"Working together right next to each other really brings back the magic of couch gaming."
- Chris Carter, Destructoid
"...it's a really fun way to engage with another live human, up-close and personal."
- Rick Broida, CNET
"You play it with someone, anywhere, and it actually brings you closer together..."
- Chris Priestman, Kill Screen
"...sending bullets across to someone else’s phone as you sit opposite them has a curious sense of technological magic to it."
- Chris Charlton, Kaijupop
