In the middle of the month, you can prove your good heart in a new cooperative platformer on Steam because it will reward you in KarmaZoo. What this interesting concept is all about, you will find out in the trailer.
What kind of game is this? KarmaZoo is the new game from the developer Pastagames under the publisher Devolver Digital. It will be released on Steam on November 14, 2023 and costs you less than €10 at full price. Until November 28, 2023, you can even get KarmaZoo 25% cheaper.
KarmaZoo is a cooperative online platformer where you try to master the levels with up to 10 random players.
We have embedded the trailer for the game here for you:
What to expect: KarmaZoo is a pixelated and quite chaotic platformer, which presents you with some interesting puzzles, as already seen in the trailer.
You must solve these puzzles together. And the trailer already reveals the twist of the game. Because in KarmaZoo, your good deeds are rewarded and often ensure that you master the level as a group.
In the trailer, you see an example of a player who sacrifices himself and jumps on sharp spikes. Because at that point, a small gravestone is created, which all players can then use as an additional platform to cross the sharp spikes.
Such good deeds are also not left unrewarded in KarmaZoo. Not only do you advance in the level, but you also collect karma points that you can use for new characters and abilities.
In total, the developers promise 50 playable characters, which as seen in the trailer come in all shapes and sizes. From a brave wolf to a small owl or a cheerful anchor, you can experience a variety of characters.
In addition to the levels that you master online with random allies, KarmaZoo offers a local co-op mode. In this mode, you face your friends in a competition full of mini-games, which are perfect to play on a shared screen.
Players consider KarmaZoo the perfect game to make new friends
What are the reactions? In the comments under the trailer (via YouTube), users generally agree that KarmaZoo could become a good game, especially appealing to fans of online co-op.
For example, user user-ye1xx8ov4m writes that he can hardly wait because the game looks so fun and that he loves the idea of playing with complete strangers. He also shares the same opinion as user zeezenfrozen that KarmaZoo would be perfect for making new friends.
