What players say

Players call Robot Exploration Squad a competent but unexceptional metroidvania that takes 3 to 5 hours to beat. The art is widely considered ugly or basic, and several reviewers note stiff controls and a lack of control remapping, though enemy variety and level design earn some praise.
