May 18, 2015It could've been an interesting shoot'em up, but it's way too frustrating,and utterly spoiled by a lame save system, bugs and glitches.
-
May 11, 2015It gets points for creativity, but most of Project Root is either awkward or dull, and sometimes, both.
-
Apr 30, 2015Games like Project Root make you contemplate the futility of existence, and not in a good way like the philosophical musings of Postman Pat. It's not a bad game – not like Rambo or Ride to Hell: Retribution – it's just very, very boring. There needs to be a reason to play, and there's just nothing here to get excited about.

May 8, 2015The idea of bringing back the shoot ‘em up genre was ok, but it’s extremely repetitive and boring.
-
Jul 1, 2015The gameplay is dull and repetitive, the story is worthless, the sound design is so generic it could work anywhere, and there’s next to no replayability.

DealspwnMay 1, 2015Project Root blithely assembles the worst parts of classic SHMUPs and exploration-driven shooters into a complete mess. Lacklustre presentation, an inappropriate progression system and clipping glitches on all formats round out a thoroughly disappointing package.
