If you’re intrigued, or better still, defiant and cocky after reading the preceding text, then 1001 Spikes was made for you. If the preceding text frightens you, then chances are that you wouldn’t particularly enjoy this decadent blend of frustration and reward. On any of the current gaming platforms, which 1001 Spikes happily spreads itself between (excluding mobile and last-gen consoles), the game stands as one of the most difficult trials that any dedicated gamer can face. The easily frustrated and the impatient will be quickly weeded out by this game, a game that truly separates the men and women from the boys and girls. Make no mistake though, even the most skilled gamers will die, die, die, and die some more throughout 1001 Spikes. It’s one of those games that you can’t put down by sheer virtue of the fact that you want to prove yourself. Thanks to most of the levels being ingeniously crafted, with failure being solely on the player, even given the hyper-difficult disposition of the game, 1001 Spikes is addictive in its punishment. It even draws inspiration from a time in the 80’s when virtually all home console video games were designed to hate you.ĭespite its mean spirit however, retro chic developer, Nicalis, best known for games like Cave Story and Ikachan, has crafted 1001 Spikes in such a way that begs you to defy its harsh edge.
It’s the kind of game that is designed from its very core to hate you.
