Cross And Crush

Cross And Crush

Updated 26/1/21

Since I last reviewed, game has been fixed, with that aside, the game still becomes a grind to play within minutes. To unlock all the characters is a sheer headache as the game does not reward you very well with coins, and the achievements of needing to get one thousand, five thousand and 10 thousand coins is just tedious. Achievements like this, NEVER enrich your experience with a game. They just make you despise it and get angry (cross) and will make you want to smack the developers head in (crush).

In this game you use A and D to tell your animal which way to go as the vehicle it is pulling destroys stuff in a lame way and you’re being chased by cops. Somehow Tap By Tap managed to make destroying a city and killing cops boring. I wouldn’t even recommend this if they paid you €2.

Eggcelerate!

Eggcelerate!

Tim Beaudet’s, Eggcelerate!, brings a spin on racing games, where your objective is to finish the level without dropping your egg. A novel twist on the classic egg and spoon races, that as kids we are too familiar with, with just as much frustration.

From the sound effects to the music, it is a quirky and fun little game, that will certainly test your patience.

It didn’t take me long to realize that this game is impossible to play with a keyboard, so word of advice, unless you have nimble fingers and a keyboard that allows for great reaction times, then do yourself a favour and grab a controller, and have some fun.

Real player with 50.2 hrs in game

Eggcelerate! is a game where you can sink your teeth, playing hours on end trying to beat the developer’s time.

Opposed to other games, the times set by the developer are very challenging!

If that wasn’t enough, you can try and compete on speedrun.com/eggcelerate !

Even if you’re not that of a hardcore gamer, this game is still a great content.

The many puns, silly sounds and overall aesthetic that cracks you up every time you play.

A solid game to try if you have a couple of hours to spare.

DIRT 5

DIRT 5

–——————————————————–

WARNING: do not buy the Amplified Edition but go for the Standard game instead. To this day it’s unclear what the extra benefits of Amplified are gonna be. They already released a car DLC (Porsche Macan) that isn’t even part of the Amplified Edition and in a recent video interview with the dev director on the DIRT YT channel it’s stated that even the Standard game is gonna get extra free content. I still like the game but so far the extra money I paid for the Amplified Edition feels like a waste.

Real player with 80.8 hrs in game

TL;DR

  • Dirt 5 is really good with some caveats. If you’re looking for something in the vein of the previous DiRT games, you’ll likely be disappointed. But if you enjoy arcade offroad racers hearkening back to the PS2/Xbox era, you should definitely check this out at some point, most likely on sale.

Pros, Cons, and Meh(s):

PROS

  • Wide range of car disciplines, from rallycross spec cars to 80s rally to trucks to buggys. All of them feel fast, responsive and just fun to drive.

  • Graphics are really solid, night time lighting is especially nice.

Offroad Mania

Offroad Mania

I can’t remember how I came across this game, but I am glad I did.

The Gameplay is straight forward, you spawn on a platform that is suspended in air and have to reach the finish line without falling off. The game also offers collectible trophies as an additional challenge.

You can choose if you want to play “easy” mode or “hard” mode, the latter requires you to collect all 3 trophies per level before continuing. The 60 individual levels provide a increasing difficulty level, the only aspect I didn’t like about the choice of level design is the inversion of all levels starting from level 61. You are playing through the game again but with reversed levels.

Real player with 110.2 hrs in game

Addicting indie game where you have to traverse various obstacles to drive across the finish line

Pros

→ fun physics

→ well-balanced achievements

→ regular updates

→ different modes

→ low price

→ front and rear vehicle modification

→ great sounds

→ trading card drops

Neither

→ gameplay gets slightly tedious after a while
