    This game is everything one needs in a top-down shooter to be happy, but the levels kind of drag on and aren't varied enough (especially the last 2), but its fun, after the boss fight, to see what the new area will look like and explore it for a while.

Some of the annoyances is the search for buckeyballs, where you would have to go through a whole level to see if you actually collected it in that level, where it would have been easier to have a menu hud telling if we collected it or not. The biggest annoyance of this game is the final boss and the end sequence, it's just a pain that the game was building up to this lackluster ending, I expected better. But the game is fun, the upgrade is cool, it gives a unexpected challenge, and coop is a hoot. All in all, you should try this game out. Expand

    We guarantee that you'll be bored with what this has to offer after a couple of hours. [Issue#70, p.101]

    If only the combat matched the visuals. [Apr 2011, p.111]

    MicroBot is ultimately a game with a somewhat fresh idea executed poorly. I quickly grew tired exploring the different areas of the body, and sadly the repetitive shooting offers no variation or real challenge throughout the game.
