I love that series and I will say I wasn’t a huge fan of exodus at first, but I grew to love it. My main issue was that I like the metro part of the metro games, going up to the surface was always my least favorite part of the games, so when exodus came out, a game entirely about being above the surface, I wasn’t a fan.

But after a few years, I played it for real after playing the other games again, and there is so much good stuff in that game. Lots of new mechanics tthat were mostly pretty fun, and I really got around to enjoying the story. The way the story centers around a train and all the different characters on the train, getting new members and/or losing them as you progress across the countryside. All the different locations and the types of creatures and people you meet there.

In a story like this, where humanity is trapped in tunnels while the surface is uninhabitable, you almost have to have part of that story be about leaving the tunnels behind and finding life on the surface. I still wish the series had 2 or 3 more games in the tunnels before that exodus happens, but I didn’t get to make the games, so it’s not up to me. I’m glad I got to play it though, and I’m looking forward to playing it again sometime soon. I am incredibly interested in the new game too, looks like a lot of metro tunnels again, plus so much weird stuff going on in the trailers.
