    Assault Android Cactus is a very well-polished, entertaining arcade twin-stick shooter. Its only prickles come in the form of some poor level design, occasional difficulty spikes, and a little too much repetition. If you cast these issues aside, what you're left with is a short but sweet experience that's perfect for some competitive couch co-op with your friends.

    A fantastic little twin stick shooter, that is well designed, full of character and has some good variation. The characters you play as feel unique and varied as well as the enemies you face. Boss battles mix gameplay up and offer some challenging moments. I appreciated the extra modes and ranking at the end of each stage.

    I played demo of PC version first and was super excited for this game to come out on PS4. Game offers dynamic twin-stick shooter gameplay with tons of enemies appearing on screen, accompanied with superb soundtrack. Every android has unique weapons and character, some of them are unlockable by beating bosses. Story is simple but interesting to follow, spiced up with funny situations and dialogues. Game also offers infinite waves mode and up to 4 players couch co-op (online play is not included). There is also some unlockables to keep you busy, if you into such things. I quite pleased with this game overall and recommend it to anyone who love dynamic twin-stick shooter gameplay and cute characters.    … Full Review »
