Critic Reviews for Project Spark

Project Spark is an imaginative and rewarding game about making games. It's tough, but worth the work.

The most powerful game creation tool ever released for a console, but it's less accessible than it could be and the endless microtransactions leave a predictably sour taste.

Project Spark is whatever you want it be, but realizing your dream project can be difficult to pull off

Surprising and versatile, Project Spark is a great editor that allows you to indulge yourself in creating video games. Simple but not trivial, it allows you to develop many genres of games, however, requiring a few hours of real study and a lot of experimentation.

Project Spark is the most user-friendly game creation suite to date, enabling one to be crafted with less work than anything else like it on the market. There's an impressive array of games to play thanks to the user-creation tools, and there's something for everyone to enjoy as a result.

Microsoft's powerful game builder lets anyone with a bit of patience and a good idea create fun and original games of their own design

Project Spark is a fantastic creation tool with some severe growing pains. The complexity will scare off lots of creators, and the customization items locked behind a pay-wall will deter even more. I worry that no one will be creating gems on the system outside of a few dedicated creators. A game like this lives and dies on its community, and I am not sure Project Spark has the legs to keep things interesting for years to come.
