Extremely tightly-designed platform-fighter that runs where Smash Bros Ultimate walks; though it's lacking in single-player content, it's lightning-fast, fluid movement makes playing the game an absolute blast: even with the small roster, no two people play a character the same way. Rollback netcode, great tutorials and a simple, yet striking animation style seal the deal!
Additionally, I would be remiss to not mention the games Steam Workshop scene: while counting mods in reviews is usually frowned upon, I think I'd be doing the game a disservice to not mention it has the biggest modding scene of any fighting game EVER, to the point where four modded characters got added to the base cast (not to speak of the NEW GAMEMODE that was added from mods, too!). There's thousands upon thousands of characters, stages and so much more, and they fucking rock.

Very simple to understand, yet engaging, deep, incredibly unique and fast-paced gameplay, check. Cool graphics, check. A distinct roster of characters? Great cosmetics (seriously the emotes in this game are godlike)? I wish this game was more popular.
We let Omega Strikers down, but it's a masterclass of a MOBA. I can't wait to see Odyssey's next outing--but in the meantime, GO STRIKE!

If played on a console, this is probably a 3.5/5.
As a huge Harry Potter fan (fuck JKR), I wanted to like this game a lot more than I did but I struggled with it due to the bugginess of the PC port and the game's last 33% getting repetitive. The game is super fun for the first act due to you getting so many new things to do all at once, but as it goes on and you unlock pretty much all the spells, it does get dreary. This is not helped by the main dungeons being all really repetitive (which is odd given how extremely fleshed out some sidequests are). The bugs in the game were mostly annoying, but there was a bug I ran into twice where I'd just fall through the world that I was worried I'd have to restart my save to get over. Pretty unacceptable for 60$.
All that being said, the characters are alright, some pretty well-written, voice acting is nice, the immersion is fantastic, the graphics are pretty good and the core gameplay loop is actually really damn solid; no notes on the spell-slinging for me.
