Crimsonland

If you like retro shooters and relax by blowing stuff up, Crimsonland is an easy way to spend a few afternoons as long as you don’t expect anything groundbreaking. Some of you may want to stay away unless you have constant access to couch co-op, as it can overstay its welcome after every mission is said and done.

Crimsonland is a very simple game that is tough to master. Whilst being a lot of fun while it lasts, we can't help but feel that it's missing that undefinable something. There are definitely visual shortcomings that some people won't be able to get past (although that's more on them than the developer) and though there's simple enjoyment to be had, there's also a feeling that a lot more could have been done to mix things up for players who want a deeper experience. It'll definitely be one that you'll pick up every now and again for a quick hour of cathartic Survival mode gunplay though, that's...

Do you like top-down shooters? Do you like Zombies? Do you like shooting things with different power-ups and weapons? If you said yes to any of these questions, Crimsonland is the game for you. Survive in inhospitable conditions. You have your best friend by your side and a couple of guns and and power-ups to keep you happy.

Don't be fooled by its simplistic, retro visual stylings. Crimsonland is enormous fun, and the perfect game to dip in and out of on occasion. Will you keep coming back for more though? Probably not.

There are much, much better games, and even much better similar games, on the PS4. Get those unless you really are a major fan of this genre.
