Akka Arrh Review (PlayStation 4)
For this Akka Arrh Review, we get to play a modern take on a scrapped project from the 1980s, providing players with a fast-paced, addictive, arcade shooter experience and psychedelic visuals. Protect your life rings as you chain together combos and go for a high score!
Akka Arrh Review Pros:
- In-your-face neon wireframe graphics.
- 231.1MB download size.
- Platinum trophy.
- Works on Playstation 5.
- Arena shooter gameplay.
- Intro/tutorial set of levels.
- You are a turret and you must defend yourself against enemies.
- At certain points, the enemies may get into your area underneath so you drop down a level and play more traditional shooters down there.
- Turrets have bullets and bombs, bombs explode and spread out killing enemies and then turning them into explosions causing a huge chain reaction.
- Combo counter.
- Setting a new bomb starts a new combo but you can use your limited bullets to keep the combo going.
- The arena you play on changes size and shape as you progress.
- The bomb explosion shapes change.
- The screen is chaotic but so needed as it shows the score, combos, tips, humourous text, and more.
- Uses the English language in the same way I use it… Brilliantly but also aimed at us older more eloquent gamers.
- I love the look of the game overall.
- Everything in the game is bright colors and flashy.
- You can go in and tone did the epileptic flashing.
- The controls can be set to two or one button inputs.
- It’s pure arcade nostalgia.
- Online leaderboards.
- Has a strong one-more-go hook.
Akka Arrh Review Cons:
- Takes a bit of getting used to the gameplay as it is different from Minter’s previous releases.
- The controls are floaty and are the only issue I have.
- No native PlayStation 5 version.
- The menus are not always clear.
- A lot to take in.
