The Gunk Review

- The Gunk reviewed by Tom Marks on PC, also available on Xbox.
As the first 3D game from Image & Form Games (best known for games like SteamWorld Dig or SteamWorld Quest series), The Gunk is a simple little platforming adventure full of malicious messes that are plenty of fun to clean up.
#IGN #Gaming - Ігри
This should be commended for being a finished video game with a beginning, middle and end. It’s not full of bugs, it works how it’s supposed to and it won’t try and sell you something to fix a problem it created itself every five minutes…short and sweet, well executed entertaining goodness 🥰
Just like how the vast majority of games were pre PS4 and Xbox One era. Anyone with sense misses those times
It's a 4hr game
It would be pretty pathetic if a development team couldn't make a 4hr game with no bugs or glitches.
The Elden Ring beta had more content than this and it was flawless.
@@gamefrk11523 …it doesn’t matter how long it is - no one finishes a book and proudly proclaims it had 500 pages or whatever 😂 it’s about the quality of the experience while it lasts…and yes, Elden Ring looks like it’s going to be an excellent game, but that’s not our yet whereas this is.
@@gamefrk11523 Elden Ring was made by a massive team. Image and Form are an indie studio.
It’s pretty sad that mainstream gaming makes that commendable when it should be standard.
Installed with the game with low expectations. Finished the game in one sitting because it was so entertaining. I'm here just to read what other people think of the game.
It's a 4 hour campaign
@@ztaylor82 it's a FANTASTIC 4-hour campaign. Not every game has to be some monolithic 50+ hour slog. A lot of people don't have time for that, and even if you do it's nice to play through a whole game in a short amount of time and get the complete experience.
@@me77111 wise words
Same
@@ztaylor82 a lot of my favorite games are pretty short, that just gives it replay value for me.
Amazing game, please give it a chance.
Completed games on launch without bugs are rare now days.
Completed games at launch are rare no games bugless. A game not blusecreening which almost all games do now is very impressive though
Agreed people feel entitled… even tho on Xbox it’s free with game pass
@@newbreedzorro204 which is why it's even more impressive alot are unfinished at release on there
@@newbreedzorro204 people feel enitiled to what?
Boring game..
This game has a lot of potential for more complex, longer sequel. The core of the game is fantastic. Intuitive controls, beautiful art style, and interesting landscapes. Just wish it wasn't so simplified.
There's nothing wrong with a fun simple game every now and then.
@@dbzking02 you are correct, but in this case you are not, the gunk could have been a better mechanic, it's not a currency it's not a material, it's just there in hopes you like the satisfaction of cleaning. the talent system was kinda meh, the puzzles weren't horrible, not even hard in any measure. it was just kinda mediocre.
@@dbzking02 That's too true. I've learned that lesson many times while trying to play more complex games, getting bored, and finding joy in breeziness.
Perfect kind of game to grab from gamepass, hope more people get to play it.
Not appealing game
Yeah gamepass shovel wear
@@bazel_007_ it’s not free you bot
@@Tinbeef22 no kizzy
@@REXae86 shut up
Who else thought the score was 3 at first
You must have scrolled through the preview screens lol
Cute game, nice game to play when the squad isn't online yet
Underrated comment 👏
Downloaded this from game pass yesterday, can agree on the comment
@@sniffroid-9204 ya been playing it myself occasionally
Just finished the story.
Great game
how many hours did it take?
@@Andi91 In the review he said 4 hours
How u finished it so fast when it just released?
@@Andi91 it took me 6 hours
Its ok not a great game to the two main characters come off whiny little bitchs
The body of the review sounded like an 8 or 9 game, so the score at the end surprised me.
IGN only gives 7
People seem to forget that scope is a thing. If a game is simple and doesn’t have much to make it stand out it’s not gonna be a 9 or 10 even if it doesn’t have any major issues.
The HALO Infinite campaign review sounded like a 7/ 10 and they gave it a 9/10... IGN's review narrative rarely match their end score.
Beautiful game that didn’t glitch and try to sell me anything.
This is a great game, it offers a solid game with beautiful graphics and a simple gameplay with a duration ideal for a saturday evening, it's not a hard game at all which makes it ideal for kids. it also gives a simple exploration experience which is somewhat optional. This isnt a combat driven game, so don't expect major fights or action, and it has maybe 2-3 instances of tension, but the rest is a really chill experience.
It's not GOTY, but a lovable game to spend an evening
Is like Luigi's Mansion series (vacuum some ghosts).
Looks fun.
You already know the score.
Must be a 7
7 💀
@@swayamkrishnan8273 so 7 is bad to you? 🤦
Lets see - its not from an advertising partner, so 9 or 10 is not possible, so its going to be a 7, because nobody gets the sack for mediocre scoring....

Played the game for hours yesterday, love it so far
It’s Luigi’s Mansion but in an alien world
Came for this comment...
.... didn't get disappointed
This is a nice addition to strand-type games
well done, hahha
This was one of the most beautiful games I've played, it was so satisfying grabbing the gunk and the music, and eased my anxiety
🥰
This game reminds of Mario Sunshine and that’s why I’m in love with it!
Sprint doesn't work for me. Is it supposed to be unlocked later in the game ?
Yeah it’s an upgrade you can buy at the work bench pretty early on actually. Just keep getting materials
Tried the game out with the game pass. There was something about the art cover that attracted me to try it it out.
Played it all the way to the end. Would love to see a sequel honestly.
Is there any challenge to this thing?
Finished the game today. It was really cool and chill. Takes about 4-5 hours to complete.
Loved Steamworld, this looks fun as well. Glad it's on gamepass
Do they take place in the same universe?
Oh there it is people yellow meta score suddenly it’s “fun”
This game looks so interesting and reminds me of early PS1 games.
Man just got a Series X for a few weeks and honestly havent touched my Launch PS5 ever since, so many games in GamePass!
So you got a new system for a few weeks, and discovered a bunch of games you haven't been able to experience, leaving the old system less played? 🤔 WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT. 😂
Please stop with the overdramatics, and roundabout promotional push. GP is a great service, but it's ok to praise it without mentioning PS, or how you 'defected' in the console war.
@@kthebarbarian8223 bitter Sony fan 😂
@@fightnight14 lmfaoo dudes definitely upset ☠
@@kthebarbarian8223 kiddo grow up
@@kthebarbarian8223 Dude literally has a PS5 and a Series X. he's already stepped out the console war you fool...
Very solid level design, basic but it flows really well. A nice little experience with beautiful visual design
where do you get it ? tried steam epic window store and nothing
It’s on gamepass
Is this the voice actor for Micky mouse in kingdom hearts 3?
8 seems more accurate if you ask me. Great game overall.
There is no such thing as an "accurate" rating for artistic creations which are heavily based on preferences, it's just an arbitrary number.
was a Certified 'h00d' classic
this looks beautiful. Cant wait to see a steamworld game from them in 3d
As game pass is like Netflix now what’s wrong with a 4 hours blast too many games to get on as there is so many this works for me
I'm sick of every game being pumped full of filler content to keep me there for 50 hours. Give me a 5-10 hour game where every minute is great.
This lays the foundations for a potentially fantastic series.
0:35 Me having just gone over the whole Inscription ARG: “hnnnggg”
completed it today, was surprisingly fun
It's like someone played Luigi's Mansion and was really upset when they realized they couldn't vacuum all the dust
Yall ever play Blinx? Same style, different genre. :) Loved that game!
This game reminds me a bit of ReCore. Small Dev, Short Game, it's simple. People listing it as some sort of AAA game to compete with exclusives to Sony and Nintendo's offerings need to chill out.
It is a bit but it doesn't have all the fluff that game has.
"It has some fairly poignant messages about the state of our own planet as well."
Edgy stuff. Going out on a limb there.
Go to Brazil and take a look around. Gunk and plastics everywhere. Not far off.

So is he essentially saying that the gunk is deblob 1 and 2?
It’s Luigi’s Mansion but with more goo. :D
Looks beautiful.
But is boring
Interesting platformer given its Ghostbusters/Luigi's Mansion vibes the only negative being its low resolution textures despite it not being an ancient game but the gameplay is simple fun. Kena Bridge of Spirits is superior in comparison.
Wait this is just open world Luigis mansion
It’s not bad but they could have made this into an amazing game by adding mechanics other then vacuuming gunk
"start small, grow tall"
Loved it on my Xbox series s !
Homeless
Can’t wait to download it.
Ha... Dissapointed yet?
Far from it , it’s fun for what it is. As you can see from my Channel a play a lot of games.
Gunk sounds like a knack material
Knack is much much better.
@@deyh5664 😁
The day IGN changes their scoring metric from 10 out of 10 to 5 will be the day the 7 score stops popping up. But then 3 might just their next favorite number so meh
A 3/5 is still better than 7/10.
@@atlien1988 youre right
This 11gb game would be so great on Switch!
Halfway through and it’s a lot of fun!
The game is so fun!
So, this is Super Mario Sunshine in space?
Reminds me of Mario sunshine
Image & Form Games just keeps delivering yet again.
Can’t wait
Mario Sunshine Splatoon Sci Fi edition
If splatoon worked backwards....
The Gunk is Covid. I'm doing my damndest to eradicate the gunk while my own immune system stuggles to recover. I'm playing on my phone using Game Pass.
Cool story bro
Score is 7.
why does the landscape remind me of Kena?
It seems inspired in part by Blinx Time Sweeper
So this got the same score as BF 2042?
This game is better than battlefield and cod
@@mo2175 Hahaha what?
Well Battlefield 2042 is $70, is just now starting to work a month later, and is barebones so seems fair to me. If this game was longer and a little more challenging it probably would have scored better than Battlefield.
@@13Gangland I’m not joking, this game is better than any soulless cod and battlefield
@@samclark3370 Then, get on the real game with real people, talking about challenging, yet probably one of those campers that stay on one place the whole time.
Luigi’s Mansion in Space!
amazing game. story is short but the concept is great.
This game looks so fun!
The texture quality is kinda bad. Looks like a mobile game.
Would of made a perfect Christmas AA release for families. Multi format and physical. Could of seen this being quite successful with proper marketing and it's eco message
"Would of/could of" are not a thing, it's would have--->would've.
"It's" always means "it is" (or it has), the possessive is "its".
American education at its finest. Even the most basic stuff is too hard.
@@DakkonBL 🙂😅 I'm not American. Oh dear. Did the genius just assume and not think. Why so upset with what was a nice comment on UA-cam. See if you can work this one out 🔔🔚
@@DakkonBLKys
嗯，我有一個簡單的問題：為什麽主角必須是一個捲髮黑人女性，還得矮？
Excellent game!
A game about cleaning? Count me in!!!
Super Mario sunshine + Kirby + bionic commando reboot = this
So, a better physics No Place Like Home?
Is this just "Control" DLC?
Why no Steam release?
Were is a Review of prey for the gods?
4 hrs. Jeez thought it would be a bit longer.
luigi's mansion 4 looks great
Honestly couldn't finish this video bc of this dude's voice. Wth IGN who are you hiring
This is game is ok! a sequel would be welcome.
Wow. Xbox is bringing it. 👏👏👏
I’d give it a 8/10
4 hours???
Yeah you can definitely do it in 4 hours idk where this clown got six from
7?! NO WAY!
Got tired of tired cleaning gunk at every possible place.. lack of map was big issue. 6/10 overall
I'll download this tonight
Finished miles Morales in 5 hours but pony's didn't complain about the short story...... This is on Xbox and is 4 hours yet they say it's too short 😂
nice try, Miles took totally over 7-8 hours to finish only the main story and if you play casually, it could take over 10 hours to finish the main campaign. If you want 100%, it could took around 17-20 hours depends on your playstyle 🙄
@@PonTran194 it didn't take me that long......🤷 It was a really short game. Got through the story pretty quickly
Nice try though
But now bots can’t say that Sony has “One & Done” games when XBOX now has them😂😂😂😂
@@Omegaslashbuster1 We have one and done and multiplayers. Yall just have one and dones. 😂👌
@@dtf.editzz this is literally a one and done game review you are on lmao 🤣.
Looks like a perfect game for my 7-years old daughter! Great!
Probably too hard for a 7 year old. At times at least.
Sounds like the game is a 6 that he wanted to be nice too
Firing it up via game pass as we speak, excited to sink my teeth into it.
Wait... 4HRS????
Tom Marks is the GOAT.
Love image and form also!
Chill game loved it
Did they just insinuate Mario’s puzzles are complex? Lol
Lmao
No, that the platforming is
Nope they didnt
Sounds like Kena
Luigis mansion but in reverse.
They Gave It 7 Out Of 10 😀
Roughly 4 hour campaign..........nope
Didn't actually explain why this is a 7
🧐🧐🧐🧐
only know about this coz of gamepass lmao
IGN nowadays be like
Indie games - 7/10
Ubisoft games- 8/10
Triple A console exclusives - 9/10
Popular controversial games- give a score that will not annoy the fanbase
