Reed Remastered doesn’t do much of anything to leave a positive impression. Platformers (even one-hit-kill ones like this) are a dime a dozen on the Nintendo Switch. How does this one hope to stand out with the multiple ways it comes up short? I was hoping for better; I didn’t have fun playing it. If you’re still curious, check out the 99 cent mobile version.

About
Once in a beautiful and mysterious world, something strange happened...
The old supercomputer that created this world started to break down, it started to lose information cubes. It needed help to calibrate the cubes in order to reboot the system so it created a small creature named Reed!

Critic reviews
- 6.5Don’t mistake Reed Remastered for a quick or easy indie title (or achievement grab – I didn’t mention earlier that this game is published by Ratalaika Games) because there is more to it than that. It’s a solid platformer that focuses more on mechanics than aesthetics, and it’s hard enough to challenge any gamer that prides themselves on their reflexes and skills.
- 6.0This cat has a slick approach to pixel art, and a VFX artist was clearly given the rope to do whatever they wanted, loading it with visual fireworks. But the game itself is fine but flavourless, an aggressively average platformer that doesn’t care for ideas, memorable moments or reasons to return.
- Reed Remastered is one of the many hardcore platformers out there giving you slick controls to get through ‘hard-as-nails’ levels. Unfortunately, the game doesn’t have that many stages, and you’ll get to the end before it really sticks with you.
- 7.0Overall, Reed Remastered on Xbox One gives us a pretty sizable amount of content for the small price point. Its minimalist storytelling and world design are great when playing but ultimately wont preoccupy any more time after your first run through. Furthermore, its artificial difficulty turns some of the harder levels from a fun challenge to downright frustrating. This is an easy game to recommend to any platformer fan or achievement hunter but ultimately Reed Remastered fails to make a lasting impression.
- 5.0Reed Remastered poderia ser melhor caso fosse mais consistente na dificuldade e no desenho dos níveis. É um jogo extremamente curto, que se pode terminar em menos de uma hora e a diversão que proporciona pode não ser suficiente para atrair os jogadores. Tem um certo charme, é verdade, mas isso não chega.
