SUPERHOT is an atypical shooter, almost touching the strategy and the puzzle. Time only advances if we move and that will create the situations where we will be involved in more than 30 levels, to kill all the enemies, as if it were an action movie. Fresh and original, but short and not very replayable, even so, the balance is tilted clearly next to SUPERHOT. Highly recommended.

Superhot is an interesting game. The time-bending gameplay doesn't evolve much the story was a rollercoaster ride of obscure information and unnerving situations. For a game where I spent most of the time killing Red Avatars Superhot is a surprisingly clever and thought-provoking FPS experience.
Effortlessly stylish, perhaps to the detriment of substance. But Superhot isn't one to miss.
What the Superhot Team strived to bring us is something different and by almost all accounts they succeeded. This shooter feels unlike anything I've played before and I do wish more games will follow in this example.
This bullet-dance is a joy to play. Like most things worthy of your time, it's tough to master, but feels damn near rapturous when you do. Whether you choose to play the flat version or the VR version, play this game.
SUPERHOT is the most innovative shooter of recent years, even on the Switch.

Playing Superhot is probably the closest I'll ever come to feeling like James Bond.
SUPERHOT VR is a creative game that makes you think about that next move - and then allows you to carry it out in fantastic fashion due to its movement / time-freeze mechanic. Adding the Oculus to mix is just a perfect fit, with great controls and crisp visuals that throw you right into the action.
Superhot is a clever blend of shooter and puzzle elements that's driven by a devious, dark narrative.
Superhot is an intense and thrilling blend of action and puzzle with a solid bit of narrative to tie its murderous mysteries together into something worth seeing.
A crafty base concept and careful execution make Superhot one of the most intriguing games to come from the recent class of indie-developed shooters. Its bizarre setting and puzzle-like approach are refreshingly original and hopefully something the team will now expand upon following Superhot's early success.
Superhot is a fascinatingly unique take on the shooter genre. Its time manipulation mechanics truly alter the gameplay, making it feel more like a puzzle game than a standard shooter. Great visual and audio design push the game to even higher levels, but the experience might feel a bit short for those who aren't total completionists.
There are speed runs, challenges and endless survival modes to add longevity, but it takes a special kind of game to provide such a lean playtime with such self-assured verve. That is Superhot all over: stylish, confident and perfectly formed.
The game continues to utilize its brilliant concept, and despite a few shortcomings, this game had me glued to the screen in ways I haven't been engaged in since last year's GOTY contenders.
Superhot is a shining example of how to build a game around a single clever game mechanic. Its story mode is short, but the unlockable Endless and Challenge modes provide plenty of worthwhile reasons to go back for more.
Regardless of the limited content, SUPERHOT is certainly one of the most innovative FPS games I've played in recent years, and well worth playing for anyone who's tired of the same old formula.
A uniquely innovative shooter with imagination to spare, there is nothing quite like Superhot.
SUPERHOT is excellent. It may lack the physicality of its virtual reality alter-ego, but it makes up for this with a mind-bending story and an on-point menu system. The slow-motion shooting is still super satisfying, and the added locomotion makes for a different kind of cadence to the PlayStation VR version. Buy both editions if you can, as they complement each other nicely and are unmissable in our humble opinion. Now, tell all of your friends…
