Critic Reviews for The Gunk
The Gunk is a simple little platforming adventure full of malicious messes that are plenty fun to clean up.
Too familiar, too easy, and too short but if you're looking for an undemanding time waster on Game Pass you can certainly do worse than The Gunk.
Rani and Becks are an appealing duo to share adventures with, but they deserve something more exciting than The Gunk has to offer.
Nothing here will surprise seasoned gamers but The Gunk has enough diverting action and puzzle-solving in its brief runtime to keep players' attention
Cleaning up the titular Gunk is satisfying, but the rest of the game surrounding it is routine and overly familiar.
There is nothing fundamentally wrong with The Gunk. It works from a technical standpoint and it isn’t the worst way you can spend about five hours of your time. But I just can’t muster up any sort of authentic excitement about it. If it were funnier or cleverer or more challenging, I could maybe start to see it as a title I could recommend. But as it is, the best I can do is pay it that slightly backhanded compliment of saying it’s perfect for Game Pass.
