I jumped into R.E.P.O. with a group of friends and immediately felt that chaotic blend of tension and hilarity that so many players rave about. Especially once you're hauling fragile loot through tight corridors while monsters are hot on your trail. The physics‑based object handling makes each run feel unpredictable: one slip and that pricey item you’ve carefully carried can shatter, wiping out minutes of effort.

R.E.P.O. is fun solo, but it's way better with a squad. Most Redditors agree that playing it alone can be frustrating and unforgiving, especially when a horde of gnomes or a huntsman ambushes you unexpectedly.

The co‑op horror atmosphere is strong, with proximity voice comms adding to the tension as we scramble to strategize and stay alive. There are genuinely hilarious moments too, like when something knocks over a pile of fragile goods or a friend accidentally triggers a monster behind you.

Yet not everything is perfect: matchmaking is still missing, and sometimes lobbies are unstable, which has annoyed some players when trying to join friends.
