Join the food fight
RAWMEN is a silly-looking action video game wherein you can compete to become the best soup-slinging cook around. Developed by ANIMAL and published by tinyBuild, this adorable 3D multiplayer game is a third-person arena shooter that lets you weaponize food items in different hilarious game modes.
Highly reminiscent of games like Splatoon and Team Fortress 2, RAWMEN uses funny weapon designs and game objectives to keep things fresh in your matches. It offers both team and individual online PvP and lets you customize your character with a variety of cool and comedic accessories.
Soup up for the match
In RAWMEN, you play a semi-nude burly chef who uses a handy ladle and a big pot full of endless soup. In classic Splatoon style, you can use it to fling slippery soup onto the ground and slide around the sloping terrain to get around much faster. You can also jump around and use various food items with unique abilities to control your environment to your advantage.
The game offers online multiplayer of around 2 – 8 players and there are various game modes you can play with them. Claim Chowder, for one, is an area defense game in which you must protect your team’s chowder pot. The Meatball mode is the Capture the Flag mode but with a giant meatball. Meanwhile, Top RAWMEN is the King of the Hill mode but you have to collect precious Golden Bouillon Cubes.
You can play with strangers or play a private match with friends. The rewards you earn unlock various customization options for your silly chef so you can stand out. However, while the graphics of the game look cute and colorful, it can get pretty chaotic during matches due to how many items and visual elements there can be as you fight. It gets confusing most of the time.
A rad little shooter
All in all, RAWMEN is a great multiplayer game you can try out if you want something different from the usual shooter games with the usual weapons. Not only does this have a hilarious premise, but it has a variety of content and a character customizer that lets you bling up with the silliest of items. The only downside to it is that the matches can get chaotic and confusing.
