Now that most gamers have plenty of time on our hands, they could do a lot worse than snagging Ego Protocol: Remastered on the Switch for its $4.99 price tag. It’s a great price considering the amount of levels available, so long as you are willing to experience a glorified mobile game on the Switch.
Ego Protocol: Remastered is competent, only in the sense that it works. Outside of that, the game is an uninteresting test of your ability to endure apathy.
Ego Protocol: Remastered is a puzzle title which provides more irritation than it does satisfaction. The fiddly tile-sliding proves so much of a chore that there’s little to no motivation to go on and get three-star scores on each level.
Ego Protocol: Remastered is a tile-sliding Lemmings-like that offers about as much excitement as a geriatric knitting club. Outside of some temperamental controls and poor use of its sci-fi theme however, there’s not much to highlight as a real issue. It’s not offensive enough to incite mass riots but it still feels like a chore every step of the way.
SummaryEgo Protocol: Remastered is a mix of classic platformer and logical game with retro, handmade graphics. Be smart and quick, solve puzzles and avoid traps! Guide your robot safely!
