Original review: The ONLY flaw with this game is the fact there's no way to buy an individual copy to ensure each friend only has one copy from me, not an extra free copy ;-)
(I have 2 friends to which I want to give the game. Don't really trust either of them to give the extra copy back)
in all other regards (minus the lack of adventure mode, the Teleportatato, and DLC), this game is just as good as Don't Starve, but better because you can play with friends!

edit 2022: positive review rescinded. I just learned that in January of last year, the company that develops the game was bought out by China's technology arm Tencent. Although "As part of this agreement, Klei retains full autonomy of creative and operations across all aspects of the studio, including projects, talent, and more.", that's just not good enough for me.

I wish I could get a refund, but since I can't, well, I have plenty of other games I can play. And yes, I realize boycotting doesn't mean much if I'm the only user doing it, so do me a favor would you?

I'm a bit late saying so, but I think I should also mention that I have nothing against Chinese people, in fact I'm sympathetic. It's really the CCP owning the game that has me up in arms/willing to boycott it.

I'm not normally one to get dramatic, but when a company sells out to a country like China, for any reason, under any terms... sorry, I can't stand idly by without at least doing something. Changing my review just happens to be the ONLY thing I'm able to do here.
