Forums » Smalltalk » AMA: Solo Lethal Company Expert

Heya. I've been playing Lethal for about a year now, long after it died out along with the 'friendslop' genre.

I never had any friends, though, or at least friends I've played games with. I started playing it with randoms, then didn't like that so I started playing alone. I have tons of hours and have gotten to the tenth quota solo about five or six times, which is an achievement. I want to start speed running, but I'm not nearly fast enough to make any leaderboards.

Feel free to ask me about the game and my experiences with it! I'd be happy to answer any and all you guys might have.

I've never heard of this game before. Can you tell us a bit about it?

Basically, you and up to three other people visit moons each day to collect scrap parts and garbage to sell. The amount you need to sell every three days is the Quota, and it scales with your progress. This quota keeps going up until you fail to complete it, and then you all die and have to start over

However, the moons are all populated with monsters that will try to kill you, making the task of collecting scrap much harder, from the Thumper which mercilessly chases you around to the Bracken that can snap your neck in a second.

The game isn't intended to be played solo, since the quota and monsters assume there are 4 people playing. That's why playing solo is not only very difficult, but very impressive if you can survive to higher quotas.
