Play UKGood fun. [Issue#194, p.102]
-
Great platformer with a nice nostalgia factor, but too short given its high price.
-
An inoffensive 2D platformer with some novel ideas - but fairly vapid and overly expensive.
-
It's hard to know how many people are really going to care about the return of Rocket Knight. Climax has done a decent job of giving it a modern sheen, but while it's mildly entertaining and completely inoffensive, it's also forgettable.
-
For all its competence, there's no real hook for anyone who doesn't remember the original Rocket Knight game. It appeals mainly to nostalgia for the way platformers used to be. Although it has a lovely next-gen presentation with the hi-res, 3D graphics engine, this is very much two-or-three-gens-ago gameplay.

-
Games Master UKIt's short, though, and not worth the price. [Aug 2010, p.101]
-
Edge MagazineThe game's major flaw, however, is its brevity. [July 2010, p.105]
