Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout Reviews
Fall Guys is battle royale at its silliest as you waddle your way through a technicolor game show.
Fall Guys invites players to Wipeout style tracks with different characters. I can say that it is one of the most entertaining games of the year.

Compete with 60 other players in 3 to 5 random mini-game rounds. At every round, players are eliminated and ONLY THE LAST ONE STANDING wins the crown. There are 25 different kinds of rounds, most of them you will compete against all players and some are team-based. With 3 buttons (jump, dive, and grab) you will race, dodge, chase, use logic, push and grab to qualify for the next round. RNG plays a huge role in the game and TO HAVE FUN WHILE PLAYING FALL GUYS be open to laughing about everything, even when you are the loser.
If you look through the lens of a “Games as a Service” type of deal, Fall Guys already has a great foundation to be built upon, but at this moment the joy and fun can be snuffed out due to its repetitive nature and lack of more minigames and meaningful progression.

Fall Guys may not be the game that I put 100 hours into, but I’m sure happy with the time I’ve put in. Mediatonic and Devolver Digital took the world a bit by surprise with this one. I only hope there are more surprises in store for this floppy, casual game.
...failure is part of the fun, and Fall Guys makes failing so much fun, that I’ve never been happier to be a fervent failure in an online video game.
Fall Guys is a great time whether you are playing alone or with friends and family, though it can feel repetitive after you've seen all that it has to offer.
Fall Guys is flat out fun. It is a must play with friends and has plenty of room to grow. It's silly and competitive in all the right ways. I'm excited to see it's future.
Fall Guys fails in every way as a video game, but its enormous ability to interconnect people makes it an epochal product. The months and years will tell us whether Devolver Digital's game is a flash in the pan or a phenomenon, but for the moment it has cheered the summer of millions of people.

For those who need an explanation, you and 59 other players are these weird, pill looking characters that you can unlock all different kinds of outfits and stuff for, and you all participate in trials that require you to be the best in order to progress to the next round. For example, 60 of you all together at the start line and ahead of you are about 20 see saws, you need to get across the see saws to get to the finish line, but of course you have 59 other people also crossing different sides of the see saw so it can either work in your favour or completely blow up in your face.
Fall Guys is an absolute delight. It feels like a natural evolution of the battle royale genre that abandons the expectation of violence and exchanges it for a bright, colourful multiplayer experience that sinks its hooks in and refuses to let go. Fall Guys is an the perfect example of taking a genre that feels like it has been milked to death but turning it on it's head, and giving it a fresh coat of paint. It's an experience that no other game offers, and will keep you playing from the second you pick it up.
Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is properly crazy and entertaining, yet lacks something overtime. More mini-games and local-play would definitely benefit it, but it is amazing fun nonetheless.

If you haven’t played Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout yet, I strongly recommended everyone reading this to watch a Twitch stream or YouTube video. The colors are bright and inviting, the gameplay is easy to grasp, and though I don’t think it will be everybody’s cup of tea, I think that most gamers will find at least SOME fun to be had in the trails of the jelly beans. The team at Mediatonic seem dedicated to this game’s success and support, and there is truly so much potential for this game. I can see myself a year or two from now, having a wardrobe full of unique colors and costumes, playing through as-of-yet unreleased minigames, still trying after that elusive crown, and still laughing each time I get haphazardly tossed to my doom. For me, the asking price is an easy investment to what I envision will be endless hours of fun. At the end of 2020, there will be a lot to look back on. Mostly bad, but some good, and I think Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout will be high on my list of good.
Fall Guys is absurdly charismatic and fun, a guaranteed recommendation for any type of player.

The truth is, Fall Guys feels like that quick little game you boot up between other bigger games, its the little snack break in-between titles or the one you play with something else in the background. Much like Tetris 99, it’s best to play Fall Guys in small bursts throughout the day rather than a marathon session.
Fall Guys is a bright, fast-paced, and relatively simple game that is a delight to play. Whilst I can’t see myself playing this game for hours on end, it will be a go-to when I require a pick me up while also being great for when people are allowed to get together for parties again!
Fall Guys Season 1 is a great place to unite the expanded player base, and with the light-hearted nature of the game, it is still nice to reap some rewards even when you aren’t collecting crowns. For some silly nights that can turn sweaty at any moment, I have had plenty of laughs and find it easy to pick up and play even after a few days off.
In an era swamped with Battle Royales, Mediatonic’s cute-chaos gameshow earns a spot among the finalists.
