    It’s not as bad as it’s being touted, nor is it the worst game of the year (I’ve played dozens of vastly worse titles in 2023 alone), but I’d never recommend grabbing this one up in a million years. The fact it’s just wholly mediocre doesn’t even make it worthy of an ironic playthrough, which is almost its biggest sin.

    But against every other metric, Skull Island: Rise of Kong is a turd. It’s a turd the size of which Kong would be proud. And it’s bad in the least entertaining way. It’s an empty series of valleys where it’s easier to get lost than killed. We wanted the kind of bad that is stupid, ridiculous and embarrassing – we might have had fun with that. Dull-bad, though? That’s the worst.

    Skull Island: Rise of Kong, more than anything else, feels like a hollow attempt at cashing in on the Kong brand. The game has no real redeeming quality aside from the fact that it didn’t accidentally set my PC on fire, and it can’t even bother to be the kind of bad where it’s interesting, rather, just being bad enough to be a boring waste of time.
