    Had for about three days now and played around 10 rounds
    Other than that down for maintenance or unable to connect with the servers.
    Pointless frustrating experience
    Playing the game was fun but I've not been able to start a game for over 24 hours.

    This game is fun and has a lot of potential, could grow up to be something big and long lasting. Physics are great and most game modes are really fun to play both alone and with friends. However, on its current state it has huge server issues, lag and many Quality of Life deficiencies that really harm player experience.

    At launch it has a short number of levels and gets very repetitive, especially on the first 2 rounds of each match. New players will be stuck playing the same 3-4 levels until they get good enough to consistently make it to rounds 3 and 4 where most levels are.
    To top it off, the Platinum trophy is really really hard to obtain due to a certain trophy that requires an extreme amount of luck, so trophy hunters should keep away from this game.    … Expand

    Fall Guys is a great fun (FREE ON PS+) game, a breath of fresh air on Battle Royale games I suppose, it has easy controls, challenging rounds and anyone can win depending on your skills and luck too! It does have its flaws, frequent disconnection to servers, lack of couch co-op, spectate teammates at default, crossplay, and modes (duos/trios/quads).

    A brilliant, fun, original game. Only issue is the menus, loading and leaving can get messy. Hopefully they patch it. For what it is, it’s brilliant.

The game has a really nice art style, the fall guys are adorable along with their costumes. This game is really simple to pick up and play, you've got 4 main controls move, jump, dive, and grab; thats all you really need.

    While the controls are super easy sometimes when everyone is going to the same place if you ragdoll it could put you behind everyone, which very often is part of the fun but every now and then it can be annoying.

    The levels are creative and fun, just sometimes you can get ones you don't like and that could ruin your whole run (For me its Slime Climb I just can't beat it).
    Also personally I find that I'm playing some levels so much more than others (like I'm playing dizzy heights or gate crash nearly every few games and rarely play block party or jinxed) I don't know if others have felt like this is happening to them too or not but this makes some levels become repetitive but I can still have fun in the intensity and funniness in the levels and the fall guys.

    Right now the cosmetics are limited because it was released a few days ago but the FREE battle pass has about 40 tiers which you can unlock outfits, patterns, colours, face colours, theatrics (emotes), kudos(money) and crowns (wins but also rare money). The store (which you can spend your kudos and crowns in) changes with about 5 things changing alot and 3 main things that stay longer. So far everything in the store doesn't need microtransactions but if you want to spend money to get more kudos then you can. Kudos are also earned after every game you play no matter how well you did. Microtransactions can also be spent a few outfits.

    The customization is really good, you can make your fall guy yours. you have patterns with 2 different colours that you can chose then you have top half and bottom half of most outfits which you can mix and match with then you have face colours so you can make your fall guy have a white face, yellow or red and so on. then I think finally you have theatrics which are emotes and your wining podium celebrations. I hope they keep adding new and creative stuff to the customization to keep everyone looking different and fresh.

    This may just be me but I follow fall guys on twitter and to me they just seem like normal people that have made a game. They play it on twitch, they are honest and just seem like a team that made a game for people to like rather than for money, they bring in the community with memes about fall guys. I think they (along with the art style) makes the community feel like an actual community rather than just a bunch of players tweeting at nothing trying to get a response. It makes it feel like everyone is enjoying the game. Their presence in the community makes the community feel positive instead of toxic and personally makes me believe and trust them when they say stuff like they plan to add loads more levels, cosmetics and features.

    Thats why I think this game deserves an 9 because it's a very good game. Easy (not too much skill to it), cute and colourful with good customization, alot of the levels are so much fun and the devs say they will keep working on the game to make it bigger and better, and if you get on ps4 with PS+ it is free with no needed microtransactions. But i find that I'm playing some levels more than others (which becomes repetitive and predictable) and sometimes the rush of all the players can sometimes be the difference of qualifying or being eliminated which I can find both fun and frustrating.

    -The Art Style
    -Easy

    Probably my most disliked Devolver game. Unfinished. Poorly implemented mechanics. There's a few gems, but they are buried under multiple repetitive games that often end up being frustrating for all the wrong reasons.

    The best thing about this game is the fact that it's a roadmap for a better developer too easily improve on.

    Besides the first day issue with servers, the game is a fun time and it deserves attention: it's battle royale about managing to go through an obstacle course rather than shooting or killing and if you win the match you get to the next and try to stay alive. There are about 4-5 matches each "episode" (I think that's what its called) and each match can last from 1 to 5 minutes, depending onBesides the first day issue with servers, the game is a fun time and it deserves attention: it's battle royale about managing to go through an obstacle course rather than shooting or killing and if you win the match you get to the next and try to stay alive. There are about 4-5 matches each "episode" (I think that's what its called) and each match can last from 1 to 5 minutes, depending on how difficult it is.

    Honestly, my only issue is how the game is reliant on luck than actual skills: you can learn the games and eventually get good at them but it's extremely difficult to win because it's solely relied on luck and hardly on anything else. Your fall guy is sluggish and doesn't move fast, he's slow and any hit will make him ragdoll for a brief moment which alone can make you lose some games, and even then you might still love if you just jump wrong or move differently: it wasn't uncommon for me to lose a match despite having an advantage on position. I wish they would make it possible for the others to have a way to recover their position somehow, like a rubber band, because there are many "races" in this game and one of the final stages IS a race, so if you start wrong you're gonna lose.

    Also, the game gets repetitive fast and that's an issue that should be taken care off soon because people might get tired and leave the game and this game requires players to be playable: I think they should have a custom play where few friends can play other minigames and have specific matches played or simply have custom plays with X amount of players so that you can at least enjoy short matches.

    For the moment, I think it's a fine game: still needs some cure and I hope they expand the game soon because it does get repetitive even after short playing sessions.    … Expand

    It can also be a bit frustrating when competing in team mode, but it's fun.

    An absolute colorful and silly blast of a time! Fall Guys is a battle royale game like no other by simply not being like the generic "battle royale." This game has all sorts of fun puzzles,mini games,and races all with colorful little guys and bright colors blasting your eyes with a good time! It's absolute eye candy combined with some silly knock out mayhem!

    Sixty funny characters crammed together on a small area, competing with each other, while avoiding various traps and causing all sorts of unpredictable, amusing situations – what’s not to like here? The rules are simple and the entry threshold is low, so pretty much anyone can pick up Fall Guys and instantly have fun. [10/2020, p.60]
