The co-op heist game is currently 80% off in the Steam sale
Whilst it was well received by critics, sold over 275,000 copies and I did enjoy my first hands-on experience with the game,Monacosadly never hooked me in. Maybe it was the lack of regular co-op buddies or some confusing level design but I wish I could give the game another shot. A big, free update will maybe encourage me to do exactly that.
Developer Poketwatch Games has posted anupdate on its blogshowing some interesting stats, specifically a breakdown of how many players were reaching the end ofMonaco‘s chapters and indeed finishing the game. Realizing it may have had some issues in communicating its mechanics to the players, Pocketwatch has gone back and streamlined levels in a new enhanced mode.
Players who enjoyed the originalMonacolevels can still play the Classic mode but I’m certainly happy the developers went and had another look atMonacoand worked out what could be done to encourage players to keep playing. It’s interesting to a developer take the scalpel to its own creation and do some editing and tweaking after release. There’s also new leaderboards and PvP options included too andMonacoiscurrently 80% off in the Steam sale at £2.39/$2.99so even with my reservations, it’s still worth purchasing.
