Cybarian The Time Travelling Warrior
Cybarian The Time Travelling Warrior may remind you of Conan the Barbarian at first glance. That is until the warrior disappears and time travels to the future! In this game, you’ll be hacking and slashing your way around a cyberpunk future. This is a cool looking game, but is it a fun one? Here is my review of Cybarian The Time Travelling Warrior for Nintendo Switch!
Cybarian The Time Travelling Warrior is an action platformer with a heavy emphasis on the action. The main character is a warrior from long ago who gets transported to a Cyberpunk future. And thats basically the game’s story. Cybarian is introduced with a nice cutscene before you press start. When you’re in the actual game, there isn’t much story to speak of but in this type of game, its really the gamplay that matters.
I’m still not sure if I’m swinging my sword right. I keep seeing an X above my head like I’m doing something wrong with that sword. Cybarian’s combat is a bit tricky, especially its boss battles. The platforming is pretty good though. Cybarian does have good controls and it is a fun game. I do wish the game was easier, but I still enjoyed it and think action platformer fans will like it.
Meanwhile, the game’s graphics are really good. Cybarian has scan lines turned on by default to make the game look like an older game. I think this was neat but I recommend turning off the scan lines. Cybarian looks so much better without them. It is an excellent looking 2D game!
Cybarian The Time Travelling Warrior is a really good game overall. Its combat isn’t easy but its still a fun game. And I love its graphics! If you like 2D action platformers and you’re looking for one with a Conan-like hero, then you should seek out this game.
Cybarian The Time Travelling Warrior gets an 8.0 out of 10.
