Xbox One Critic Reviews

Those who have been playing video games for as long as I have will adore what Tamiku has to offer. From its charming visuals to its brilliant arcade-style gameplay, I highly recommend it to any old-school arcade game enthusiast.

For achievement hunters, a purchase of Tamiku on Xbox One is a no brainer. Minimal time investment plus maximum points score most certainly equals a win. For the rest of us, those looking for a game that’s fun to play, this is a much harder sell. While it lasts, it’s fun, there’s no two ways about it, but your time with Tamiku is ultimately over way too soon.

There’s no extra modes, no MP, no leader boards. As a standalone arcade game it’s passable for quick bursts, but the appeal soon wore off and after just an hour or so I’d more than had my fill. As usual, there’s a fairly easy 1000g to find if you’ve the desire to grind the stages, but I can’t see this being a title that’ll stick in your playlist once that last achievement pops.
