Review anarchistica 2/5 · Jul 23, 2018
Not as clever as it thinks it is
Initially this game is quite interesting. The setting is unusual and the quark system is sort-of clever (similar to Magicka). I expected to like this game, but it quickly becomes tedious. Having to constantly find quarks is a pointless annoyance. In the first hour i didn't encounter any clever puzzles or platforming which the quark system would be suited for. …

Worst of all is how repetitive it is. You have to knock out and capture hundreds of enemies. At one point there were 6 or so of these in a row. Jump, punch, capture, repeat. There's absolutely no point in having 6 enemies in a row, it doesn't require any skill to capture them, it's just busywork.
The physics puns are also unfunny and conversations going on for way too long.
They basically took a clever mechanic and failed to turn it into an interesting game. Shame.
