    One of the best party games in years! Simple and effective. Highly recommend this with a party of 3-4 people.

    The game is essentially a 2D platformer where players need to get from point A to point B and each place one item to help/hinder everyone's passage. Everybody makes it across, no one makes a point. Make it across alone? Bonus points! Hilarious fun!

    Thanks to the recent patch, this game's biggest problem, the crashing, is gone now. So what's left? An amazing party platformer, similar to Mario Maker, where you can create the most chaotic levels in an attempt to stop your rivals from making it. It's surprisingly fun and addictive to make it to the goal. The controls COULD be slightly more responsive, or maybe it's just me.

    Very fun game to play with 3 to 4 players in local competive chaos. A great way to turn friends into enemies. The physics in this game may be the best 2D black hole simulation ever made.

    Amazing party game. Unlocking all the levels takes a while but there are cheat codes to unlock everything if that's not for you.

    Es un buen juego, pero no lo recomendaría si es que lo piensas jugar con solo una persona más o incluso 3. Es un juego para 4.

    I dont get the love for this game. This multiplayer platform is supposed to be silly and fun, but leads to just frustration and wonkiness.

    This is a fun multiplayer competitive platformer. Playing with friends is a lot of fun, and the different maps and adjustments make it near infinitely replayable. I primarily play party mode, but there are other modes are fun. When creating a blank stage, I wish the objects interacted more to make cool contraptions, but the weird interactions in the game are fun to explore and use inThis is a fun multiplayer competitive platformer.

When creating a blank stage, I wish the objects interacted more to make cool contraptions, but the weird interactions in the game are fun to explore and use in challenge levels. Customization for the playable animal is also nice, and the score balancing is something I have never seen but is so useful when playing with better or worse players. This game is fun and allows for user created content to be shared online. When playing online, I have experienced lag issues and frequent unstable connections.

    I would recommend it for local play primarily.    … Expand

    This is the best party game of the current era. It triumphs over others in sheer creativity. It can become refreshingly challenging and has good variety. It does however suffer from a lack of content, and online play is very laggy.

    Customisable game modes and the option to create your own stages give Ultimate Chicken Horse a nice starting point but the gameplay on offer does wear a little stale after a few rounds.

    The system that has managed to create Clever Endeavor Games is really admirable. The game hides some mechanics of great complexity with a very varied personalization in all its sections. Although its control is somewhat imprecise and we would have liked to see more blocks with which to experiment, the fun offered by the game makes us recommend it.

    While the platforming aspect of the game doesn’t appear to be as big a selling point as the level creation, the gameplay is still tight and solid enough.
