    Action Henk is a platformer racer. Not an autorunner. Very much like Joe Danger without the polish and content. Gameplay is solid. It takes 25 levels to get to the swinging mechanic that makes it so much more fun. I recommend turning off the terrible music and rocking to some Spotify. Art and polish is terrible. Local multiplayer only. The game is a lot of fun but pricey for $15.

    Picked it up for 3 bucks at the playstation sale. Very fun game! If you're a fan of arcade games like Trails or Trackmania, definitely give this one a go. The game lacks a bit of polish, but the gameplay and sense of speed is very satisfying. The difficulty level is also ramping up at a nice pace. The beginning is quite easy, but the later levels will definitely test your skills!

    I spent an obscene amount of time battling the clock on this game. It's painfully fun to play. And when you finish a run, you get to see how much better you did than other players on a level (my best is having beaten 97% of all players). The mechanics are super intuitive and homing your skill is insanely possible. You start out not-good, and then a weekend later you've gotten all goldI spent an obscene amount of time battling the clock on this game. It's painfully fun to play.

Cross-platform multiplayer and a high-energy soundtrack make the replayability that much higher. I love this game, and doing well at it is sickly satisfying.… Expand

    It’s all about going fast, perfecting jumps and slides, and going even faster than the last run. That’s Action Henk in a nutshell – faster than last.

    It's easy enough to overlook these quirks when the core gameplay is so satisfying and immediate. [Apr 2016, p.81]

    A cute and charming speed-runner that races straight for your heart through winning nods to childhood days and the best damn butt-slide you'll find on PS4. [Apr 2016, p.92]
