Against All Odds (Microwave Games)

This game is basically Ninja Warrior with blood and gore. Sounds like a fun concept but the final product is lackluster to say the least. The game seems to have had a lot more things going for it at one point, including multiplayer and custom levels. Now you're left with just a barebones character customizer and single player that doesn't even have a quick restart option.

why did they remove multiplayer. Like that was one of the core parts of the game. Why do we even still have punch and sheal mecahnics if there is not multiplayer option

I really liked this game when it was still multiplayer. Now I don't play it anymore and I can't even recommend it to anyone, other than if you enjoy completing these Ninja Warrior type stuff alone

The result is a gameplay loop built on trial and error. Mastering each track requires memorizing hazard patterns, optimizing jump timing, and learning when to risk a shortcut th…
