Mar 4, 2020No.. just no. I hate it.. it's just not fun. The races are the worst and it appears that that is one major part of the game so no. Not my type of game. It also looks terrible which makes it even less fun to play for me.
I don't understand where all the positive steam-reviews come from. -
Dec 24, 2018De pouco vale ter um jogo esteticamente belo se o seu gameplay é repetitivo, monótono e insípido. Oscar Brittain parece infelizmente não tê-lo percebido a tempo, e Desert Child acabou por se tornar mais um indie bonito e extraordinariamente raso.

CD-ActionMar 25, 2019This relaxing arcade game with some light micromanagement gave me the joy of figuring out its mechanics by myself and kept me blissfully stuck in the “one more race syndrome”. [02/2019, p.46]

Jan 13, 2019A decent little game, tightly designed with some laughs along the way, as well as offering really good audio and visual design. However, it does fall down under more prolonged scrutiny, with undercooked world-building and a tendency to push you towards grinding out money by means of repetition meaning that some may lose interest before reaching the finale.

Jan 11, 2019Desert Child is a real tribute to some of the greatest in 90s pop culture, and it is also a good and innovative racing game.
