Stowaway
Stowaway builds its social deduction around ten-player rounds: sailors repair the ship and vote, while stowaways try to eliminate the crew without being found. It suits groups that can gather online and want discussion through voice chat as part of play. At $4.99 from 
Steam, the purchase makes most sense when you can regularly assemble players; the central appeal relies on having others in the round. At $4.99 from Steam, weigh the cost against your budget and how readily you can bring players together for online rounds.

Alright so i'm going to give everyone the detailed description of the game that is unbiased. Lets start with the pro's of the game - in game voice chat - very simplistic design, controls and gameplay - very straight forward, not needing much/any explanation - i enjoy the verticality of the game adding a very different style of some gameplay - 1st person gives you a different feel for the imposter, survivor type game that hasn't been explored much Now sadly the very many con's i have come across - Voice throughout the map if you are on a different floor or not near the people talk becomes extremely muffled to the point it is just a bunch of noise clogging the rest of the noises in the game. - Very low player base at the current moment. very few servers that you could join and all are on NA east, if there is already 1-2 10 player servers chances are you either have to join a game with way less people or wait for a spot to open in the full servers - a lot of the time the players stay together because the tasks are all the same just repair the holes in the walls of the boat and you'll make it to the island. makes the game very hard for the stowaways (imposters) to be able to make the kills without being caught right away. - The setup of the boat is very claustrophobic, once you start going to the other floors you have so many rooms to flow throughout that are very small and kind of just seems as if the walls to the rooms were placed to just fill up space in the boat as some/most of the rooms don't have any holes that you would need to patch - collision in the game, if you have someone blocking a doorway you would need them to move out of the way to get by and if you partner this with the single person doorways and the small single person hallways makes it hard if one person is trying to get 1 way and another is going the opposite direction - some of the movement and collision with objects throughout the map feels a bit clunky, sometimes you'll be able to jump over something other times you are going to get stuck some ladders are backwards and you need to jump from the ladder over the hole and you could fall through and back to the floor you are trying to get up from This is about all the con's i could see as of now with the very bit of game time i have played, now some bugs i have encountered as well. - sometimes voting someone off with give you the person of the previous player voted off for example if person A was voted out first then person C was voted out second the screen would say person A was voted off again - meters to land, 1 lobby i have come across had 3,001,000 meters until the boat would get to land, in this same lobby the boat was very glitchy spazzing the players on the boat and not being able to move much at all and the water would turn grainy almost pixelated. Now finally i think i have multiple ways to fix some of these issues and just have some input on some other smaller things that don't and wouldn't affect gameplay but maybe just some Q.O.L improvements. Let me know what you think in the comments about the review and if you would like to hear what i have to say about the improvements on the game etc that i think could help the game. This is in no shame to the game or the game dev's and creator this is purely just things i have come across and would like to help the game improve since my excitement through tik tok.Show moreShow less

This is hard to say but its the truth. Its hard to get into a lobby, you basically have to select East America no matter where your from. Once you get into a game its very glitchy and hard to see what your doing (there is no 3rd person or FOV slider). You pretty much have to stay in a group or you die instantly. You cant customise controls. This game is incomplete at best and should definantly not be released yet. Edit: I get that this is an early release game, this is mostly meant as constructive criticism and setting the expectation for people who are interested in this gameShow moreShow less
