Mekkablood: Quarry Assault
Critic Reviews for Mekkablood: Quarry Assault
Mekkablood: Quarry Assault is an old-school inspired shooter that adds a unique twist to the classic mecha story.
All the AI-generated content in the world cannot save the one cool visual idea that Mekkablood has, but it's not like it tried that hard to begin with.
Gameplay-wise, it’s fun and what you expect of a classic shooter. the weapons feel too samey and don’t look to have a difference in damage. My biggest issue is the lack of detail on level design. Most of the time it feels like I’m running through nothing but corridors with little to nothing to do. I didn’t finish the game because of being soft locked out of the exit on the Warehaouse level. I had the key but the door just wouldn’t open up even after restarting the level and playing back up to that point. Mekkablood: Quarry Assault’s levels are very much a maze, and the coloured corridors ended up messing with my eyes. There just wasn’t enough there for me to enjoy Mekkablood, and with the level design. That’s why I’m giving it the Bronze Award.
Mekkablood: Quarry Assault is a standout entry in the retro-inspired FPS genre, offering a unique mecha twist that sets it apart from its peers. Its deliberate pacing, thoughtful level design, and diverse arsenal create an immersive and rewarding gameplay loop that fans of classic shooters and mech games will adore. Whether you’re blasting enemies with rockets, mastering the art of mech movement, or hunting for hidden figurines, Mekkablood: Quarry Assault delivers an experience that’s both nostalgic and fresh. For players craving a retro-style shooter with a heavy-metal flair, this game is an absolute must-play.
