Basement Crawl is a reasonably-priced, well-made game lacking the features to make it a must-have. It simply doesn’t offer enough as a multiplayer-only game to fully recommend as a purchase to anyone other than folks who are dying for Bomberman on the PS4. As a clone of that franchise, it has a refreshingly different art style and motif to it, but would’ve benefited from a single-player campaign to get into the story only hinted at in the opening cinematic.

It’s a simplistic sort of time-killing fun that I would expect out of a cheap mobile game, but as a full featured PS4 title, it feels like there is content missing and a lack of polish. Add to that the confusing nature of what Basement Crawl is really trying to be, the lack of anything to capture interest past playing a few matches, and the multiplayer-only focus which will create limitations when few people are online playing, and you have a game that probably isn’t worth the space on your hard drive.

With just two modes, generic levels, a grating aesthetic, and an interface that damages the play experience, Basement Crawl would lack anything to keep us around even if it functioned soundly. But considering its severe online problems that effectively ruin half of this barebones affair, even desperate Bomberman die-hards itching for a modern fix should leave this rubbish hidden well out of sight. In This Article Basement Crawl Review awful Basement Crawl is a limp, poorly presented, and broken Bomberman clone, and easily the worst PS4 game to date. Andrew Hayward 10 Things We Noticed in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom - Video Feature In this Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom trailer breakdown, Logan Plant highlights Link's four new powers, along with bringing some speculation surrounding some hidden bits tucked away in the gameplay.

Basement Crawl is buggy at worst and unfinished at best. For example, when you pause an offline game, the action pauses, but the match timer keeps ticking down.

Then there’s the issue of the game’s awful instability: It’s glitchy, buggy, and just poorly put together. When you combine everything, you get a monumentally disappointing experience that really isn’t worth the price of admission. Plain ol’ nostalgia will only get you so far, Bloober Team. The Good: Some simple fun to be had. The Bad: Seriously lacking technical elements.
