Review analysis summary (Reviewed Oct 28, 2026)

Raccoons causing chaos in co-op define Dumpster Gang (Demo), which scores 86.4 from 131 analyzed reviews.

👍 Strengths

60 reviews say it is fun and cute, and some played it with a partner and recommend it. 51 praise the co-op, describing friends causing chaos together and laughing the whole time, and a few say it also works solo. Multiplayer appears in 57% of analyzed reviews and scores +3.9. 6 love the visuals, with the cute raccoon models standing out. Story & World scores +2.9.

👎 Where it falls short

8 reviews comment on the difficulty, where some feel it spikes fast as enemies hit hard, while others find the exterminator too easy to outplay. 8 call the balance unfair, citing a stronger exterminator on the second map, stamina that drains too fast and an enemy that seems to see through walls. 7 find the movement and climbing feel awkward, and some say the weapons all feel the same. Gameplay scores +0.6, and Tech & Support scores −0.1.
