  Blazing Beaks is a fun, but very tough, game. You need fast reflexes and good decision making if you are going to finish a playthrough of the story mode. I found the quandary of taking an artefact with a penalty for a chance of a better boon later fascinating as it’s based on your confidence in your ability to survive until you can reap the benefits. It’s just a shame that you cannot play the main story online with a friend or play multiplayer online

  Blazing Beaks was a nice little surprise and I thoroughly recommend it for fans of the genre. It loses a few points in my eyes for a rather bland soundtrack and a complete lack of narrative. Overall, though, it’s a fun little game and worthy to sit among the others.

  Blazing Beaks is one of those randomly generated games that might suck up some of your time before you know it. Each round you try to win is balanced, increasingly difficult, and well designed, even though you probably won’t want to admit it as you die by an unforeseen explosion. There’s enough to do for you solo to figure out what’s going on, and enough for multiple players as well. It’s too bad the Switch’s version doesn’t give the same smooth experience as on the PC version, and the game could use a little bit more variation early on.

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

  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 is a crazy adventure where you'll find yourself fighting monsters and searching for artifacts. There's an endless line-up of enemies for you to shoot and blast through. A cute and charming world that increases in difficulty, and as you progress through the levels you’ll be hallmarked with plenty of surprises.
