    With rounds only lasting 15 minutes at most — and that’s if you make it to the final round — Fall Guys is a delightful bite of fun that soothes the itch for a battle royale, without forcing you to think too hard. There is a bit of a random element to the game, especially since you never know how your competitors will react to giant falling fruit or huge hammers knocking your guys around, so the ultra competitive players who just want to win at any cost may get frustrated, but don’t let that stop you. With new stages to be added in coming updates, Fall Guys is already cementing itself in the “favorites” section of my Steam library. [Polygon Recommends]

    Problem is, all this wears thin fast. After a couple of hours, I’d already got to the point where seeing certain maps crop up made my poor jellified heart sink. Within a few more hours, my heart looked more like stone. Saying that feels monstrous but it’s true...I’d still heartily recommend Fall Guys in its current form though, because those first few hours were such a treat.

    I don’t see the game having the quarantine staying power of something like Animal Crossing unless developer Mediatonic adds dozens of challenges to prevent repetition. (Side note: the company’s overly thirsty social media presence almost turned me off to the game before I was able to play it, so engage with Fall Guys tweets at your own risk.) But for now, at least before Twitch’s most popular streamers ditch it and go back to Call of Duty, Fall Guys is the perfect game for a horrible moment in time.

    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. The game is like Wipeout but if you were playing as a small litlle marshmallow dude. This game is made to be easy to play, and hard to master (looking at you, See Saw) the servers can be a bit weird but just return to the main menu/confirm and you'll be good.… Full Review »

    The servers have been a bit dodgy on there release but I am sure they will improve n them soon and I don't believe its fair to hate on thisThe servers have been a bit dodgy on there release but I am sure they will improve n them soon and I don't believe its fair to hate on this game because of its servers cause I do believe they are attempting to fix them.

    This game is fun with friends but if you are competitive it will most likely not be for you. I have friends who have played this and they are very competitive and they were not fans.

    I can put it this way. If you are playing the game to win you will being to hate this game very slowly but if you are just here to have fun with your friends you will love this game.    … Full Review »
