    Revenge of the Savage Planet was a blast to play, and even more fun just sitting back and watching the game’s many hilarious cutscenes. Full of absurdist humor, slapstick visual comedy and a genuine sense of adventure, this game took me by surprise and got me hooked.

    Take on alien creatures big and small as you try to find your way home in this sequel that improves on the original in almost every way.

    Impressive efforts with a few noticeable problems holding them back. Won't astound everyone, but is worth your time and cash. Revenge of the Savage Planet is a wild, colorful space adventure packed with quirky humor and chaotic exploration. Co-op play enhances the experience, and the addictive build customization keeps you engaged. While combat can be overwhelming at times, the fun, unpredictable nature of the game makes it hard to put down.

    With four new planets to explore, coorful visuals and occasionally aggressive humor, Revenge of the Savage Planet is just as fun as the first one. But the monotonous combat mechanics and enemies that attack you almost non-stop can get tiresome after a while.

    Revenge of the Savage Planet offers cooperative fun in an alien environment worth exploring. A varied gameplay experience propels you around a dynamic world of wonder, amplified by vibrant visuals and punchy audio. Let down somewhat by its comedic tone and unpolished approach, this title falls short of its full potential but still finds ways to surprise and delight along the way.

    At its core, this is a fairly enjoyable metroidvania with solid level design and attractive environments — but it's brought to its knees by an unnecessarily overcomplicated gameplay system, bland combat, and technical shortcomings. The style of humor here also won’t be to everyone’s taste.
