Battle Royale games are dropping by the dozen, thanks to the popularity of PUBG and Fortnite. Despite how engaging these games are, they generally lack a convincing story for whatever in the world is happening to cause a bunch of people to murder others (in-game) while the playing field reduces in size. So it was a bit of a surprise that the new Cyanide & Happiness game, 'Rapture Rejects' does probably the best job to explain the premise. Of course that surprise hits you right after the fact that there is now a Cyanide & Happiness battle royale game.
The game is played in a top-down isometric view and you get the signature Cyanide & Happiness art style and dark humor. There are 50 players per match and the rest of the mechanics are pretty much like all other battle royale games. In Royal Rejects, God plans to rapture the good people to heaven and leave the bad one behind to burn. But seeing how the bad people are unhappy, He decides to lend one ticket to heaven to whoever survives the longest. And that is how you end up in Rapture Rejects.
The game gives you loads of character customisation options including skin colour, facial hair, hair and voice. You can also customise your outfits deciding to either wear cool thematic clothes or just run a rampage in your undies. Rapture Rejects does not give you an option to choose either a male or a female straight-up. Instead you get an option to add Boobs or Dong. You can add either of those to you character or none, or perhaps both; this is Cyanide & Happiness after all. The game plays like most browser based top-down isometric shooters that you can play for free. But it would be wrong to judge the game just now as it is still in early access and more lucrative things and improvements are bound to be added soon.
The game has been developed by Galvanic Games and published by tinyBuild and is in early access on steam. In case you plan to buy the game, it costs Rs 529 right now and the cost will go up post early access.
