Critic Reviews
Pure Nintendo
By Dawson HeltonWhile Flinthook was a swashbuckling good time, the poor level design and odd level system keep this title from being great. Despite the problems, this is a tight platformer with a lot of personality and fun mechanics.
Eurogamer
By Christian DonlanBreathless action combines with perfect pixel art in a game of real character and delight.
Miketendo64
By Miketendo64Visually and in audio design, Flinthook is a joy to behold and melds exceptionally well with the gameplay.
Buttons and Mash
By Josh AFlinthook is a fantastic action platformer with a brilliant grappling mechanic, charming aesthetic, easy to pick up gameplay and one of the most polished roguelites to date.
Cubed3
By Albert LichiCaptain Flinthook is a fun character to play as and the way the procedural levels are generated, they just do not do him justice.
