Jan. 2025

Overall, Hot Lava is a fun parkour/action game with a lot of potential. Once they fix things like the control design, it’ll become a solid game on Apple Arcade. Until then, Hot Lava remains as a great game for the people with the correct equipment, i.e. a Bluetooth controller. The environment and unique universe will keep you entertained from beginning to end, and thanks to the different starts and collectibles there are, you have a lot of reasons to keep playing this game

This game is very fun and makes you addicted fast! The urge to become the best and getting your best time even shorter. It is so simple but still so great. Everything is easy to understan. Mechanics, superpowers and what you have to do. The most difficult levels are the ones with catching your sister, at least it was for me. Also you can enjoy playing this game with your friends! All in all I really love playing this game! 10/10 You need to buy this game for sure! Get Goo Goo Alu!

Hot Lava - This game brings back the joy of childhood imagination while adding an exciting twist to platforming. The concept of navigating through a world where the floor is literally lava is both fun and creatively designed. The graphics are vibrant and colorful, perfectly capturing the playful atmosphere. Each level is cleverly crafted, with a mix of challenges that keep you on your toes. The fluid movement mechanics feel fantastic, making it satisfying to leap, climb, and swing through the environment. I especially love the multiplayer mode! Racing against friends adds a competitive edge that makes the experience even more enjoyable. It's hilarious to see everyone trying to avoid the "lava" while attempting to outpace each other. The sound design and music also contribute to the overall fun vibe, enhancing the experience as you explore different worlds. Overall, Hot Lava is a fantastic game for anyone who enjoys platforming and nostalgia. It's a unique blend of creativity and challenge that offers endless fun, whether you're playing solo or with friends. Highly recommend giving it a try!

Wow, is this game a breath of fresh air! Every single moment from the intro scene to the moment I stopped playing just now (bedtime), an hour later, was a delight. I won't spoil anything by going into detail here. Let's just say that in an era where games tend to take themselves too seriously without really being original or fun, this game is the opposite. It is like a love letter to childhood, to fun, and to games in general. it's been decades since I played a game as fun as this. I would highly recommend it.
