About Sweep Squad
Sweep Squad is a chaotic co-op arcade shooter from Nowhere Games that drops 1-4 players into a frantic battle against hordes of enemies. Released on December 31, 2026, it positions you as a rodent squad member tasked with clearing levels by sweeping away foes. The game blends fast-paced action with quirky charm, as you juggle sub-weapons and overtime mechanics to maximize your score. Set in a minimalist, stylized world, it prioritizes accessibility over depth, making it ideal for quick sessions or group play.
Gameplay
You control a mouse-like character armed with a vacuum cleaner that both moves and attacks. The core loop involves sweeping enemies into piles, then using sub-weapons like shockwaves or tornadoes to obliterate them. Overtime extends levels for higher rewards, but waves grow increasingly dense. Multiplayer encourages teamwork, players can chain attacks or cover each other’s blind spots. Controls are responsive but limited, focusing on movement and sweeping. Sessions average 15-20 minutes, with chaotic boss fights and unlockable gadgets adding variety. The 20-30 hour campaign is padded by replayable co-op challenges.
What Players Think
Sweep Squad holds a 78% community rating with 72% of players finishing the main story. Average playtime is 18 hours, though 34% quit before 10 hours citing repetitive combat. The game’s “Fun” score is 8.1/10, but “Depth” drops to 5.7. Over 60% of reviews label it “Addictive but shallow,” praising its accessibility but criticizing lack of customization. Achievement completion is 89%, with 43% earning the “Perfect Sweep” platinum. The most common mood is “Excited” (62%), followed by “Annoyed” (28%).
PlayPile's Take
Sweep Squad is a solid pick for fans of casual co-op action, offering 15-20 hours of chaotic fun at a $29.99 price point. While its mechanics don’t evolve much past the first 10 hours, the game’s charm and pick-up-and-play sessions make it worth a try. Skip it if you prefer tactical depth over twitch reflexes. The 32 achievements are easy but rewarding, especially for multiplayer groups. Not impressive, but effective for a quick power-up fix.
