Critic Reviews for Double Cross
Excellent platforming action elevates Double Cross, but weak combat and a half-baked mystery-solving element keep it from reaching great heights.
We'd be lying if we said that Double Cross wasn't disappointing; after the raucously enjoyable platforming offered up by Runbow, this is an underwhelming follow up that never manages to hit the same highs. Though Double Cross has an interesting premise and some exceptionally well-designed levels, it's weighed down by a series of ho-hum gameplay elements that aren't adequately fleshed out and give the overall experience something of an identity crisis.
Definitely not the best game, but definitely not the worst, at least you wouldn't wind up being doubly cross after playing this.
Double Cross for PC and Nintendo Switch feels quite unoriginal and bland despite coming from the team that gave us the excellent Runbow.
Double Cross is an up and down ride, but I can’t shake the feeling that there’s another dimension out there.
With some better combat choices and animation this could have been a revolutionary release from 13AM Games, but even without that lofty goal it's a definite safe buy for anyone wanting a great new platformer.
While the ending was predictable early on, the journey to get there was captivating and fun, and the various unlockable abilities will surely make each players experience a unique one.
13AM Games' Double Cross has some solid ideas but it can't quite deliver an outstanding platformer.
