Title
Fiquei absolutamente impressionado com a qualidade desse jogo. Esperava uma mera tech demo pro Dualsense, mas o que Astro’s Playroom entrega é um dos jogos de plataforma 3D mais inventivos dos últimos anos.

Além do ótimo level design e ideias criativas, a atenção ao detalhe nos cenários é espetacular, digno de um Super Mario Odyssey ou coisa parecida. Os desenvolvedores se esforçaram muito para criar uma homenagem bonita, bem humorada e digna da história do Playstation. Um deleite do começo ao fim, pena que termine tão rápido.

Title
As though the great 90s collectathon boom never ended. The kind of game I spend ever single moment waiting for someone to make in the modern climate. And, of course, it's a tech demo stuffed with as many craven elements of self promotion from Sony possible! But the core gameplay, razor sharp and super satisfying all the way through, is so strong that I can't help but look the other way. Also, as gimmicky as the motion controls sections are, my favourite game ever contains just as many if not more of them, so I'm down for some goofy stuff like this. Legitimately the best PS5 exclusive that I'm aware of, and one of the better 3d platformers not made by Nintendo this century. Comparing this to the last tech demo I played, Nintendo Land for wii u, is pretty laughable, and that game kinda slaps!

Title
An incredibly fun tech demo displaying the different uses of the PS5 controller. Besides the climbing part, I had fun throughout each of the different levels, and trying to collect every artifact from the Playstation series was a fun twist. Really unique ways to use the controller, and I would like to see more of some of what I saw implemented in some big budget games.

Title
Wonderful but too short
An amazing and insanely cute and playful little game that perfectly shows what the PS5 is capable of. The game itself and its four maps are super creative and inspiring. It never gets boring or dull, and the difficulty is just right for this type of game. It should’ve been a lot longer though, I’ve already played through it twice, since I bought the PS5 a month ago.

The DualSense controller is a revelation in this game. It’s like discovering a completely new sense, and makes this game something very very special. None of the other PS5 games have come close to these elaborate vibrations and effects. The feeling of ice skating or pulling a wire from the ground or shooting balls from a toy gun. All these things feel totally distinct and there are so many of them. Fantastic design and I truly hope that other games will be able to come close to this.

Story: 3/5 - Not much of a story but the whole nostalgic Playstation showcase thing is great!
Graphics: 4/5 - Looks very clean. Nothing out of the ordinary but perfect for a game like this.
Play feeling: 5/5 - Absolutely sublime feeling.
Aesthetics: 4/5 - Love the way it looks, very colorful and Pixar-esque.
Level design: 4.5/5
Menus/Speed: 5/5
Side things/missions: 3.5/5 - Collecting points is maybe not the greatest but exploring the maps is entertaining.

4.5/5

Title
Impressive tech demo.
Relaxing game that pays tribute to Play Station's history and showcases the potential of the new controller. It might be a little too easy if you are into platformers.

Title
More Than Just A Tech Demo
Astro's Playroom comes pre-installed in every PS5 system. It's meant to be a tech demo, simply showing off the power of the PS5 and the controller. But it was more fun than I thought it would be

You essentially travel through the interior of the PS5 and go through interesting challenges along the way. Each level ends with you collecting a PlayStation system. From the PS1 to the PS4. You can also find other things to go with previous consoles such as the controller. It really brings you back through the history of PlayStation.

The gameplay is silky smooth and feels great, the graphics are beautiful, and Astro and the other robots are adorable.

There's also plenty of easter eggs in the game. You can find a robot dressed as Dante from the Devil May Cry games. You can also find the Buster Sword that Cloud uses in Final Fantasy VII. There's more easter eggs in this that would make this review too long

Astro's Playroom is more than just a tech demo. It's a really neat flashback to PlayStation's history and is simply a fun game that has loads of charm

    only watched for a few minutes, but it's really nice to see 3D platformers of this archetype still being made. it would be awesome to see a larger scale version of this like on the level of the modern 3D Marios.

    How is this game so good. I got the same level enjoyment and wonder from it that I got from Super Mario Odyssey, and it's just a PlayStation commercial?!? I need more.
