Community Review: Friday the 13th

There aren’t too many asymmetric multiplayer games kicking around, so when one pops up it tends to get a lot of attention. And when that same game happens to star Jason Vorhees, it gets even more attention.

Launching last week, Friday the 13th pits six counsellors against Jason Vorhees, with the former scrounging for items and weaponry so they can avoid the undead serial killer himself. Players can also play as Jason though, teleporting throughout the woods and becoming stronger as the night grows.

Having done the rounds through Kickstarter, Friday the 13th‘s launch has been pretty murky so far. I’ve seen players complain a fair bit about gamebreaking bugs, issues with the progression system, problems with crashing and unreliable servers.

Have you picked up Friday the 13th, and if so, what platform?
