Aug 27, 2018Everything about the game is a bright shining star. The story and character design, the voice talent, music and art design. If I was going to compare it to something, which I'm going to, I'd say it's on par with that of a Tim Schaffer game. This is only a good thing. Flipping Death is a fun tale with a mostly laid-back gameplay style, possibly just a tiny bit too short. Another chapter or two certainly wouldn't be a hindrance, but still, the replayability is there with the challenges in each.

Sep 4, 2018Flipping Death is a truly unique experience. Boasting beautiful art design, stellar voice work and gameplay like no other, it's a game that will have you in fits of laughter. If only it lasted just a bit longer.

Aug 7, 2018The humor is top notch like usual, but the game is such a refined product. The puzzles are clean and easy to grasp, there is some solid replay value, and every character you possess does something unique. The only disappointing thing is that it feels cheap to rely on the game’s helpful tools. Personally I felt that I lost a little something in the process by doing so. In the end though, it all depends on the experience players find most desirable. All what matters is this though: Flipping Death is an adventure game everyone can enjoy.

Aug 6, 2018Flipping Death does share plenty of DNA with Stick it to the Man! - ranging from the floatiness of its platforming to the ability to read the minds of other characters - but that doesn’t stop it from being a far superior offering in almost every way. We’re still not quite sure why Death is possessing the souls of the living and sorting out the loose ends of the dead, but it makes for a memorable black-humoured adventure that deserves to haunt your Nintendo Switch immediately.

Aug 7, 2018Flipping Death brings a ghostly story full of humor in which the intertwined missions will make you enjoy and not want to stop playing. Join Death Fellow Penny on an adventure between the world of the living and the world of the dead. Control your scythe and possess as many humans as you can in this terrifying story.

Aug 16, 2018A morbidly amusing narrative in the backdrop of a facetious universe, along with hilarious characters and their puzzling torments, Flipping Death undoubtedly transpires coherence as an adventure game, proving that the genre still belongs to the world of the living.
-
Aug 15, 2018The characters are mesmerizing.
-
Aug 14, 2018Flipping Death is a solid and deep puzzle game, topped off with platform mechanics and exceptional humor.
-
Aug 10, 2018Zoink Games still has the touch, and Flipping Death is the living proof of it. An original game with plenty of platforming/puzzles that may entertain you while it lasts, even with its minor problems.
-
Aug 8, 2018If you like your games with an offbeat sense of humour and plenty of personality, Flipping Death comes recommended.
-
Aug 30, 2018Flipping Death is an absurdly funny adventure, which doesn't offer a big challenge, but its charm compensates for that.
-
Aug 7, 2018Despite my complaints with the game, it’s still a hugely enjoyable time.
