WhatToGame Verdict

8.6WTG score

Our take.

Lethal Company pretends to be a horror game and then turns into one of the funniest games you can play with friends. Whatever is terrifying when it happens to you is usually hilarious to everyone listening to you panic, and five minutes later the roles reverse. The loot is almost beside the point — play it with friends, keep voice chat on, and honestly record your sessions because something stupid enough to remember will eventually happen.
