I don’t know if I should be thankful that these games are so short you can finish them quickly, or sad that these are actually charged $19.99 when they can be finished almost within the trial hour… Regardless, here’s another Reflexive Arcade game that I finished in the past couple of days. I guess with our luggage finally arriving, living amongst boxes makes me want to play more quickie games than usual. However, this is a good one, and I was pleasantly surprised and amused from the first minute to the last.

Just because my new computer is finally set up and going, I decided to try out some Reflexive games ’cause this computer can actually access the website (my old laptop was having trouble loading the site for some reason). I finished the Mortimer’s Time Paraodox first, and then decided to try the Mushroom Age. Boy, was that a mistake. This is perhaps the worst seek-and-find game I’ve had to endure from Reflexive for a while and it just makes me mad thinking about it. Yeah, it’s that bad, so be forewarned.

“Hey, this game is for kids, and it’s not geeky!!” Yeah, yeah, I know that. But truth to be told, the games at Reflexive Arcade are fun, addictive, and while you hate to admit it, you can’t get enough of it. Otherwise, why do you think they keep churning out more and more games? The Reflexive Arcade games can generally be breaking down into several simple categories: seek-and-find, puzzles/arcade, “dash” games, and others. Of course, they also combine them from time to time, and hope to come out with one that you would actually like it and keep buying it. This game is one of those games.
So before I go on, let me just go on record and say that yes, I like Reflexive Arcade games (well, some of it), and yes, I will keep reviewing them whenever I finish one. They will generally be breaking down into the similar review style that I will do with this one, because ultimately, this isn’t some hardcore game that took them over years to make (and for those it really deserve a thorough, detailed review, possibly from both myself and Taro!), but one of those fun quickie games that can be sum up in no more than 5 sentences. Still, they deserve some thoughtful review, and I will try my best to give them to you. With that said….
