An intense and beautifully designed action-physics platformer, which also happens to be dirt cheap.

Some may love Capsized emphasis on frantic action whilst simultaneously enforcing platforming puzzles and exploration and may even be able to overlook the frustrating controls that don’t make any of this any easier. Others may just want to give this rickety survival mission a miss.

At the end of the day, Capsized left us with very mixed emotions. We wanted to love it and enjoy it to the fullest, but the troublesomely inefficient controls stood tall between us and pure fun. If you think you’re patient enough to get past this hindrance, then by all means, the game assuredly deserves a look. If not, you’re better off playing it safe and avoiding the aggravation altogether, or giving the game a download on Steam, instead – if you possess the necessary hardware, of course. Capsized is surely a good game that just didn’t quite translate ideally from PC to a home console.
