    The problem with Fall Guys is not the current state of the game, or the servers, or the bugs. The problem is that it is fundamentally a bad game. It is a game that is broken in its core mechanics.

It is a game that is broken in its core mechanics.

    In fact, Fall Guys is an extremely lazy game. The game design is broken, but everything can be justified by "it's the concept lol, it has to be terrible so you fall". This makes it, at core, neither a PvP nor a PvE game, but a PvG game. You play versus the gameplay, your worst enemy.

    The camera never lets you see enough and gives you a terrible idea of the perspective, the physics engine is broken beyond repair, the collisions are randoms, the actions are random, the effects of various of the games' contraptions are random. The game has no logic whatsoever in most of its minigames. It all boils down to how much the physics engine is going to want to work today, if at all (and most of the times, it won't).

    On top of that, the game suffers from a terrible reverse-rubber-banding effect. In party games, a common feature is the rubber-band effect: if you're lagging behind, the game offers you a bonus to give you some chance to get back in game. Fall Guys features the opposite of that: the more you're lagging behind, the more the game mechanics' will work against you and prevent you from advancing.

    All this makes for a terrible game that just does not work at all. There is no fun in playing Fall Guys. Yes, you can learn to be good at it, but even then, you'll spend most of your time raging because the game stubbornly refuses to obey your command. You think this is a multiplayer battle royale? You're wrong. It may as well be single-player. Because the challenge in this game is hardly ever the other players. The challenge in this game is the game engine. A challenge that never becomes enjoyable.    … Expand

    The developers promised a second season pass for everyone who passes the first season. But as soon as the second season came out, they instantly forgot about that and are now asking for money for it. This is absolutely unacceptable behavior. Keep your promises if you declare it!

    The game developers banned a ton of people for no reason and pushed the entire situation under the rug. Its been 2 years now, and they've done nothing about the situation.

    Fall Guys feel like molasses. Fall Guys feels like waiting at the DMV, and then the DMV closing and you were the last in line. Fall Guys feels like getting glass stuck in your leg, but, leaving it in and bleeding to death. Fall Guys feels like taking a **** but, wiping is optional. Fall Guys feels like driving to McDonald's and asking for a square burger.

    After switching to F2P , it became impossible to buy normal skins without donating . Old players were given 3 terrible skins that no one will play with. Money spent just like that

    Bought the game(for full price btw), played 4 hours and was like i will play this later more and then comes the news it goes F2P and people who BOUGHT the game got only stupid skins instead of something of real value.

    Also needs Epic account, when i bought the game that was not needed to play.

    Valve declined the refund.

    The only RNG based battle royale on the market. It's safe to say that the only reason you will ever win will be because someone else got effed over by the awful physics.

To win, you need to be very lucky and be very precise, even a jump and a millimeter to the side can make you lose and the sluggish movements of the character make it terribly difficult. The game does not de-stress at all, on the contrary - after playing the round, I almost smashed the keyboard. I do not recommend them, there are much better games and free ones… Expand

    Over-rated game

    Pros - Fun when playing solo races. -many people that play the game -lots of competitions/ popular game in 2020 -funny map and quick modes -cute Cons -Overpriced ( game should be free for what the base game is worth) -So many round for one game it takes longer than it should -Wins in the game are not rewarding.

    The game is competitive and random at the same time, so you cannot really win just because you are good in Fall Guys, in some levels it's ALL about randomness and luck.

For example Door Dash or Tip Toe. Your start position also matters, especially in See Saw, where if you start too far away you have great chances to fall in the first set of platforms and even lose the game right from the beginning without a way to recover. Also people with ping higher than 80 will struggle to win in modes that involve interacting with other players like Tail Tag and its variations (the team version of Tail Tag and the final one that I don't remember the name of it), in your POV it'll look like your opponents are able to steal your tail while being a reasonable distance away from you but still manage to get the tail while you have to come really close for the server to count the grab. tl;dr great concept but kinda poor gameplay experience in the end. I really hope that in a month or so I'll be able to raise my score for this game at least to nine if they fix all the stuff that I've described in this review. If you want a game that's fun and where you can randomly win by just playing and not tryharding then why are you still reading?

    Devs don't give a **** about this game because the hype has ended, none of the problems described in the review got fixed, in the end we've got a new season that broke a finale gamemode, it took the devs a whole week to 'hotfix' the mode and they've added 4 new ones two of which are boring as ****    … Expand

    UPDATE: Steam denied me a refund for the game despite the above changes, so now I am stuck with a game that no longer runs properly on my monitor, nor can I use it on my primary OS partition.

    I've played this game for around 60 hours. It has potential to be great, but the amount of cheaters combined with the inability by the developers to do something about it really weakens the game. Half the matches I play I encounter a cheater. Developer has stated they're doing something about it, but so far it's only getting worse instead of better.

On some games I see 2 cheaters in the finals and it takes ages to end because they can both fly endlessly.

I mean, how hard is it to detect a player that flies or gets to the finish line in 10 seconds, and ban him immediately. Seriously, I'm not playing until it's fixed. Sick of the lies.… Expand

    With just a few small additions, such as private matches and cross-play, this would quite simply become one of, if not the best party games available on current platforms. It can’t be underestimated how difficult it is to create something quite so accessible and fun simultaneously.

    Fall Guys is more like a hilarious comedy picture directed by Mediatonic Studios, and reminds us that video games are not just about winning over other players, and sometimes its about having fun with family and friends.
