Gameplay
Totally Reliable Delivery Service gameplay consists of 1-4 players working together using various methods to deliver packages from a starting location to highlighted areas on the map. These methods include hand delivery, vehicles, trampolines, and rocket ships.[3] The difficulty of the game comes from battling the chaotic nature of ragdoll physics and the limitations of only being able to hold one object in each hand. Teamwork is encouraged as players are rewarded for successful package deliveries.[4] Players need to deliver the packages carefully, as significant damage can cause the package to explode. Players cannot die in the game unless they fall into water.[5]

Reception
Reception
Totally Reliable Delivery Service received "mixed or average" reviews according to Metacritic.[13]
IGN compared the game to Goat Simulator and Human: Fall Flat, and wrote that it was "shambolic by design in order to derive maximum humour from the resulting unpredictability". He, however, remarked that the game was "is just as likely to trigger fits of laughter as it is to spark fits of anger".[14] Nintendo Life strongly criticized the game's controls and visuals, adding that they "can't imagine anyone genuinely enjoying it", and disliked the game's implementation of downloadable content.[15]
