Nintendo Switch User Reviews

I've heard there were 2 versions of this Recharged game - I am only familiar with the 2nd, which is a very fun, faithful adaptation/update to the original game. The power-ups are a ton of fun, and like the original, the gameplay is frantic and exciting. I would dare say that this is THE version of Missile Command to play - there's a surprising amount of variety here, honestly, and we return to it often! This is one of the games my children enjoy playing with me as a multiplayer game. Definitely worth picking up when it's on sale!

For me this game is near perfect. It uses a compact leveling system which gives me just that little bit more motivation to start another quick run. Combined with the gameplay which still holds up today it is an easy recommendation for anyone who liked the original. Alternative options for controls would have been nice though.

This is a review for the 2022 version of the game. I have both the 20 and 22 versions, and the 2020 version was fantastic for what it is on the Switch. The 2022 version however, is a ruined game. For some odd reason they decided to remove the touch screen controls in the 2022 version, forcing you to use the analog stick, and that makes the game nowhere near as fun to play. Honestly, this just isn't a good game if you're controlling it with an analog stick, it feels awkward at best, unplayable at worst. This might be a decent game if you're playing it on a PC where you can use a mouse, but seeing as how the Switch isn't a PC and doesn't have a mouse, that doesn't do me any good. The touch screen controls felt perfect in the original 2020 version, and without it, I found myself only playing this new 2022 version for a short while until I deleted it and went back to the 2020 version. Sadly, I don't think that version is for sale anymore, hence the low score here, as the game you would be buying today is terrible.

it's a lot like afterburner climax. the more you play the stronger you get with upgrades.
