  5.0

  In Extremis is a game I really wanted to like, some of the ideas and retro throwback nods are delightful and very well executed. But then there is the overly bizarre levels which are not only extremely difficult to see and survive through, but literally left me with with large dots in front of my eyes after playing. I would like to note that the soundtrack throughout In Extremis is fantastically composed and add real atmosphere to certain sections of the game but this isn’t enough to save this sadly flawed and messy retro-inspired shooter.

  7.0

  This is a slick package with excellent production values. The levels are enjoyable and highly replayable. It is unlikely that In Extremis will win over gamers who don't play this type of game, but fans are urged to give this one a try, which proves an excellent palette cleanser to those who have perhaps become a bit jaded with the genre.
