    A kind of crimsonland-wannabe game (but this time in open space). Gameplay is high-speed, the enemy is tougher with every new level. But there are no power-ups at all, so replays become a bit boring.

    Pretty intense shooter for such a simple game. I appreciated it more on a big screen, which seemed to make the bullet-hell maneuvering more precise. Difficulty spikes hard after the first 10 levels or so, as if it was designed primarily for short mobile sessions. Can get quickly frustrating, and hard to tell if you'd get better at it, or whether success is rather random.

    XType Plus is the essence of the Wii U eShop's potential for quick, cheap and accessible games, wrapped up in a tightly controlled and satisfying game with endless potential for replayability.

    Xtype Plus would benefit from more solutions, options and game modes.

    Xtype Plus is a bullet hell shooter in the true sense of the word. A hell of spaceships and shots, addictive and tough, just like old school shooters are expected to be.
