The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
This thread has been linked to the game 'Blinx the time sweeper'.
I think this game is important enough to warrant it's own thread - (?)
Funny thing is, I ain't got it yet, but I'm off to town now to buy it :)
I'll post my first impressions and what I generally think are "claws & flaws" later.

The final boss sequence is painfully difficult....

I bought Blinx today. The time thingy was confusing at first, but so far I really like it.
Blinx is cool.
Blinx is crap.
(?)
That's down to personal opinion.
But one thing is certain: *Blinx is rock hard*
It's starts of easy, but get to the later levels and it is seriously tricky.
The Everwinter levels and the levels beyond are damned difficult.
I've not finished it yet, but I think I'm near the end - completed 21 levels and 7 boss battles so far.
I've just posted a review, if anyone's interested.

Yeah, Blinx will appeal to gamers who like those kind of games. Games which are best described as "quirky".
I'm finding it very addictive. I'm up to The City of Lost Time, and it's getting very tricky - which is a good thing.
It requires quite a bit of commitment and skill to get the most out of it.
It's a cool little game.

The review scores are strange due to peoples taste in games.
Some reviewers think "Oh this is pants because it is'nt like Mario" which is totally unfair and stupid.
I liked it when i played it.

It's a strange game.
It doesn't have the epic adventuring quality of a Mario game.
I'd describe as "curious, quaint, novel, eccentric".
A friendly kind of game.
I can understand why the review scores range from the 90s to the 50s.
It'll become a cult favourite, like say JSR, Nights and Rez.
It has a Sega feel about it.
