    Fun games can be simple, and simple games are often fun, but there's a tedium at the heart of Super Motherload that it just can't shake.

    Playing this digging puzzler made me almost fall asleep. But as soon as you get a few players to help you, you’ll uncover some fun buried under all that rubble.

    After playing through once, there really isn't anything compelling to go a second time unless you want the trophies or to unlock and upgradeAfter playing through once, there really isn't anything compelling to go a second time unless you want the trophies or to unlock and upgrade other characters. Once you upgrade one character you can finish the game in under 20 minutes on regular. There is no additional content to unlock. This game is worth $5 at most. If you haven't bought it yet, wait for a sale. I wasn't expecting great graphics. I knew I was buying a game that was not much more than a port from a 10 year old flash game. Full Review »
