My fucking GOD<\/strong>. This game has made me scream and made my heart beat so fast that I thought it would break through my skin and start doing jumping jacks in front of me. I wouldn\u2019t be able to see it because I would be fucking dead, but you get the point.<\/span><\/p>\n

Anyway, if you want a scary but fun game to play with your friends, you should play this game.<\/span><\/p>\n

I started playing this game back in September and I think I played with some people for about a week straight. I don\u2019t regret it one bit because I am a lover of scary games. I love getting my adrenaline running and my heart racing. I don\u2019t like the after-effects, where I feel like I could pass out or pass away, but it’s worth it. (that sounds so bad omg please don\u2019t take that out of context).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

ANYWAYS<\/strong> if you guys haven\u2019t heard of \u201cLethal Company,\u201d I understand. I didn\u2019t either but my boyfriend introduced it to me and asked to play with him and his friends so I said yes. No regrets, none at all.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But to give you a description of \u201cLethal Company,\u201d it\u2019s a cooperative survival-horror game where you work for a company and have to meet a quota to survive. You go to these different moons which have items you can find and scrap for some money. On these moons, there are some scary fucking monsters.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you want a more detailed description, you can find \u201cLethal Company\u201d on Steam to find some more information.\u00a0 <\/span>https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/1966720\/Lethal_Company\/<\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Yes, this game is available on Steam and if you want to play it, you HAVE<\/strong> to play with friends. Here are some reasons why:<\/span><\/p>\n

1) makes it much more fun<\/strong><\/p>\n

2) makes everything easier (so you can be lazy)<\/strong><\/p>\n

3) you can scared shitless with one another (bonding moment)<\/strong><\/p>\n

As of October 16, 2024, this game has 97% of the 353, 363 reviews for \u201cLethal Company\u201d of overwhelming positive reviews.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ll tell you a bit more about this game.<\/span><\/p>\n

Background<\/b><\/h2>\n

You, you sad poor soul, work for the Company. Your job entails one thing; collect scrap from abandoned moons to meet the Company\u2019s profit quota. You can gain money and from there, buy things like different suits, teleporters (to teleport your friend’s destroyed corpse), and some other things as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s pretty simple and there’s one thing you must never do. DO NOT MISS QUOTA!<\/strong> You will get fired (they will kill you).<\/span><\/p>\n

When you play with friends, it makes it easier to meet the quotas. You can chat with them when near them and see their location from the ship\u2019s computer. If they aren\u2019t moving, well sorry for your loss.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Once you have met a quota, you get another quota. You keep doing this until you can’t meet it, so ultimately, you die anyway.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Moons<\/b><\/h2>\n

There are several moons (about 13) to visit that range in difficulty, items to scrap, and monsters that can spawn and devour your fucking body. I won’t go too into detail but if you want to know a bit more, you can take a look at this Wiki page, <\/span>https:\/\/lethal-company.fandom.com\/wiki\/Moons<\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There are 3<\/strong> different difficulties on these moons.<\/span><\/p>\n

Easy<\/b><\/h2>\n

Just as it\u2019s sad, it’s easy. On these moons, they are pretty safe but have very little loot and a small amount of monsters.<\/span><\/p>\n

The easy moons are:<\/span><\/p>\n

41-Experimentation<\/strong><\/p>\n

220-Assurance<\/strong><\/p>\n

56-Vow<\/strong><\/p>\n

Intermediate<\/b><\/h2>\n

On these moons, they are a bit more dangerous and tend to have a little more loot and monsters than the easy moons.<\/span><\/p>\n

These intermediate moons are:<\/span><\/p>\n

21-Offense<\/strong><\/p>\n

61-March<\/strong><\/p>\n

20-Adamance<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hard<\/b><\/h2>\n

Self explanatory. This is hard. They experience outside weather conditions, dangerous monsters but a lot of loot.<\/span><\/p>\n

These hard moons are:<\/span><\/p>\n

85-Rend<\/strong><\/p>\n

7-Dine<\/strong><\/p>\n

8-Titan (I fucking hate this map)<\/strong><\/p>\n

68-Artifice<\/strong><\/p>\n

5-Embrion<\/strong><\/p>\n

44-Liquidation<\/strong><\/p>\n

Items to scrap<\/strong><\/h2>\n

These items range from gold bars to stop signs to soccer balls rolling around the moon. Now some of these items, you can use to help save yourself or for you to use in general.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, a stop sign. You can use these to FUCKING KILL THOSE MONSTERS.<\/strong> You can also use it to kill your friends but you didn’t hear it from me.<\/span><\/p>\n

Flashlights can be bought on your ship and I can promise you, that you will want one of these. I swear. They can be scrapped for money too but I would definitely not sell these.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Monsters<\/b><\/h2>\n

There are loads of different monsters. I won\u2019t mention all of them (keep it a little interesting for you), but I\u2019ll mention some of my favorites (I hate all of them).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Coil-Head<\/b><\/h2>\n

This monster is so silly. Like actually I laugh. This motherfucker is like a mannequin with short arms, a destroyed torso and their face is so funny looking (looks like they are screaming).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

How does it kill you? If you are not looking at it, it will move so fast and literally kill you. So if you are playing with friends, try to have one of them look at them (choose someone you trust).<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Masked<\/b><\/h2>\n

This motherfucker is so silly, I swear guys I can\u2019t help but laugh. If you pick up this mask DO NOT HOLD IT TO YOUR FACE<\/strong>. There\u2019s a good chance it will take over you and then it can go and kill your friends.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Old Bird<\/b><\/h2>\n

I actually hate this monster so much like OH MY GOD<\/strong>. There is nothing anyone could say to convince me this monster is not the scariest thing ever.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

They have this light spotlight and will use it to find you. Once they do, they will start launching rockets at you. If you are too close to them, they can and most likely burn you alive.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Eyeless Dog<\/b><\/h2>\n

Yeah, I also hate these bitches. Like actually fuck y\u2019all. If they catch your ass, good luck. You are now their personal chew toy and will bite your ass and shake back and forth (which ultimately kills you).<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How to survive playing with friends:<\/b><\/h2>\n

The best advice I could give y\u2019all, play with people you like. Another one, <\/span>PLAY WITH PEOPLE YOU TRUST.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Playing with people who you think might get you killed, will most likely have you killed. Believe me, I know.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

That doesn\u2019t mean you couldn\u2019t be a little deceiving.<\/span><\/p>\n

Before I finish this up, I hope you guy’s enjoy some of the funniest moment’s I’ve had with some people I’ve played with!<\/p>\n
