boomtown Iain Lowson at Boomtown describes Mushroom Men as:

“…a quirky, well-executed platformer that doesn’t overstay its welcome.”

n-europe Mark Lee at N-Europe has some very nice things to say about Mushroom Men.

“Every scene is a treat to explore, with surprises literally around every corner looking like something from Tim Burton’s nightmares!”

Mike Mason at Cubed 3 appreciates the passion and effort put forth in our freshman offering of Mushroom Men: The Spore Wars.

“For a first effort on Wii, Red Fly Studio have put forward a great little title.”

Seth Bland at Darkzero enjoyed Mushroom Men so much that his only major complaint was that there wasn’t enough of it.

“Mushroom Men leaves you wanting more, which is both its biggest triumph and its only failure.”

Liam Pritchard at Acegamez enjoyed Mushroom Men.

…the smart level design and attention to detail leaves Mushroom Men as one of the better looking third party releases yet seen on the Wii.

Scott Munro at the Daily Record speaks highly of Mushroom Men.

Mushroom Men is a success… It offers players an interesting experience, which fans of the genre will definitely enjoy.

Daily Joypad’s summary says it all:

“Simply put, this is certainly one of the best third-party produced games out there for the Wii. In all honesty, I would of passed this game up had it not been for the review copy. I don’t want you guys to make the same mistake, this is well worth purchasing, in fact if you own a Wii then I would insist that you do!”

Tom East at the UK Nintendo Official Magazine has glowing words to say about Mushroom Men!

“There’s not mushroom for improvement here”

Now that the Mushroom Men have spread their spores world-wide, we’re getting a whole new batch of reviews in. Some, like Mike “Two Tone” McConnell’s write-up for Digital Entertainment News and Darren Calvert’s review at NintendoLife, offer some praise. But even the most dour reviews (I’m looking at you Nick Adams of TVG) aren’t as generous, but they tend to be just as thorough in their analysis of the title and cannot avoid pointing out the many shining points of the game and its stunning landscapes and outstanding audioscape. den
