    This game is pretty good, all things considered. The graphics are good, the puzzles are great, and the multiplayer, if you can find anyone to play with, is awesome. I'm surprised the score is so low.

    A solid puzzle platformer, Human: Fall Flat offers a unique experience in the genre. The controls take some getting used to, but are a joy to use once understood. The stages are inspired, the soundtrack is well used, and the developers have occasionally added free extra stages. Definitely worth the $7.50 it costs on the eshop currently.

    Sound interesting, it falls flat. I usually consider myself a pretty chill dude, but this game made me want to throw my Switch into the wall. (Thankfully, i didn't) The controls by themselves are hard to get use too. But then the game starts making me do very precise things.

    This game is boring in single player, and it's a chore to find a good group in online multiplayer, in attempts to pass the "failure to join hosts room", severe lag and delay, crazy glitches that break the game, and the abusive kicking system which probably shouldn't be a thing, I've rarely joined a fun game.

The controls are horrific, sometimes he easily climbs up things, other times because your left arm is slightly too low the character just won't climb and the only option is to fall and go all the way back to the last spawn point. The final straw for me was the construction level, pushing a wrecking ball and because of the disgraceful controls, falling onto the platform below. There is no way up from the platform so I am stuck in an area that cannot be progressed from. The chimps that developed this game haven't had the intelligence to provide players with the option to reload from another checkpoint, so my save game is now completely ruined because my character is stuck in an area it should not be in. Absolutely garbage. This is what happens when unqualified games designers with nothing but contempt for their customers get together and design a game. AVOID AVOID AVOID… Expand

While not being extremely lengthy, we both think that our money was well spent on this charming and goofy physics puzzler. I highly recommend this game as a great 2-player option for Switch owners.… Expand

    Awesome multiplayer game. I won't recommend it for single player. only for couch co-op and online. you will have a blast with your friends. Controls are tricky for the first 10 minutes. after that you will get used to and game will become extremely entertaining to play. Switch version runs really well. even playing two player on same switch. Totally recommended.

    I don't understand why people give bad rates for such a fun game. It is by far one of the most fun games to play with friends sitting on your couch.

    Pros: - very addictive gameplay = 9/10 - very fun and complex "puzzles" = 8/10 - high difficulty = 8/10 - great fun for multiplayer = 10/10 Cons: - not the most pleasing graphics 4/10 - controls sometimes feel awkward 5/10 -    I don't understand why people give bad rates for such a fun game.

    Cons:

    - full potential only when played with friends 5/10

    Verdict:
    With this game you get something that you really should enjoy with friends on your couch. Grab a drink or two, make some popcorn and enjoy the ride. You will struggle with the diffuculty sometimes but the more you play the more you get used to the kinda meh controls.
    All in all a very solid port and a very addictive gameplay. Lots of fun! = 8/10    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is a masterpiece. It starts out as a human documentary. It's such a weird, quirky game with only 11 levels in the base game, but that makes it really fun. Just playing with a friend and messing around or speedrunning on your own is really fun to do and, believe it or not, the controls are easy to get used to. I am currently making a Minecraft map based on the game, using the real game for reference. In the process, I found myself constantly picking up the game and breezing through the levels. The beginning of the game teaches you the basics, but as you get better, you can just climb over a few walls and be done with it. That's what I adore about this game. There is a lot of opportunity for speedrunning. The music is another thing. You wouldn't expect to hear such a good soundtrack in such a weird game. The gameplay is great, the music is amazing, and the two player mode is a blast. Oh and there's also free DLC.… Expand

    I like this game because there are so many stages you can do and you can make lobby's and join lobby's and you can create your own person

    I can understand why people like this, I can understand it's a well-made game for what its concept was, HOWEVER every time I play this game I want to jump off a cliff.

    If you think ragdoll physics are more amusing than annoying, then Human: Fall Flat will be one of the funniest playgrounds you can ever find on Switch. By allowing you to play with objects, mechanisms and all the physics that comes with that then you'll enjoy Human: Fall Flat's fun, if wonky experience.

    While there is certainly some merit in basing a game on a physics engine of this kind, it also means that Human: Fall Flat relies too much on its control scheme and on trying to handle very frustrating movements way too often.

    Human: Fall Flat on Nintendo Switch is neither good if labelled as a purposely "bad" game, nor as a physics puzzler. Why? It is purely because the controls make things more aggravating than hilarious, and, secondly, due to how uninspiring the puzzles themselves are. That's why.
