  • Summary: Thumper is rhythm violence: classic rhythm-action, blistering speed, and brutal physicality.

    Despite the flawed control scheme on the mobile port, Thumper: Pocket Edition is a good way to introduce the game to those who haven't tried it before. The psychedelic visuals are rather mesmerizing, the music is soothing, and the challenge is there. It may not be the best game for those who get frustrated easily, but the sense of overcoming a level you've been stuck on is pleasing.

    Is it a good game? Yes. Is it a game that's going to slice the people who play it down the middle like, well, like a space beetle slicing through a bizarre interpretation of a hyperdrive trip infused with psychedelia? Yes. If you've read this review, I hope that you know which side of that line you're on. Because if you pick the game up and it turns out you're towards the screaming and never forgiving the game end of the spectrum, you've got a pretty bad three minutes waiting for you just down the line.

    Thumper is very much not my kind of game. If it’s yours, fine, but I still wouldn’t necessarily recommend it on mobile. There are some control and technical issues that hold it back, even if you like what this game is trying to do.
