Luke's game of the week.
Meganoid (2017)
Meganoid (2017) is a bit of a polarizing game because of its challenge level and on-screen control issues.
There is a lot to like about Meganoid (2017). It's a smooth-running, fast-paced, beautifully-retro looking platformer that provides a tough challenge that some gamers will appreciate. The rogue-like gameplay means you can replay the game a lot and never get bored. If any of this sounds appealing to you, Meganoid (2017) could be a great game for you.
Of course, if you're worried about the clunky controls and the insane difficulty level, I wouldn't blame you for staying clear.
Bottom line: Meganoid (2017) is a perfectly serviceable platformer that can be a lot of fun, but isn't groundbreaking in any way. Whether it's worth the $4.99 download price is a decision best left up to you.
