4 / 10 - Troll and I
Aug 20, 2017

For every intriguing idea that Troll and I presents, there are a couple of design choices or technical issues that will aggravate players.

Despite the intricate visuals and unusual design, there's nothing on offer here that is genuinely compelling from a gameplay perspective.

Whether you're a monster truck nut or not, you should avoid Monster Jam: Crush It! at all costs. It lacks a lot of polish, has a lackluster presentation, poor controls and no semblance of progression that can in any way be construed as satisfying. It feels like a slapdash attempt at riding the wave of Switch goodwill, but doesn't join the growing list of games on the system that are worth playing.
