Navigate the corporate landscape, dodging distractions and potential hazards in this challenging workplace.
The Company Man is, at its core, a classic side-scrolling platformer. Players traverse levels from left to right, utilizing platforming skills and combat to overcome obstacles. The Company Man distinguishes itself through its satirical humor and distinctive level design.
Players assume the role of a disgruntled office worker seeking to ascend the corporate ladder, a premise executed with considerable comedic flair. The control scheme is intuitive and readily accessible. While the initial stages offer a gentle learning curve, the difficulty ramps up progressively. The gameplay experience is generally fast-paced and engaging, complemented by a stylish and humorous visual presentation. One notable drawback arises during boss encounters, where the absence of a visible health-bar obscures the player’s progress and can lead to frustrating trial-and-error gameplay.
The Company Man performs admirably on the Nintendo Switch in both docked and handheld configurations. Load times are notably swift, ensuring minimal interruption to gameplay.
In conclusion, The Company Man offers a worthwhile experience and is recommended for fans of the genre. Its engaging gameplay, fast-paced action, and unique premise set it apart. The accessible price point further enhances its appeal.
