A shooter full of action and bullets with a very simple premise: to complete a few objetives in order to unlock new levels. It adds also some personalization in order to make it a little different.

If you liked Neon Chrome but wanted a more set and less random experience, Jydge is the game for you.

JYDGE is an enjoyable twin-stick shooter that has a fun and destructive core mechanic and a lot of replay value. If you're a huge fan of twin-stick shooters it'd be a crime not to give this one a try and judge it for yourself.

Jydge is a game halfway between a bullet hell and an arcade shooter with zenithal view with good ideas but poor in content, with closed environments and with a little variety of enemies. Despite its flaws is a very fun and challenging game thanks to its gameplay.

Jydge is superb in its approach to a niche genre. It's violent, it bends to your particular whims thanks to an onslaught of constantly available upgrades and it never takes itself too seriously as you dispense instant jystice.

Much like Neon Chrome, JYDGE operates by the book. It's a mediocre experience that fails to stand out within the top-down shooter genre. Looking beyond the uninspired themes and design – not to forget the excessive use of justice-related puns – the major problems can be linked to the casual tempo of the gameplay. Further issues come from the imprecise controls, leaving you lacking the necessary precision when moving and aiming. In a genre where you want to quickly and efficiently eliminate all enemy threats, this title rarely makes you feel like a hardened law enforcer.

JYDGE is a rather simple game that offers a great character control and wide-ranging customization options. It doesn't go much further than this, as the game also turns out to be quite short and falls victim to a lack of variety after clearing some of the maps. Overall, JYDGE feels like many of its goals have not been fully completed.

All the fans of top-down shooters will spend long, exciting hours with JYDGE. However, it's no Hotline Miami, so the rest should rather wait for a discount in PS Store.

From top to bottom, JYDGE is a heck of a run-and-gunner. It takes a minimalistic approach to story to give players the simple charm of the futuristic law enforcer that reminds of good '80s and '90s movies of the sort. Then it melds that environment with a slick combat system that keeps on giving and taking until your jydge is a cavalcade of murderous tools with which to deal out deadly justice, and for which every player will find their own preference.

I had a great experience with the game, and being a fan of such movies like Robocop and Judge Dredd certainly adds to my enjoyment I had with all the action going on in JYDGE.

JYDGE is a strong entry in the twin-stick shooter genre. It employs a multitude of systems and features to create a fully customizable experience. Winning is not just a matter of building the ultimate killing machine. Each objective can require a different loadout, so there's reason enough to test a variety of weapons and gadgets. The bland yet serviceable visuals convey the action quite well. Aside from a few annoying objectives, this game is consistently enjoyable.

JYDGE is a competently made shooter that can be a ton of fun to play. However, due to poor presentation and limiting mission structure, it doesn't quite reach the upper echelon of the genre.

JYDGE is a very fun sorta-prequel to Neon Chrome that is a good upgrade over said game thanks to its handcrafted levels and great replay value. Sure, it has its focus set on the speedrunning community, but thanks to its difficulty settings it offers something for players of all skill levels. If you're looking for a new action shooter on PS4 and don't mind some violence and gore here and there, then you should check out JYDGE!

JYDGE is a well polished title that will keep you coming back for more and more, whether it's the soundtrack or the multiple ways to approach a situation this is a game that demands you give it the justice it deserves. With non stop action and seemingly never ending progression JYDGE stands out from its fellow twin stick shooters making it a must have for fans of the genre.

Jydge is a compelling game that has some clever ideas and a huge amount of customization. Unfortunately it's held back by a demanding progression system that lends itself to grinding and replaying missions ad nauseam. There is definitely fun to be had with the solid gameplay, a huge amount of unlockables and challenging subgoals, but for those hoping to see the credits roll, prepare yourself to replay the same missions time and time again.

As a shooter JYDGE isn't something special, yet strengthening your own Judge Dredd/RoboCop hybrid by doing side-quests and unlocking additional toys to play with can be quite the addicting experience for the few hours that this will last.

In the end, this Jydge has been found guilty of conspicuous padding and needless repetition, and my sentence will see it placed in a comfy resort prison with all the other decent games when it could have walked free this very day as one of the good ones.

JYDGE is a great game in the Top Down Shooter style, despite its short campaign with only 20 missions, the form of progress with a lot of replays can make the gameplay time a little bigger. Nevertheless, undoubtedly the infinity amount of perks, guns, specials and bonus guns are the highlight of the game, combining a lot of perks, guns modifiers and specials creates a unique JYDGE to each mission. If you liked Neon Chrome or Crimsonland, JYDGE is a game for you.
