Description: Pangman takes you inside a VR classic arcade game experience, where your goal is to burst spheres by using a pair of guns that transform into hooks when you throw them. Complete 140 story mode levels in individual or cooperative campaign, and enjoy frantic multiplayer games with up to 8 players.
Review: On the whole ‘Pangman’ is a fun little arcade-style shooter with the theme of an arcade shooting booth which is a nice touch. But it is the gameplay that really lets this game down. Sure, the game has over 100 levels and a good selection of multiplayer modes with up to 8 players at once. But the gameplay never really changes. It’s the same arcade booth style over and over, no variety, not change and sadly it doesn’t matter how many levels or modes the game has if it is the same thing all the time! Oddly the game is well made and looks good most of the time, but I can’t recommend this for £9.29 and would struggle to justify a price much more than a few quid max. If you like arcade-style shooters this is worth a look, but I wouldn’t pay much for it due to the lack of gameplay variety.
