    In other words, Type:Rider undoubtedly has the noblest of intentions, but as a platformer, it sucks. You're much better off staring at some of its screenshots for the 90 minutes or so it would take you to beat the game, because seeing something that looks so wonderful fall apart so badly is just infuriating.

    From fun to frustrating
    Type Rider is a side scrolling platforming Games where you play as a colon
    2 dots
    not the other one
    The game starts out pretty okay, decently fun, learning the history of fonts..
    hopping on letters
    and slowly this 2 hours game gets more and more challenging…
    I really enjoyed the first half..
    it was pretty numbing..
    simple and enjoyable enough…
    a few puzzles thrown in there to get a white dot into a slot and move on…
    But as the challenge increased..
    the less fun the game got…
    These dots aren’t exactly the most fluent characters in platforming game history..
    one will weigh the other down…
    you can balance with the triggers, but throughout my journey I never got the hangout it
    I button mashed my way through the frustrating final level which by the way also feature a game braking bug
    This game has a feature where if youre stuck you can press triangle to restart a section of a chapter…
    Of course id bump this button way too many times on a table while frustratingly trying to balance these characters mid air only to lose my progress…
    And one of these accidental redos set me a good ways back and when I got to the point I was at in the level, it was closed off and I couldn’t progress,
    so I had to exit the level and retry this frustrating section again..
    Most of the few final levels are frustrating as they make you deal with the balancing mechanic that the game never really prepares you for..
    youre just suddenly forced to use it after you learned about it way back in the tutorial…
    But frustrations aside.. none of the levels are really interesting or well design..
    aside for some very few and tiny neat moments in the game..
    The level design really just feels like a bunch of random levels all over the place and nothing more…
    Type Rider is an okay time..
    Nothing Special..
    Nothing youll remember after you reach its credits..
    I give Type Rider
    a 5/10    … Expand

    Avoid it !!!
    Type Rider is so bad that you should avoid it even it is free this month for PS Plus.
    - The overall gameplay is definitely    Avoid it !!!
    Type Rider is so bad that you should avoid it even it is free this month for PS Plus.
    - The overall gameplay is definitely below average 2D-Platformer, nothing special at all.
    - The frame rate is ridiculously unstable in some stageS for such a simple game.
    - It contributes the first crash on my PS Vita.
    - It will be stuck for a few seconds everytime you exit the book menu. And it has a trophy for reading all the books.
    - The control is very ill-designed.
    - The bonus level is frustrated while MEANINGLESS. Why is a cat chasing you in this game anyway?

    Already 100% the game and really hate it. If you have not started it, please don't.    … Expand
