Mar 4, 20213 out of 10’s move to Nintendo Switch is a successful port that makes sense on the portable device. Taking in the game’s 30(ish)-minute episodes one at a time is a great format that works well on Switch, since you can watch it from wherever you may be in your house. Season two is slated to release on the Epic Games Store on Thursday, April 8 for free, so now is the perfect time to get caught up on all of the shenanigans from season one.

Mar 2, 2021I’ll be front row with my bucket of popcorn for 3 out of 10: Season Two. The art style is fun, the writing is on-point, and the game itself runs almost perfectly on the Switch. The first season of 3 Out of 10 isn’t something you’ll get hours upon hours out of. But you wouldn’t want to overstay your welcome in this world anyways. And that’s the magic of what the developers accomplished here. Terrible Posture Games knew precisely what they were doing in making a terrible game about developing a terrible game. Bravo.

Mar 2, 20213 Out of 10 has plenty of funny moments and a collection of strong characters that can genuinely draw out laughs. There’s some nice satire about the gaming industry and the title strikes a good balance between having stereotypical characters that are quite loud but remain likable and never become annoying. The only major problem is that it is simply so short and ends on a cliffhanger, a ploy almost certainly designed to get players to come back for season two. But if it continues the trend set during the first five episodes, that should not be a big problem anyway.

Mar 4, 20213 out of 10: Season One shows a lot of promise and heart through its humour and characters, even if its short length is disappointing and its gameplay feels a bit superfluous. I’ll certainly be checking out season two whenever that rolls around.
