PlayStation 4 Critic Reviews

Tennis in the Face may not push the PS4 to its limits (I doubt the eventual Vita version will even do that either), but it's still a lot more enjoyable than any number of other more complex games — and quite frankly, I'll take enjoyable over complex any day of the week.

It provides enough entertainment and while it won’t be considered a classic it scratches the itch when you want to play something for a couple of minutes.

A good value for $5 on the PSN. The game has a wide range of levels and is highly replayable, especially if you want to obtain all of the crowns for each level. If you are looking for a low-cost puzzle game, then Tennis in the Face is a good value.

While the game is fun and quirky, it's far better suited to its original home on handhelds. On the PS4, it simply doesn't hold up as a fully fledged game. However, for that price, it certainly is worthwhile if you're looking for something fun to play while waiting for all your other PS4 games' patches and updates.

Lively presentation belies comatose gameplay, but its simplicity serves as a solid palette cleanser between longer gaming rallies.

A nice little experience in-between AAA games, though the repetitive nature might severely limit the fun.

Tennis In The Face provides the same basic satisfaction that Angry Birds does, but lacks heart and charm, resulting in an enjoyable, but unmemorable game.

This is a game you can play only for very short sessions. Otherwise it starts to bore you in no time.

Ultimately, it’s fun but probably more of a tablet experience. The issue comes from the fear that there is a lack of imagination in some segments of the developer community.
