Critic Reviews for Thumper (VR)
Thumper’s brutal, breakneck speed and precision-based musical action kept me entranced for all nine of its bizarre, nightmarish stages, which contained enough nuanced high score-chasing tricks to demand several replays already. To really master Thumper’s many layers of rhythm-based mechanisms would take much more time than the 10 or so hours it takes to complete the first time – and that’s a challenge that I eagerly accept.
Challenging to a fault, Thumper provides few reasons to indulge its difficulty
Thumper's unrelenting speed and menacing percussion are overwhelming, seeping into your subconscious in the best way possible.
Thumper remains a true VR classic, and its upgrade for PSVR2 makes it the best place to experience its violent audio charms.
Thumper is a great rhythm action game, with strong visuals, fantastic design, and more speed than Keanu Reeves on a bus rigged to explode.
Ultimately, what you're left with is the definitive version of the game, even with the changes being relatively slight. It was one of the best games on PSVR back in the day, and the same can be said for its port on PSVR2.
Thumper VR delivers such an amazing sense of speed and edge of your seat gameplay that you’re instantly hooked.
Thumper made my heart race in a way no other rhythm game has before. I really like it.
