What players say

Players describe Bob Was Hungry as Super Meat Boy in 3D with simple controls and a cute, colorful look, but they also say its difficulty is merciless. The game forces a full restart on any death, which many find frustrating, though co-op and competitive play with friends are highlights. Opinions split between those who love the challenge and those who just find it rage-inducing.
