LocoCycle Reviews
LocoCycle is an out-of-the-box title, as original as twisted pixel's old works. But both The Gunstringer and 'Splosion Man worked far better than this irreverent "combat racing." Here the team tries to mix dicks, high-speed sprints, quick time events and absurd Live-Action skits. The result intrigues and entertains for a few half hours, but then begins the "descending phase" of the Parable of LocoCycle and the last part of the short adventure is too equal to itself and very tired in terms of playful solutions.

I wanted to love LocoCycle, but in the end, I just liked it. It has moments where I had a lot of fun with it, and others where I was forcing myself to play another level. This is probably my least favorite TP game to date, and that is depressing.
LocoCycle has an utterly ridiculous story that will elicit a few laughs, but its gameplay isn't all that engaging.
Its situations and story are riotous, but LocoCycle can't translate its fun humor into fun gameplay.
LocoCycle offers a simple fun arcade experience set against a wild and fairly humorous story. It's not going to pass any "next gen" Litmus test as far as graphics and gameplay goes, but it's enjoyable nonetheless.
LocoCycle earns its name with a metric ton of crazy, but its inconsistent, monotonous gameplay ultimately derails it.
While LocoCycle is the worst looking game of the Xbox One launch, it's saved thanks to its over the top and fun gameplay. It can get repetitive at times, but the game does mix up what you're doing relatively often, which keeps things from becoming overly monotonous.
LocoCycle tries a lot of new things thematically, while simultaneously paying homage to classic arcade racing shooters. It doesn't succeed in everything it sets out to do, but if you're looking for a decent arcade shooter to toy around with on your new Xbox One, LocoCycle is it. For everyone else, you'll have to wait until it hits the Xbox 360.
You can tell that Twisted Pixel had a great time making Lococycle. It's a fun, quick experience, but not one you're likely to repeat
Lococycle brings new meaning to DRAG racing. Take this arcade game in small doses for best results.
I enjoyed Lococycle, but only after abandoning my sensibilities as I've learned to do when playing games from Twisted Pixel. To the uninitiated, Lococycle will prove rather perplexing as it isn't like most games. However, players looking for a short game filled with tons of laughs and ridiculous gameplay will feel right at home. Lococycle won't wow anyone with its graphics, combat system, or replayability, but it just might be the thing you are looking for in your attempts to kill a boring afternoon.
