PC Critic Reviews

Everyone’s specific experiences with Peppered will differ, but taken as a whole, I have to imagine that anyone who like platformers will find themselves well-rewarded by this game.

Peppered: an existential platformer is a pleasant surprise in the independent gaming scene. What starts out as a simple platformer with a retro look soon reveals itself to be a profound, critical and absurdly creative experience. It is a game that knows how to play with the language of video games without giving up its message. For those looking for something that goes beyond entertainment and provokes thought — even through the absurd —, Peppered is a sure choice.

PEPPERED: An Existential Platformer has created a world and characters that are so silly and weird that it’s a delight to explore. However, some players may find the replayability tedious and therefore won’t be encouraged to continue to explore once they have died. Clocking in at just a few hours, though, if you love your surreal humour and wacky worlds, I’d give PEPPERED a shot.
