Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players who want a gentle learning curve may hit a wall when movement-system mastery becomes necessary to clear difficult challenges.
- Players who prefer measured traversal may bounce off the uncapped speed and emphasis on chaining moves for faster runs.
- Players looking for a broad story campaign may find the described focus is on movement, kicking, and level challenges.
Our take on Kick Bastards
The clearest sticking point is the movement mastery required to get through difficult challenges. Players who cannot keep up with fast parkour combos may hit that wall before medals or leaderboard runs become a draw.
What is Kick Bastards?
Kick Bastards is a parkour action game about escaping Hell while the Devil pursues the player across dimensions.
Its movement system combines real-world parkour moves with fantastical abilities, and chaining moves can build speed without a stated cap. Kicking is central to combat and interacting with the game’s challenges. The game includes more than 70 levels, with medals to collect and leaderboards for players pursuing high scores.
After completing the levels, two additional modes are available: Spider-person mode adds a grappling hook that attaches to surfaces for swinging, while Super Kick mode gives kicks enough force to propel the player through the air. The challenges are described as varied and difficult, and mastering the movement system is part of progressing through them.
