May 6, 2019Giga Wrecker Alt. is a metroidvania with excellent platform components and puzzle solving through the use of physics. Thus, its unusual artistic section and its dark setting make it the most adult title of Game Freak to date and one that will please those who seek something different.

Apr 30, 2019Giga Wrecker Alt. is still a solid Metroidvania game, even though we're getting more of them nowadays. Even though the collision and physics can sometimes be wonky, the puzzle platforming is inventive and matches well with the combat, which goes at a nice flow once you master the rhythm of the controls. Despite some blurry parts here and there, the graphical art style is good, and the soundtrack is absolutely perfect for the genre. The additions made at the sacrifice of the level builder are worth the exchange, so adventure fans will find Giga Wrecker Alt. to be well worth checking out.

Apr 29, 2019Giga Wrecker Alt. is a fun action platformer that represents a fresh direction for Game Freak outside of the Pokémon realm. The game lacks in combative and traversal actions for its protagonist and doesn’t have the tightest controls. But it satisfies in level design and the unique way in which Reika interacts with the environment to solve puzzles and push forward in her quest.

Jul 8, 2019Giga Wrecker Alt is a pretty cool game. It has some issues and likely won’t compel all players to keep going, but the puzzles are good, and getting to throw a ton of junk to smash a robot is always fun. The game looks good, sounds good, and offers plenty of play time, so get in there and wreck it.

Apr 29, 2019Game Freak know how to make games with that little something that absorbs you. Giga Wrecker isn’t flawless, but we’ve enjoyed this adventure a lot, and we recommend it to all metroidvania fans.

Apr 26, 2019A good metroidvania that proves that Game Freak is able to make different types of games than Pokémon, despite the fact that it's not visually interesting and even confusing at times.
