Critic Reviews
Dead or School review
If you enjoy gameplay focussed experiences and can tolerate some jank, Dead or School will be worth getting when it drops in price.

For some, the technical jank may be enough to put them off engaging with Dead or School fully. That’d be a real shame, though; allow yourself to get wrapped up in the narrative, the mechanics, the piles of loot, the beautifully designed stages and the game’s wonderful sense of style, and there’s something truly special to enjoy here; an honest-to-goodness hidden gem if ever there was one.

School's out for summer. Maybe even forever.
