Critic Reviews
Roundabout Review
Roundabout would probably work better as a PlayStation Vita game, which you could jump into for five minutes while you're riding the tube, bus, or a perpetually rotating limousine. Fortunately, the game was announced for the handheld last year, so hopefully that version still comes to fruition. On the PlayStation 4, there's definitely still fun to be found in this highly stylised game, but the novelty soon wears off if you play it in long bursts.

“No Goblin’s open-world puzzle game puts the player in control of a spinning limousine, and things only get weirder from there.”
70%Roundabout Review
No Goblin has managed to create a game that is not only funny, but also one that is full of heart and which can be genuinely touching. While Roundabout's ride is over after a few hilarious hours, there are enough collectibles and challenges to keep your attention focused on the title for much longer. If you're a fan of absurd humor, fast-paced challenging gameplay and seeing Eric Pope in a farmer outfit, then Roundabout should be the next game you purchase. It may aim to feel like a B-movie, but Roundabout is a blockbuster in terms of fun.
