Clive and Wrench sometimes looked out of place which is weird cause stylistic cohesion is generally not what I’m thinking about when playing a platformer. There’s these records all over the stage and they are all really cool parodies of real album covers and those album covers were clearly made with a lot of attention which make things like an overly detailed pizza slice stand out when clearly that same attention wasn’t put into it.

I genuinely feel rather bad going on and on about the game's flaws, but the most exceptional thing about Clive 'N' Wrench is the effort that went into bringing it into existence. I'd love to say that it's a great, or even a good, game, but it's pretty unexceptional even by the standards of low-budget indie 3D platformers.

It is an ungodly flawed game in need of some patches, without a doubt. Some of its design choices are questionable, to say the least. Yet, somehow, I still liked Clive ‘N’ Wrench way more than expected. By no means was this up to par with some of the other love letters to the collectathon genre released over the past decade, but its charm and creativity somewhat outweighed its cons.

I did overall have a good time with Clive ‘N’ Wrench, but between all the technical issues and how so many of the game’s challenges seem a bit thrown in, the experience ends up somewhat damaged. Most of it’s fixable, though. This is a good game that was simply released before it was ready.

In comparison, the most unique thing that Clive ‘N’ Wrench has going for it is its focus on speed and its wider pool of moves, which doesn’t feel like a defining feature. How much that bothers you is going to depend on what you go into Clive ‘N’ Wrench expecting.

Clive 'N' Wrench is inconsistent from start to finish, with some levels being good fun and others being poor chores. Combat is lackluster and the platforming can be very annoying, though Clive's limited abilities serve their purpose in the wider levels without the need for pinpoint precision.
