    This game blows; it is very unfaithful to the original game on the GameCube. Tods game being bad also sucks because Nintendo relied on it to keep the franchise alive.

    This game blows. Almost everything in this game is bad, music, levels, controls, even the way you select the levels is bad!

    Gex is such a great game, it has everything you would want from Gex, from a animal theme board game, to tenis, Gex has everything, but my favorite mode was the one in wich you play as a robot, since it has rolling baybie!!!, 10 out of 10, would trow it in the toilet again

    Hey All, Scott Here, This game blows, *splash* In all seriousness, this game really does blow, a platform we is not what Chibi-Robo needed. I’ll be waiting at Chibi-Robo’s funeral along with Ness and Captain Falcon.

    This game overall blows. Its mechanics, stage select, and lack of story really makes it blow hard. It definitely aint no Gex, but got small charm. It deserves the toilet, but overall kinda playable, there is definitely worse games.

    Chibi-robo is one of those characters where he appears in several different games, and in every one, the game mechanics are changed. This incarnation of the metallic, tiny robo is very underwhelming to say the least. The original gamecube title had a really interesting mood, the characters were so strange and fascinating as well as absolutely hilarious at times.

This incarnation of the metallic, tiny robo is very underwhelming to say the least. The original gamecube title had a really interesting mood, the characters were so strange and fascinating as well as absolutely hilarious at times. Unfortunately, none of that is in this game. It works fine as a platformer. It's just very boring and repetitive. The levels lack variety and the catchy music from prior titles. Oh well, lets wait another 4 years for Chibi Robo: Sewer Adventures along with Federation Force... Expand

    Even the developers don't like this game. This game is lazy and generic, and is full of pointless things just to pad out the game. We hated it so much that we were embarrassed to show it at our big Digital Event, and we just showed it in a "Direct Micro". Lets just get this game rank to 0..

    This game has to be one of the worst games Nintendo has developed this year. Chibi-Robo!: Zip Lash has poor level design and also has NO replay value. Unlike Mario, The game is a slow-paced platformer. I'm a fan of 2D platformers and I enjoyed the first two Chibi-Robo games, Photo Finder/ Let's Go Photo! was okay, but Zip Lash has to be the worst. The music in some levels aren't asThis game has to be one of the worst games Nintendo has developed this year. Chibi-Robo!: Zip Lash has poor level design and also has NO replay value.

    This game really blows as it's the game that pretty much killed any chance for a real Chibi-Robo game. The Original on GCN was really wacky, fun, and creative. This game to me represents the creative bankruptcy that Nintendo experienced throughout 2015-2016. Ruined what could have been a great franchise.

    This is not only the worst Chibi-Robo game, it's the worst 3DS game, it's the worst Nintendo game, and it might very well be the worst game of all time.

    This game blows. Thats all. Crappy mechanics. Crappy gameplay. If you want a 2d platformer on the 3ds theres many better options. Poochytown

    This game blows. It barely takes from the actual franchise it's supposed to be based off, and it doesn't even stand on its own. Just play Gex instead.

    all the woz fans hit this website all "this game blows" and that may just be a meme, but they're not wrong, it really is one of the worst games I've played, just a sad experience

    I love gex. The original game was great, and the next game was perfect. Gex amiibo festival and Gex ultra smash were very hit or miss. It was great to see gex return to his platforming roots, but this game blows.

    This game actually blows. The levels go on for way too long and are also not interesting, controlling chibi-robo is not fun, not being allowed to choose which level you want to play is a stupid idea, and overall, it is one of the worst games ever published by Nintendo. Why can't they just go back to the style of the first Chibi-robo game on the Gamecube? Why did they have to make this gameThis game actually blows.

Why can't they just go back to the style of the first Chibi-robo game on the Gamecube? Why did they have to make this game a painfully generic 2d-platformer? Why would anyone want to buy this? Exactly. The few people that bought this game only got it to show their support for the Chibi-robo series, because they knew this was his last chance. Not because they wanted THE WORST 3DS GAME EVER MADE! THIS. GAME. BLOWS! Expand

    Grappling hooks are always fun; but boring levels and questionable design choices together with shabby product placement make this ten year anniversary of Chibi-Robo nothing more than a shrug. Better luck next time, lil'buddy.

    Zip Lash is a polished game but not as inspired and surprising as New Super Mario Bros., Donkey Kong Country or Yoshi’s Woolly World. [13/2015, p.74]

    Nintendo’s littlest hero misses the mark in his latest adventure. We still love the little bugger but we start to loathe his games. [dec. 2015 / page 068]
