Our take on Super Meat Boy 3D
The focus on direct reflex platforming leaves little room for slower exploration or broader systems. Its escalating difficulty and repeated deaths suit players willing to retry precise sections, but can feel narrow for those seeking a more varied adventure.
What is Super Meat Boy 3D?
Super Meat Boy 3D is a 3D platformer starring an animated cube of meat who tries to rescue his girlfriend from an evil fetus in a jar.
The game focuses on direct, reflex-based movement across stages filled with wall jumps, buzz saws, collapsing caves, trash pools, forests, dumps, and high-tech forges. Its difficulty rises from hard to extremely demanding, with repeated deaths built into the challenge. Alongside the main levels, it includes boss fights, hidden secrets, and Dark World stages with an even higher difficulty. The game also features a soundtrack and presents its retro-style platforming in 3D.
