    Blazing Beaks is one of the Switch’s hidden eShop gems. Regardless of the potentially steep learning curve, the game always leads to lots of laughs. It’s best played with a group of friends to get the most enjoyment out of all the content that the game has to offer. If Blazing Beaks even remotely catches your eye, it is well worth a purchase.

    Blazing Beaks has a great combination of challenge and humour, with an adorable art style and plenty of surprises.

    Risk-reward mechanics find a colorful ally in Blazing Beaks. This indie roguelike offers great replayability and a very fun local multiplayer.

    Blazing Beaks is a lot of things, all at once, splitting focus between a rogue-lite Story mode and twin-stick local multiplayer shenanigans. Neither mode is perfect, and there might be stronger options available if you’re only interested in one of these genres, but there’s an astonishing level of replay value here, across the board. You’d be quackers to miss it.

    There may be many twin-stick roguelikes but very few are as enjoyable as Blazing Beaks with its charming visuals and tight gameplay.

    A roguelite twin stick adventure granted with a fantastic local multiplayer competitive madness. Not the best of its class, but a very good one.

    Blazing Beaks is a good first venture into console games for Applava. This team clearly loves the twin-stick roguelike genre, and despite needing some fine-tuning, I enjoyed my time with it. With just a few tweaks, this would be a solid recommendation to fans of the genre.

I love this rogue-lite twin-stick shooter!!! It's creative, clever, and just genuine fun to play. The daily challenges and global leader boards keep it interesting. It takes a long time to get through all of the item/gun unlocks, but that just encourages you to keep playing the addictive gameplay loop! Expand

    This game is so fun and so underrated! Really fun to play solo but also as a couch co-op. Do yourself a favour and get it!

    Rogue lite joli, rapide et assez addictif avec la possibilité de jouer en coopération (à deux) ce qui est assez rare pour être signalé. LesRogue lite joli, rapide et assez addictif avec la possibilité de jouer en coopération (à deux) ce qui est assez rare pour être signalé. Les objets sont alors différents et adaptés pour un jeu à deux, ce qui offre un vrai plus à l’expérience multijoueur.

    Les sessions sont très rapides. Je vous conseille d’aller sur le wiki pour bien comprendre le mécanisme de risque/récompense.
