gameplay
13 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe gameplay of "Wimp" is a blend of platforming and puzzle-solving, featuring four distinct mechanics across different worlds that enhance complexity and challenge as players progress. While some reviewers noted that the core gameplay can feel thin and repetitive, particularly in boss encounters, others praised the level design and the gradual introduction of new mechanics that lead to rewarding "ah ha" moments. Overall, the game offers a satisfying experience for those who appreciate its unique approach and are willing to push past the initial stages.
“I'm also glad I played past the first world; the best mechanics and 'aha' moments start happening after that.”
“The level design is outstanding; I loved the variety of levels and how the later level mechanics built on each other for better and better 'aha' moments.”
“Starts simple and steadily ramps in complexity, adding more mechanics to the mix and offering more challenge in the puzzling and platforming to collect the full 3 toilet roll ratings in each level.”
“However, the core gameplay remained thin and derivative, and the thematic elements did not do it any favors.”
“The boss fights are always the same, and the mechanics of the fights constantly repeat themselves.”
“Don’t go in expecting Super Meat Boy, and you’ll be pleased with its difficulty and mechanics.”
