    For those wanting a solid mobile platformer, consider dropping the five bucks on PewDiePie: Legend of the Brofist, as it has a kickass chiptune soundtrack, colorful levels, and tight touchscreen platforming.

    The level designs are a little loose at times, and if you're not interested in clearing every difficulty level or unlocking extras, it's over a bit quickly, but overall, I think it's a pretty enjoyable romp.

    If you see PewDiePie as an annoying bell-end who deserves a sceptic toe, you’re unlikely to shell out £3.99 on his game – even if its quality means you’d probably enjoy it much more than you do his videos...Equally, if you’re one of his fans, this is £3.99 well spent, with plenty of potential for replayability using the different characters and power-ups, as well as taking on the higher difficulty levels.

    That said, if you are a PewDiePie fan, Legend of the Brofist is stuffed with appearances and jokes you’ll adore.

    PewDiePie: Legend of the Brofist is a lot more confident when it's simply being a varied and frequently entertaining - if somewhat flawed - 2D platformer.

    I have given this game a great big zero. Mainly because of what it represents. It represents the decline in human intelligence. The massI have given this game a great big zero. Mainly because of what it represents. It represents the decline in human intelligence. The mass de-evolution of human beings! The collective of moronic sheep currently populating the planet, social media and the internet.

    What? You may ask. Seriously? How does a simple mobile game represent the stupidity in the world and the down fall of man?

    Well let me explain. Pewdiepie, the main character in the game is an obnoxious Youtuber who has risen to popularity due to his hordes of ever growing brain dead fans. He is a man who simply shouts and squeals loudly while playing video games and people seem to actually lap this up. Not out of irony or anything like that, no they actually find him funny.

    His insane posse of fans aggressively defend him as if he's the messiah. Yet I have not seen one video where he has deviated from his predictable shouty, squealy style which often ruins games. His fans are not gamers. They are people who want to be part of the culture for the fashion, kind of like what weeaboos are to Anime.

    His fans know nothing about games and started playing on consoles like the wii or xbox 360. These kids are groomed into liking him due to his 'epic bro fist' which is either a very creepy sexual move or a way to greet someone, I'm not entirely sure.

    Like hordes of zombies tweens around the world actually touch the screen with their fist as if they are really interacting with this drooling buffoon and make strange laser gun noises 'pewds pewds pewds'.

    It's almost like an odd brainwashing cult, led by this strange idiotic screaming man.

    So now he is cashing in on his herd of sheep and released a game ripping off every better retro game before it , which his tween fans will never have heard of. But will think is super cool, while wearing their T-shirts with images of 80's cassettes on them (which they've never seen either).

    And they indeed are buying it, and indeed rating it 10 out of 10.

    I'm merely trying to add balance to the world and rating it zero to stop the planet from imploding with stupidity.

    So maybe a butterfly effect will start and even reverse a few of these moronic minds who completely misunderstand comedy like Monty Python but laugh at 7 second vines of good looking people shouting random things or sharing the same memes over and over again!!!!

    Maybe, just maybe this zero rating will make just one of them think, so they stop watching and buying into this drivel and become a doctor, so in the future there may be hope for saving mankind from this terrible fate!!!!    … Full Review »
