However, the game’s few shortcomings don’t really detract from the fun you’ll have playing Infestor. The concept is a lot of fun, the levels are cleverly designed, and the graphics have that charming old school feel that Ravenous is known for. As it stands, Infestor is good. But with a few tweaks it could be great.

Critic reviews
- 7.0Infestor is a puzzle platformer from Ravenous Games that has some interesting ideas, but just never really capitalizes on them.
- 8.0Infestor is built on a good, solid foundation. Hopefully we’ll see future updates that add new levels, more puzzle variety, and maybe some additional challenges and/or surprises. Don’t be afraid to give it a whirl right now, though. Infestor is one pile of biohazardous lime Jell-O who’s worth knowing.
- The core concept of Infestor has potential. It could have been a quirky puzzle platformer, but there’s no challenge here. It’s far too easy, and there’s too little variation in what you’re required to do. Unfortunately, I’m recommending you avoid possession.
- 6.0Infestor is a puzzle-platform snack that won’t leave a bad taste, but won’t fill you up either. Sure, popping humans never gets old, but it’s the bits between the popping that feel familiar and not particularly challenging. On balance, you might be better infesting your money elsewhere.
- 8.0Inhabit the bodies of humans that have one innate quality needed to get you to the next human or the end of the level. It's short, to the point, and fun.
