Swarmlake Reviews

This is a perfect game. It has one goal and it accomplishes that well. Absolutely worth the price of a dollar an hour to completion and worth replaying. Turn your stress off and press forward with a stellar soundtrack to boot.

[h1]There's a certain intrinsic beauty in the chaotic - a method to all forms of madness[/h1] One might not be able to intellectualize exactly what they're doing at a given moment in [i]SWARMLAKE[/i], an endless score-chaser first-person-shooter/platformer hybrid that tasks one with jumping deftly in and around massive swarms of enemies - some clusters of spheres that follow you around, others incomprehensibly tall walls of pointed death - collecting satisfyingly-explosive orbs to stave off the horde for as long as one can, but something about the gameplay just [i]feels[/i] right in some instinctual way. The deeper one falls into the swarm, the more one naturally steps in tune with its intricate, captivating dance, learning little techniques and bits of gameplay knowledge like making right-angle turns to maximize enemy drop pickups or facing your direction of motion to clear out enemies in your path that offer the game a sense of skill progression and depth far beyond what its minimalist presentation suggests. Each run gives one the sense that they understand the game more, that they can wrangle with the chaos a little bit better (provided the game doesn't randomly decide to kill them as it feels sometimes, which is my one gripe) than the last time, which makes for a perfect, maddeningly-addictive way to waste an afternoon - or much, much longer if you feel like honing your skills to take on this game's leaderboards.
