“its not my usual type of game, but for what it is, its pretty fun. Not very replayable because each run ends up roughly the same, and the grind for the round 100 achievements is pretty tedious, but otherwise its pretty fun and i didnt run into any bugs”

“I was kinda iffy about this for the first half of the this air hockey/block buster game. It's not great or well designed, but it was alright fun for a few minutes. The main game took a little under 40 minutes, with the option for endless modes.”
