RUBATO Reviews
I had a good time, but was only really able to enjoy the game in shorter bursts. If you’re a platformer veteran and looking for something that is out of your comfort zone, you really cannot go wrong with Rubato. Even though I don’t think I’ll personally revisit it any time soon.
Rubato is a wildly unpredictable physics-based platformer that thrives on chaos, blending fast-paced traversal, absurd humor, and constant mechanical shifts into an experience that defies easy explanation. What begins as a seemingly simple 2D adventure quickly evolves into a genre-hopping, idea-dense journey filled with strange characters, unexpected gameplay twists, and a surprisingly compelling underlying narrative. While its early pacing and tonal randomness may alienate some players, those who embrace its unconventional structure will find a deeply engaging and rewarding experience that stands out in the indie space.
