Chip ‘N Clawz vs. The Brainioids Is a Co-op RTS with Chaotic “Overcooked” Energy – Hands-On Preview
Released Feb. 20th, 2025
Chip 'n Clawz vs. The Brainiods's jokey tone, combined with frantic levels overflowing with ruthless alien goons, reminded us a lot of the Overcooked series, which uses its seemingly simple mechanics and cheery art to disguise the friendships it will surely ruin in the coming hours. Similarly, Chip ‘n Clawz cleverly disguises its difficulty by being one of the most immediately approachable RTS games we’ve played, luring you into a false sense of security with its third-person action mechanics, but then hilariously kicks you in the face with demanding levels that require you to lean more and more into its complicated RTS mechanics a short time later.
