"Abyssus is a fast-paced game to play with your friends. It perfectly balances gameplay for those who just want to reach the end vs. those who want to challenge themselves."

"Despite these concerns, I’ve had a lot of fun with Abyssus, and I imagine I’ll continue to do so. It’s not the most complicated game I’ve ever played, and it has some balance issues, but it just feels so good …"

"Abyssus is another roguelite that could be balanced much, much better. While I’m sure a friend group could have fun as is, the sheer amount of gameplay-related things (weapons, mods) that must be unlocked could lose players’ interest before they …"

"Abyssus is a terrific first-person shooter, boasting one of the smoothest and most engaging gunplay mechanics with impactful gun customization. However, it falls short as a roguelite due to how uninspiring and unrewarding its gameplay loop is."

"A roguelike first-person shooter with a brinepunk aesthetic, Abyssus provides a lot of frantic fun, especially if played in co-op. Its progression could do with a little work, though, with you needing to grind Soul Fragments to unlock basic upgrades …"

"Abyssus brings a distinctive brinepunk style to an otherwise straightforward co-op roguelite shooter. There&s;s fun to be had here, but the step up in difficulty when playing co-op is a bit too punishing."
