Oct 27, 2016Game sucks. How this overrated bucket of afterbirth got a 76/100 is beyond me. If you want to buy this game I hope you enjoy the annoying wild goose chase.

Jan 3, 2017Ignore the hater, this is a good game, although it can be a bit frustrating at times.
The platforming ramps up in difficulty reasonably well. The puzzles are a bit obscure but will eventually reward even trial and error. I thought that the art style is charmingly retro.
Overall, an entertaining game but not as deep as Donut Games' other somewhat similar title "Traps & Gemstones".

Oct 6, 2016An homage to the classic 2D platform adventure games from the 8 and 16 bit era, from Super Mario Bros to Alex Kidd.

Sep 25, 2016While there's a lot that's odd about Vulture Island, I really like the game here. The puzzles are fetch quest type stuff, but their uses are just devious enough that they will make you feel stupid for not figuring it out sooner. And the whole game's clunkiness just kind of gives the game a particular character to it.

Sep 25, 2016I really wanted to like Vulture Island, especially since it was made by Donut Games, makers of the excellent Traps n' Gemstones. That, and the game wears a lot really great inspirational touchstones on its sleeve. Unfortunately though, I spent the majority of my time with the game dying repeatedly or looking at a walkthrough and rolling my eyes at puzzle solutions, which was not particularly fun or satisfying.
