Dan “The Retro Gamer” Rother
The short review, great idea but flawed too much. I like the idea of multiple games. Like actually an arcade that used to exist around me. But most don't function well enough at least for me. Lag is an issue for multiple games. Controls can be described more as jittery. An achievements like this are almost impossible. Maybe on a higher end device this would work better but even then some achievements are difficult to gain.

The 2.8 star rating is insane to me. I decided to play this because I thought it would be funny to try the worst rated game in the PlayPass. Yes some of the controls are a little clunky, and I wish it was easier to pull up the relevant "how to play" for each game, but this is a collection of arcade games that really feels like going to an actual arcade - switching from machine to machine with a bunch of quarters or nickels, dying in some once before moving on and staying at some a bit longer.

Although the presentation is great, it's really let down by its controls. For instance, it's very hard to steer in the outrun-style game. The sensitivities in it and other games just seem weird. I also wish you could change control style in each game. Like to a d-pad in games that use swiping. Another example of weird controls is that the Qix-style game doesn't let you slide from button to button (you have to lift finger off screen first). This should at least be an option.
