    Stunning game. Perfectly captures everything that's great about the arcade shmup experience. Loads of modes and options and, despite looking insane, actually very accessible to anyone.

    Ugly game with obviously no play testing. Novice is way to easy while arcade fills up the screen with bullets making it ugly asf. You also move way too fast. He should have went back to the drawing board before releasing this garbage. Should have looked at ikaruga to see how you make real shmups.will give 1 star cus it is somewhat playable

    Crimzon Clover is one of my favorite shooting games of all time, and this Switch port is amazing. The new arrange mode is a lot of fun.

    I mean, this game is pretty damn perfect. This is the game shmup heads recommend to new players. It made seem intimidating at first, but there is a novice mode to ease you in. Once you start you may never want to stop. It's basically like 8 lanes of traffic crashed through a fireworks mega factory while simultaneously aliens are trying to invade. It is a dazzling spectacle but you canI mean, this game is pretty damn perfect. This is the game shmup heads recommend to new players. It made seem intimidating at first, but there is a novice mode to ease you in. Once you start you may never want to stop. It's basically like 8 lanes of traffic crashed through a fireworks mega factory while simultaneously aliens are trying to invade. It is a dazzling spectacle but you can still see what's going on. The stunning visuals don't detract from the great gameplay, managing the bombs and hypers at just the right time and organizing your options to be where they need to be. If you buy this game, you'll probably end up a life long shmup player. Just don't credit feed, try to beat it 1CC.… Expand

    Maybe it’s because of my age, but Crimzon Clover: World Explosion is one of the non-Ring Fit games where I felt exhausted after a session. It’s surprisingly demanding if you’re not used to these kinds of space shooters. I can see why the hardcore fans eat this game up, and it’s a very well designed game. It’s just not something I’d recommend for relaxing after a tough day at work.

    Crimzon Clover: World EXplosion is a rare entry within the genre that manages to be inviting to shmup rookies, while also giving the hardcore veterans plenty of challenge to chew on thanks to its carefully considered mechanics and swathe of options.
