  Gunborg: Dark Matters delivers the kind of tough, skill-based experience that is currently en vogue. The various tools in your arsenal are enough to get high combos and more powerful attacks, while the controls give you enough precision to make tricky jumps and dance around your enemies.

  Overall, if you are after a moody, vibrant, and focussed action platformer that can hold your attention throughout, then Gunborg: Dark Matters is definitely one you should be playing, be it in 2022 or beyond. It may be incredibly challenging, it may in essence be basic platforming, but it also brings together well-crafted mechanics, smooth controls, and some fantastic gameplay to create a memorable and enjoyable title well worth your time and money.

  I experienced no issues with lag or latency, and each time my head hit a glowing crystal and I died I knew it was because I pushed the jump button too hard. Movement and aiming felt just as natural using the analog sticks just as much as any other twin-stick shooter; having comfortable and familiar controls can go along way for player success, I think anyway.

  Gunborg is the kind of game that more or less grows on you as you give it more time. You may not be too impressed at first if you’re already a diehard platformer gamer but the more you play it, the more you discover its exciting side.

  Gunborg: Dark Matters is an entertaining platformer with serviceable but somewhat pointless combat. Those looking for something to kill an afternoon with will be able to find it here, as the game only has 15 levels. That being said, more polished and longer experiences are available elsewhere.

  Gunborg: Dark Matters doesn’t do a lot to set itself apart in a crowded field. You can definitely have fun for a few hours, but before you know it, you’ll be getting off this ship with your cargo in tow. Still, while it lasts, Gunborg provides a great looking, excellent sounding, adventure that plays pretty well to boot.
