Gameplay
With Rapturing the world in your mindset. Rapture Rejects at this time doesn’t stand out to its brothers in the genre. During most of your matches, you might find yourself finding more resources than actual enemies. That’s because of the playstyle the developers want the game to feel. With the game not being Free-To-Play at this time, and at a high price range for the genre, Rapture Rejects gameplay can feel a bit lonely when scavenging the lands around.
If you can get into a game at the time of this review, you’ll find yourself enjoying the new way this BR has to offer with its top-down gameplay. The ways you can hide from your enemy in bushes and behind trees, but playing Hide and Seek from your enemy might not be so fun when nobody is looking for you. At the end though, the new way of gameplay that Rapture Rejects brings to this overencumbered gaming genre will bring you in to look for more and keep your guys looking around at all times.
Graphics
With the funny comedy look that Cyanide & Happiness brings us with their cartoon animations. Rapture Rejects doesn’t disappoint with its easy-look graphics and the massive list of character customization that you have to choose from with funny clothes and different hairstyles, displaying the dark humor comedy that Cyanide & Happiness brings us.
While searching around the battlefield to stay alive, you have to take a second look at the environment around you. With the new playstyle, the developers at Galvanic Games and Explosm want to show us in this BR; they came through with the type of end-of-the-world theme that Cyanide & Happiness presents. If you enjoy some dark looking humor and the kind of cartoony look these devs know and love, you will love the experimental look that Rapture Rejects has to offer.
Sound
Like in any BR game, the sound is key to listening for your enemy and trying to sneak around to win it all. That isn’t the case in this BR game. With a tremendous Top-Down view on your side, there isn’t a real need to hear your surroundings. While scavenging around to find loot, you can listen to and see outside to make sure no one is coming around and trying to find your foes hiding in bushes around will come down to just sneaking around each one with funny quotes and noises that will come out of the world and your enemies. The funny, dark humor that Cyanide & Happiness brings us shows up during each match in this BR to give you an edge to keep moving forward. With the main combat noises like gunshots and hit shots not being key in this Battle Royale, you will still have fun with the little things that will linger in your ear during each match.
Replayability
With replayability being key in any Battle Royale. Rapture Rejects doesn’t 100% come through when you can’t even get into a match at times because of the low player count at this time. With the community pleading for Free-To-Play, and the developers trying their best to send out updates to help their case in giving the game more content and fixes to live up to the games price tag.
