ## Frequently asked questions about How Many Dudes? ### What is How Many Dudes? gameplay like?
