Critic reviews
- GamesCreed7.0Sockventure is a short and silly precision platformer that, while not the pinnacle of innovation, is still a good time for those who enjoy the genre.
- 3rd-strike.com8.0Sockventure is a great platforming game with a cute little story and polished graphics and sounds. The gameplay feels slightly unfair every now and then, but is otherwise balanced out well with smooth mechanics and gradually increasing difficulty. With Sockventure, if you know what classic platforming is about, you know exactly what you’re going to get.
- Switchaboo9.0Sockventure isn’t just good: it’s an absolutely fantastic game - an excellent challenge-platformer which excels in basically everything it should. The negative points are minor grievances, very small blotches on what is a shining example of its genre. It focuses on all the things that make challenge platformers great and delivers on all of them, while giving enough window dressing and polish to other areas to the point where nothing important feels entirely neglected. It’s fun, engaging, challenging and rewarding from minute one. There is no better way to put it: Sockventure has, indeed, knocked my socks off.
