Super Drunken Guy Review (PlayStation 4)

Super Drunken Guy Review is a 2D-pixel platformer where the goal is to collect as many beers as possible but be careful – the more beers you collect, the blurrier the screen becomes! Run through various levels, jumping over obstacles and enemies while collecting as many beers as you can. Each beer you collect will add to your overall score, but it will also make the screen more blurry, making it harder to see what’s coming up ahead.

Super Drunken Guy Review Pros:

  • Pixel art graphics.
  • 133.9MB download size.
  • Platinum trophy.
  • 2D platformer gameplay.
  • Twenty levels to unlock.
  • The gimmick is every time you grab a beer, the screen gets more and more messed up to simulate you getting drunk.
  • Kill certain enemies by jumping on them.
  • Turns into a bit of a Splatformer in places with tight precise jumps needed.
  • Infinite lives.
  • Pick up a potion that clears your drunkness and puts the screen back properly.
  • Bite-sized levels.
  • The movement and jumping are not tight but that’s half the point of the game.
  • Great little time waster.
  • Easy Platinum trophy.
  • A ton of fun.
  • I like the mix of needing to run through levels and avoiding beer to ones where you have no choice.

Super Drunken Guy Review Cons:

  • The movement takes some getting used to.
  • Cannot remap the controls.
  • No replay value.
  • The score mechanic feels redundant.

Summary

Super Drunken Guy is a 2D platformer game that offers a unique and fun experience. The game features pixel art graphics and has a download size of 133.9MB.

The gameplay revolves around a gimmick where every time you grab a beer, the screen gets more and more distorted, simulating the effects of getting drunk. This adds an interesting twist to the gameplay. There are twenty levels to unlock, each offering different challenges. Some enemies can be defeated by jumping on them, adding another layer to the gameplay.

The game turns into a bit of a Splatformer in places, requiring tight and precise jumps. Despite the challenge, players have infinite lives, allowing for continuous gameplay. There’s also a potion that players can pick up to clear their drunkenness and restore the screen to its normal state.

The levels are bite-sized, making Super Drunken Guy a great little time waster. The movement and jumping mechanics are intentionally not tight, which is half the point of the game. It’s a ton of fun and offers an easy Platinum trophy for trophy hunters.

The game requires some getting used to, especially with the movement mechanics. Unfortunately, the controls cannot be remapped. While the game offers a lot of fun, it lacks replay value once all levels are completed. Additionally, the score mechanic feels redundant and doesn’t add much to the overall experience.

Overall, Super Drunken Guy is a fun and unique platformer game that offers a good time for players looking for something different. Its unique drunkenness mechanic and challenging gameplay make it stand out among other platformers. However, the lack of replay value and redundant score mechanics may not appeal to some players. Despite these minor drawbacks, it’s worth a try for those seeking a new gaming experience.
