Let's start with positives. The game's art style is really fantastic, to say the least. A nice, 'chunky' visual aesthetic. The open-ended approach to puzzle platforming is refreshing, and very well thought-out. Honestly, taken from a step back, the game is refreshing to play, and I wish there was more creativity like Giga Wrecker's in modern gaming mechanics. To quickly summarize what the game lacks.. It feels very …

This game needs a reset button in the menu with how prone to softlocks it is. Impossible to progress my file because I pushed an enemy slightly to the right and now he's blocking the reset thing, he can't move and I can't hurt him or damage boost through him. It's like the tenth room in the game. Actually unplayable. The whole game is resetting and resetting, hoping the physics works properly and doesn't softlock …

Giga Wrecker is a game I bought after someone mentioned that it was made by Game Freak. I didn't even look at the gameplay as I wanted to be surprised and I definitely was not expecting one of the best puzzle platformers i've played in some time. The main gimmick to this game is finding debris and combining it into a large ball of debris that you carry around. You can use this to extend your attack range, make …

I play a lot of 2D platformers, and this is one of the best I've played in recent years. It leans heavily on the standard Metroidvania framework, but the puzzles and abilities you acquire really make it feel like something fresh and unique. The art is great, the boss fights are satisfyingly difficult until you figure out their patterns, and the puzzles are often difficult enough to make you feel accomplished when …

You may not want to buy this game on steam! Why? This game is absolutely awesome? Because there is a newer Version of it: "Giga Wrecker Alt.", which is CONSOLE EXCLUSIVE and will NEVER COME TO PC. That version can be found on various consoles (like the Switch), so if you like the extra content (more rooms, more lore and an alternative ending), go buy it there! Aside from that, as mentioned before, the game is …

Players who liked GIGA WRECKER talk about unique and creative puzzle mechanics with debris manipulation; those who didn't talk about physics engine can cause softlocks and unpredictable collisions. Which matters more to you?
Critics, per Wikipedia
Giga Wrecker received mixed reviews according to review aggregator Metacritic. Kyle LeClair of Hardcore Gaming gave the PC version a positive review, praising the environments, puzzles, combat, and bosses; less positively, LeClair found the English translation awkward, though he still found the plot interesting. For the 2019 release, Nintendo Life considered the combat "forgettable" and criticized the retro-anime style as uninspired, but liked the game otherwise, especially the addition of the hint robot for the game's more obtuse puzzles. Laura Francis of Eurogamer praised the core gameplay conceit, that of smashing up things to make giant debris balls which smash even larger things, as an…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I wish I had read the reviews...The 'action' tag is heavily misleading, this is a physics-based puzzle platformer through and through and very little else. When your gameplay is based on physics they are the one thing you need to nail and nail them they did not. The so-so localisation and story does not help either. No support for 16:10 screens or borderless windowed mode. If the black bars weren't bugged it wouldn't have been an issue but they are. Had to use the "borderless gaming" app to fix…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I actually hadn't realized until last week that Beast of Reincarnation is less than a month away. There's a new Gamefreak game that's not Pokemon and isn't Tembo the Badass Elephant or Giga Wrecker. That's scary.
neutral · AI labelView post →Go buy Giga Wrecker Alt instead, the publisher said that they won't update this with the updated features that is in Alt.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Jesus. Christ. Almighty. Was this game made by one or two people at GameFreak? Cause the budget seems to be atrociously low. To the point of having a non-symmetrical character sprite being simply mirrored when you turn left and right.... When the character's everything, but symmetrical: her right arm is human, her left arm is robotic. Or the other way around if you just turn. I swear you can't make this sh*t up. Ok, but nitpicking aside: 1. This game has awful graphics - art is good, but the…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A very neat approach to a Puzzle/Platformer made by Game Freak. The game runs flawlessly, I haven't run into any sort of lag, nor has my game crashed once. A lot of people note that, the flaw Giga Wrecker runs into, has something to do with the physics engine being wonky and collision detection often not doing its part. I have barely come across any of this. Only 1 or 2 times have I fallen through something (lose debris), me being at fault for trying to jump on something on a very weird…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Giga Wrecker is a 2D action puzzle platformer. You play as a young girl called Reika, who has been transformed into a cyborg and now battles the robots that have successfully defeated mankind. The puzzles consist of box physics, lasers and the ususal spikes and pits. You can destroy or cut parts of the level to solve the puzzles. The action comes from the robots that you encounter in the levels and the bosses you must defeat. Bosses each have their own pattern and stages and take a few tries to…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →GIGA WRECKER Gameplay: GIGA WRECKER is a 2D action adventure from Gamefreak who made the Pokemon games which puts you in the shoes of Reika, a girl who is held prisoner in a world that was suddenly overtook by robots in a similar fashion like a zombie outbreak. The story is told through static cutscenes with dialogues and is very clichéd. Right from the nature of a post apocalyptic world to the way the story progresses slowly, it is a typical anime styled story which might be enjoyed by the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Some unusual game from Game Freak and not Pokemon this time. Bash through huge rocks like it's nothing with your powerful nano arm. Enemies are about to die here so don't worry. Controls are ok, game can be played with a controller. Soundtrack is good. Overall decent 2D action platformer.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →started off pretty cool but got annoying and tedious way too fast but what actually got me was the first boss battle how in the world should one even think of trying to "parry" the first boss attacks? yeah, you are given a very in your face hint once you die a few times, absolutely clueless about what to do, but that's an awful solution and such a disgusting crutch for the bad boss design
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It tries to combine action, puzzle and metroidvania games, but kinda fails at all of them. The fights against enemies are very limited as you either kill an enemy in one hit or don't do any damage at all. You just have to attack enemies in order and that's it. A lot of the controls feel a bit clunky as well. You can't make small jumps only high and a bit higher ones (almost not noticeable). The character movement has no momentum, you either stand or run. No slow walking. Jump controls feel…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game... The core mechanics make it seem like it has so much potential, but for a puzzle game where the physics are the most important mechanic... the physics are really wonky... You could do something practically the same way 3 times and get 3 different results... That just isn't ok.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game Freak made a game that wasn't pokemon and its good, it felt like a combination of maga man and metroid and the puzzles were all very clever. Pick up this game its worth it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Ugh, This game looked so fun. And when it got a good sale, I was pretty excited to get it. But my excitement deflated pretty quickly. The core idea here is interesting, but it's not handled well. Very simple puzzles are ruined by the chaos of the physics engine. I had to do puzzles several times, in the tutorial section no less, because objects didn't fall right. I loathe to think of how frustrating the future puzzles would be. It's surprising how much the characters talk, and yet how…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Beast of Reincarnation is such a beautiful game. Game Freak side projects don’t always hit (Drill Dozer yay, Giga Wrecker no) but this one is like a classic Capcom action game with a Mononoke/Fumito Ueda aesthetic. @area35.bsky.social and sister company SAFEHOUSE contributed to the game big time.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →GIGA WRECKER, by the Pokemon Developer Gamefreak, is sadly not all that fun. The artstyle is interesting, but it falls a bit flat after only a short time, no pun intended. The physics-based debris gameplay could be cool, but the puzzles rely on those physics way too much, and while you can reset them easily, it isn't fun to do the same thing for twenty minutes until the physics agree with what you are trying to do. Most of the game consists of these puzzles, with slight metroidvania aspects,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is absolute trash. The art looks like the designers did not care about polishing the esthetics, the gameplay is repetitive. The hit box is of enemies and the environment uou have to interact with is so random. I think I wasted the dollar and a half that I spent on this game. Please, avoid at all cost, don't waste your money and time. Just because it was made by the same people who did pokemon, doesn't mean it is a good game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →CRIMINALLY underrated game. I get that it's more of an experimental game that ventures into some very new territory when it comes to 2D physics, but man, there is so much good about this game and I have no clue why no one knows about it. Like, seriously? If you go to any image board there is next to ZERO fanart for this game. I haven't heard of anyone talk about this game whatsoever. The OST has sub-10K views on YouTube. There are literally 2 people who speedrun this game. It's made by GAME…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game definetly deserves more love from the community. Giga Wrecker is a PC exclusive indie game from GameFreak (you know, the dudes that Nintendo enslaved 20 years ago to do Pokèmon) and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ is it good. It's basically a metroid-vania 2D platformer except it's not retro style and has very curious mechanics. To me, it feels like playing a sidescrolling version of Portal since you have to solve puzzles with abilities and such. The plot is very interesting, sometimes weird and makes you…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good Idea, bad realisation This is a puzzle platformer based on certain physical model. But the main problem is - physics is really bad here. And you will feel really annoyed and frustrated by many results of objects manipulation. This is a game where I would put neutral review. It's like 3+++/5. Good: Art Ideas. The mobs that can be hurt only with certain amount of debris. Physics based puzzls. Bad: Physics works really bad here. The objects always speed…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I didn't like it, some times you phase through objects when they are diagonally placed/moving. The combat is uninteresting, played 2 areas and they had the same or very similar tune repeating all the time. I don't know, it just didn't hook me, might come back to it later but left a bad first impression.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I liked this game, though it's certainly not without its flaws. The concept sounded cool, and the game definitely has a cool visual style, particularly the CG story illustrations and the boss designs -- a bit reminiscent of huke's work on Black Rock Shooter. There's also a great ambient-electronic soundtrack. The meat of the game though is the puzzles, and for the most part the game plays pretty well. The puzzles have a good amount of variation, including a few particularly good ones near the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →For a physics-based puzzle platformer the physics is really wonky. I don't really recommend this game except if you are a tryhard or a masochist. I do think some level aren't playtested thoroughly since most of my solutions felt like i'm brute forcing my way to complete it. Where if i do it "normally" the physics engine will do something funky and throw the debris all over the screen. 4/10 would not recommend except if you really are a masochist. (I'm looking for fun in games. Ridiculously…

When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I must make this clear now as it needs stating directly; if you want the game in it's MOST COMPLETE form, DO NOT BUY ON STEAM. The developer has made clear statements that it WILL NOT ADD CONSOLE CONTENT to this version of the game. Hopefully in the future they will change this decision, but as of this writing, it remains true. I might recommend this as a later purchase as it has a different ending and some changed plot, but not at full price. That said, this is a really good game, with some…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game is an abandonware on PC and it was state officially that PC version WILL NOT receive a console exclusive ALT. version content. Basically, scumbag devs used us, PC gamers, as guinea pigs for their experimental game and after it became a success - jumped in bed with consoles with their ♥♥♥♥♥♥ exclusivity. ========== Recommend but with heavy caveats. First things first - it's a physics based puzzle platformer, not an action game. Don't be fooled by the action-esque aesthetics. Gameplay is…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You literally can't play any part of the first fifteen minutes of this game for more than 90 seconds in a row before it will interrupt you with another tedious, boring conversation between forgettable characters mumbling expository dialog. If the gameplay was fun I'd tough it out, but it's not. It's just kinda...there. Don't waste your time.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really wanted to like this game, but due to some flaws I can't really reccomend it, especially at full price. First off, this game is much more of a puzzle game than a platformer, at least the portions I was able to get through. So if you are expecting a platformer with puzzle elements (e.g. Trine) you will be dissapointed. Pros: Good graphics Creative Design Cons: Disjointed - The different sections of the game don't really mesh well. This is particularly evident in the boss fights, when…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I can't put into words how much I love this game. It looks amazing, the puzzles and boss fights are challenging enough to give you a feeling of fufillment when triumphed, dialogue (while a bit off in some places, but not too bad) is pretty great, the enemy designs are just plain rad (especially Astra Sarama), and that's just scratching the surface. I would gladly play through this game over and over again. I'm just a sucker for good boss fights and puzzles and this game does way more than…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I cannot recommend this game. The hit detection is far from polished, and a lot of damage i took felt cheap. I would jump over an enemy clearly above his character model, and i would proceed to hit an invisible hit box taking damage which lead to a frustrating demise. The puzzles were simple in principle yet executing them is another matter entirely. all too often i found that the physics objects i needed to remain individual components would form together into one collective mass causing…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Cool ideas, but clunky execution. Forget the poor translation and jumbled environments. It commits a cardinal sin for puzzles. You can have the right solution, but the game can fail to execute it in a way that makes you question yourself due to the physics. And when you encounter one of the puzzles that does that, it becomes very easy to drop the game with nothing else to hook you.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've recommended this game, but I want to stress that if you're probably going to want to get Giga Wrecker Alt. on consoles instead of this version. While it's a graphical downgrade playing on a console, the port appears to be a superior product overall. Better translation, a second playable character, an additional ending just make Alt. a better choice. If you don't mind some engrish, or you care about the graphics, then this version is fine, but maybe wait until it's on sale. Otherwise, the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I didn't enjoy my time with it, I get lost easily in the map, the graphics are a little small and the physics engine seemed a little wonky. Didn't really understood how the skill tree is supposed to work.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →6/10 grab it on deep sale the puzzles are more about getting lucky well trying to toss a box or ball that often flys in random directions or distance + puzzles - story - combat - price played for an hour and a half, unlocked a tons of things, never saw or hit a save point, lost power to my pc. annnnd back to almost start of the game....F i dont want to do all that again... no reason for this game not to have auto save every room

What I dislike: Sometimes the game will ghost your debris into the center of terrain blocks, making your precious debris inaccessible, especially if throwing javelins into walls at close range.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →good game! very pretty, very fun. Puzzles were challenging but not frustrating because of confusion, but because you have to make the physics work for you sometimes. It can take some throwing things at the wall until something sticks. But the combat and boss battles were awesome as hell, and the music and story were also pretty rad. 8/10! Don't pass this up if it's on sale!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →<1 Hour Later> - The localization is painful, the words can read but it takes some used to - Some of the hitboxes/colliders don't react predictably, sometimes registering a "hit" with the player for no apparent reason and others missing it entirely - The soundtrack is really mellow, which if the combat element didn't feature so prominently would be much more fitting - The physics component is well done for the most part, although I've already experienced issues where the direction I'm facing…

Its not the greatest game ever made and i noticed some issues playing on steam deck where the game would lag for a split second, sometimes dropping an input or braking some of my character's physics interaction.

It's wild nonsense through and through, a physics-based puzzle platformer and an action platformer that are somehow mixed together just jankily enough that it both works and doesn't in just the right ways. I don't mean this as a big sh*tpost, this game unironically brings me joy. You do need a bit of patience to play it, but for the exact reason I laugh every time I do.

The characters movements feel stiff and sometimes you can slide through dynamic objects if they are at an angle when you stand on them, but not necessarily all the time.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →From inconsistent physics to touchy controls, I can only recommend that GameFreak stick to Pokemon games. While the concept is good and the art direction is unique, the mechanics of the game suffer from the above mentioned problems. Puzzles appear to be simple in nature but the unpolished controls and RNG physics make things an unwelcomed challenge. Many puzzles that let you access multiple doors or buttons should have check points built in so if you die to one of the many spike pits, you do…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Generally fun game, if a bit on the simple end of things for a puzzle platformer, even with a physics puzzle bent. The vast majority of the game is straightforward enough in regards to figuring out the solutions, and there was only ever one time I became stuck. While there's nothing overly complex about this game, it plays well, the platforming is quite solid (although perhaps a bit too reliant on the instant death spikes towards the end) and the bosses while were fun and distinct. The story…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An oddly enticing puzzle game, it has very good game feel and suprisingly unique puzzles. The only downside is that you can screw yourself out of puzzles, which is why there's a rewind mechanic. And even that's a streach since by designing them were they can have fail states gives it the ability to have unique puzzles and combat senarios. Plus it has a level editor so you can have infinite levels to pick from .
