    Geometry Wars 3: Dimensions' Adventure Mode is the best way to play Geometry Wars. Engaging, addictive, hard to master. If you love Geometry Wars, you can't miss this entry in the series.

    Geometry Wars 3: Dimensions is a great new entry in the series. It offers plenty of things for all players, as the Adventure mode draws in new fans, the Classic mode appeals to veterans, and the leaderboards manage to fuel their competitive natures.

    Geometry Wars 3: Dimensions is a near perfect game let down only by the demanding mission padding and a soundtrack that represents a slight step backwards from its predecessors.

    Gorgeous, compulsive shooting action with incredible depth, but the score battles can be mismatched. [Feb 2015, p.76]

    Geometry Wars 3: Dimensions is not an improvement of the perfect game we know so well. But, it is the only way to experience the genius that this twin-stick-shooter is on modern platforms.

    An enjoyable entry in the Geometry Wars franchise that manages to add new life into the series, but keeps fans happy with returning classics.

    Generous and hypnotic, Geometry Wars takes on a new dimension with superb graphics, 3D levels and new multiplayer modes. Too bad, however, that the Adventure mode is so difficult and that the quality of the soundtrack is not as good as we hoped.

Controls,There is nothing revolutionary here with the mechanics but it happens to be the best twin stick shooter I have ever played. Controls, gameplay and graphics are all excellent. Mixes things up a lot in adventure mode and really keeps you wanted to progress. Only knock would be that it could use more music tracks as after hours of playing you really don't want to hear the songs anymore.… Expand

    The    This is a marvellous twin-stick arcade blast-up! It's so addictive, has many cool game modes, insane scoring, and intense challenges.

    The visuals really draw you in, and the screen can end up total chaos, sometimes you'll wonder how your brain can even manage.

    It's silky smooth to play and designed by people who really understand the genre. If you love other superb twin-stick games like Nex Machina (incredible!) and Atomine (classy, chilled and a bit different) then you'll also love this.

    GREAT game!    … Expand

I already gave this game a ten because it has great graphics, incredible gameplay and a banging soundtrack and superb effects to boot. They have given us twice the game, now, for free. New modes, eight new enemies, more challenge, a different art style in hard mode, an extra drone and special. Incredible that we get all of this for free and it works as if it had been there all along.

Arenas can be spherical, cubes, peanut-shaped, and more, but all feel extremely cramped given the volume of enemies coming at you. It feels like the devs realize how tough the game is, since you don't lose your score multiplier by dying, firepower boosts are only obtained through destroying a specific enemy set, and many challenges are unlimited life with a time limit.

    The classic game is included, and the core gameplay is still excellent, but this feels a bit more in the hardcore camp than usual.    … Expand
