Just Die Already is a goofy sandbox game where you are free to spend your time causing havoc to the inhabitants that call you a filthy boomer, while not fearing the loss of limbs or your life. There are no limits or restrictions to the amount of fun you can have in this game and hours will fly by when terrorizing the inhabitants of different locations in a very violent Benidorm Bastards style. The graphics and sounds are decent but nothing to write home about

- 5.8Just Die Already with its launch on consoles is a great open-world game within the first couple of hours. Within time its fun factor begins to deteriorate, and there just isn’t much to laugh at anymore. The humor has just gone stale. The difficulty in its controls and lack of features doesn’t help its cause.
- 6.0All in all, I had a lot of fun during the journey leading to writing this Just Die Already review. The developers of this game put a lot of love into it, despite what it tries to show off. Loads of content, fresh ideas, and smooth (as smooth as it could be anyway) controls make this game a delight.
- 4.0A word of warning, though. Maybe it’s the fact that I’m in my mid-30s, but after spending time playing Just Die Already, my social media timelines all of a sudden started showing sponsored ads from AARP and other companies that advertise to an older demographic. Now, I just want to watch some Lawrence Welk and put some Werther's Originals in a candy dish on my coffee table. Get off my lawn.
- 8.0Just Die Already is bright and colorful as well, and it’s easy to pass the time by just wandering and getting into trouble. It succeeds at what it sets out to do. Sure, it doesn’t have tight, rewarding gameplay, but it doesn’t need it. It does have scenarios where old people can get turned into piles of flesh by swarms of bees, though.
- It's fantastic fun in short bursts, silly, but structured well enough to offer you a challenge if that's what you're looking for. I'd recommend grabbing a couple of buddies and seeing what chaotic exploits you can get up to. It's certainly worth the time — especially at the game's price point — even if it's not the kind of thing that you can sit down to play for hours at a time.
Gamer reviews
The game is full of ridiculous stuffs to do but I didn't find much humor in it although I loved it's depth. For me its more like third person sandbox game with good mix of mayhem, exploration & puzzle. Completing its challenges & bucket list unlocks wide variety of usable item and its worth it. Environmental interaction is great and what I liked most about this game is its great use of color palette. Ragdoll physics is fine but game becomes/looks buggy as hell sometimes (I know its intentional) and its huge downside is clunky weapon/item control which sometimes makes completing a bucket list objective frustrating specially prime deliverer objective. But I recommend this game. (Note: Never use vehicles in this game controls are shit)
