Looking for a team-based shooter that doesn’t have the added pressure of saving the world from terrorists, robots, or multiverse variants? Foamstars may be exactly what you need to just kick back, relax, and spray opponents with foam.
At first glance, Foamstars may seem like a Splatoon knock-off. However, Square Enix’s party shooter has managed to set itself apart from other similar games through its unique modes and gameplay mechanics.
