Damikira Review (PlayStation 5)

Damikira Review, What do you get when you combine frenetic arcade-style shooting, tons of guns and violence, a sprinkle of dark humor, and a grappling hook? It’s Damikira, an action-packed platformer that’s easy to play but tough to master! Grab a firearm and blast through side-scrolling stages as you face hordes of costumed enemies, challenge online leaderboards, upgrade your arsenal, and discover hidden mechanics to stack the deck in your favor!

Damikira Review Pros:

  • Decent graphics.
  • 214.4MB download size.
  • Platinum trophy.
  • You get the PlayStation 4 and the PlayStation 5 versions of the game.
  • Graphics settings – screenshake, camera recoil, Crosshair color, bloom, heat effect, and background noise.
  • Blood can be turned on and off and set to how extreme.
  • Tutorial on/off.
  • Online leaderboard.
  • Three playable characters – Emily, Henry, and Eric, each one can have a hat equipped once unlocked.
  • Local two-player support.
  • Simple controls – move, aim, jump, shoot, and hook. You can set it to auto-aim.
  • 2D action shooter gameplay.
  • Opening tutorial section showing off the controls and game flow.
  • At the end of life, you get a rank.
  • Pick up new guns, power-ups, and health as you play.
  • You get given a set mission to advance but it’s very loose with it.
  • Every run randomizes the mission and level.
  • Health bars of enemies show.
  • Massive combo counter.
  • Text will pop up.
  • When you complete a mission you get transported to another location with a new mission.
  • The hook helps you fly around the level.
  • Objective arrows can appear around your character to help.
  • A lot of explosive elements within a level.

Damikira Review Cons:

  • If you get overly stimulated in games then this will be a nightmare for you, so much is going on all the time and it is so chaotic it’s hard to follow.
  • You cannot remap the controls.
  • I found the navigation a pain as it was not smooth to go from jumping to hooking.
  • It’s very easy to die and not understand why.
  • You can lose track of your character.
  • No online play.
  • The only thing keeping you coming back is unlocking hats or maybe of luck, score chasing.

Gaming since the Atari 2600, I enjoy the weirdness in games counting Densha De Go and RC De Go as my favourite titles of all time. I prefer gaming of old where buying games from a shop was a thing, Being social in person was a thing. Join me as I attempt to adapt to this new digital age!
