WayTooManyGames
By Oliver ShelldingI never quite got over busting myself down to the very easy difficulty, though it actually made the game both fun and attainable while still being shockingly hard. BZZZT takes no prisoners and you shouldn’t expect mercy if you plan to spend any time with this game whatsoever. If you like to bleed, strap in. If you don’t, you might want to find another robot with whom to party.
Video Chums
By A.J. MaciejewskiThe amount of love and care that went into developing BZZZT really shows thanks to its awesome world and fine-tuned stage designs.
God is a Geek
By Lyle PendleBZZZT might not be a game that breaks the platforming mould, but it's a hell of a good time with tight controls and varied stages.
PPE.pl
By Krzysztof GrabarczykBZZT exudes a retro-style setting. It focuses on continuous training. Levels at first are a form of warm-up to eventually test your skills and patience. You won't break your fingers, you won't tear your hair out of your head, but it will be fun. And after all, that's what it's all about, right?
Gaming Age
By Matthew PolleselEverything about Bzzzt makes it stand out from the crowd. It’s a very fun old-school platformer that manages to stand out even in a very crowded genre, and it’s definitely worth picking up.
