A Gummy's Life
SCORE: 61
Family Friendly Gaming requested a
reviewable copy of A Gummy's Life. We were provided a digital download
code for A Gummy's Life on the Nintendo Switch. This party game is for
two to eight people at the same time. You would need quite a few
controllers to have that many people play on the Nintendo Switch. Which
would set you back a pretty penny. A Gummy's Life is a very different
kind of an indie game.
There is no single player option that I could find. According to the
lenient ESRB only family members thirteen and older should play A
Gummy's Life. This downloadable only party game is not for anyone under
the age of 13 according to the ESRB. A Gummy's Life has a lot of
violence, and there is plenty of blood. In fact your character can be
drained of all of their color. Then they explode.
I wish A Gummy's Life had more to it than just fighting the other
characters in these unique arenas. There are fifteen maps and plenty of
odd characters to be played in A Gummy's Life. We can be a slice of
cheese, a gummy bear, slice of watermelon and more. There are plenty of
odd sounds in A Gummy's Life. The graphics in A Gummy's Life are
definitely indie.
The controls in A Gummy's Life are really strange. The attacks the
characters make are very floppy. The taunts animate well, and actually
work better than the actual attacks. I felt like I was flipping a coin
every time I attacked someone. At times I hit, and at times they hit me.
I never found a good pattern to be able to make continuous progress. A
Gummy's Life is definitely a difficult game. The computer characters AI
is questionable at best.
The hazards in the levels are what makes A Gummy's Life very interesting
indeed. I never knew what was going to happen the first time. The floor
may fall away on everything but the numbers on the clock for example.
The modes in A Gummy's Life are Play, Online, Training, and Options. The
game play selections are Free for All, Team Death Match, King of the
Hill (only uses eight of the fifteen maps), and Hot Potato.
