Plot
A 4v4 party shooter where players will battle it out with foam
Cast
Made by Square Enix, and that just breaks my heart.
Verdict
There's no shortage of low life expectancy free multiplayer games on consoles (And PC) these days. Small communities, a wealth of microtransactions, very little actual content and the community pretty much flatlines within 3-6 months.
Foamstars is essentially one of those but made by an incredible studio, alas the game itself is no different from what you'd expect. Scantily clad girls, anime style and foam guns for some reason! The gimmick, well that's it basically. Different types of foam firing weapons, the ability to stack the foam to make platforms and the usual array of pvp modes.
Colorful and fast paced, but everything else is uninspired and entirely un-engaging.
Rants
You know the sad thing is that I've actually quite enjoyed a few of these types of "Throwaway" multiplayer game but there is zero point in getting invested as the servers will either be dead or turned off in a few months. Sadly we have such a wealth of options the gamer base is spread too thin, combine that with peoples non-existent attention span and such games don't stand a chance.
Breakdown
Some passable visuals
Very bland
Not much content
Really is a "Throwaway" game.
