chaiinchomp's review of Blockara

-- Part of my Itch.io Bundle Project - Attempting to play and rate every game in the 2020 Bundle for Racial Justice --

  • Rating: 5.0 / 10
  • Year played: 2020
  • Playtime: 5-15 mins
  • Completion level: Played some, didn't finish
  • Verdict: Not my thing but maybe it's yours

This is one where I feel bad giving a low score because I can tell there's a lot of love and effort put into it.

It has a homemade kind of feel, with handdrawn cartoon graphics and poorly-recorded voiceover lines. The gameplay is arcade-y, something like a cross between bejeweled and puzzle bobble, but with the addition of battle mechanics to clear your opponent before they can clear you.

The idea is cool, but it doesn't play out that well. Feels clunky, and gets boring after a couple rounds.
