Super Meat Boy Forever Review | ‘Narrowly avoids meaty-ocrity’

By Michael Leri

Super Meat Boy Forever review for Nintendo Switch. 

Super Meat Boy was, and still is, one of the greatest 2D platformers of the modern era. Extremely difficult yet extremely fair, the 2010 platformer excelled because of its tight controls and clever level design — the soundtrack and goofy tone were just solid extras. These qualities make Super Meat Boy Forever’s jump…

  • Well-designed levels continually throw new things at the player.
  • Solid controls make its difficulty quite manageable and satisfying.
  • Creative boss fights.
  • Its many level layouts are mostly hidden and not clearly accessible to the player.
  • Auto-running causes a slight disconnect.
  • Mediocre butt rock music.
