12 Positive User Reviews for Sisyphos
Frustrating.
This game is so infuriating as a person with a short attention span, which makes it perfect.
Just what I was looking for.
This game isn’t hard or easy, it’s just extremely infuriating
Peak gaming.
It’s like getting over it, but worse, I love it, peak gaming. Remember me when this is fruit ninja level of popular.
One must imagine Sisyphus happy
This game is awful.
Existentialism: the mobile game
Brilliant. Ponder the meaningless of life while messing around on your phone. This is not really a game you’ll play for long but it’s a creative idea cleverly executed
Awesome
Reminds me of valorant ranked :)
I feel just like Sisyphus
It’s awesome, don’t get me wrong it’s awful but you get what you’re signing up for.
Not Sisyphus enough
There are peaks. Sisyphus pushed the rock without peak. I like this game but I would like it more if there was an unending hill with slowly increasing difficulty. Maybe ways to customize the cosmetics would be good as well.
Meditative. Like Daddy Long Legs, but somber
I don’t find this game frustrating. It’s in the same category as Daddy Long Legs, Verticow, Drop Not, Skyward, etc. The point is to get further each time. There are only a handful of achievements, and no cute, silly collectables most games in this category accrue.
The biggest difference is that the pace of Sisyphos is more meditative. I can narrow my focus down to the placement of his feet, little changes in the path beneath him, and the pace of my breath.
Is this therefore not fun fun? I supp
The secret to winning
For anyone that want to know how to win, don’t let the rock hit your face. It gets harder the further up the mountain you get but once you realize what causes you to lose then you also realize what you must do to win. It is endlessly so technically you can’t win but you can at least reach the top. I’m interested to see what high score people will get now knowing this.
Fun to a point
Counter to a lot of reviews, I found this game fun initially. The fun game from having a goal. First, learn the rhythm. Then crest the mountain. Then make it back. Then build a streak. However at that point you basically have no reason to continue. Sure you could build your multiplier to infinity and top the leaderboards, but I’ve found that I’ve no desire to return to this game that I consider good. Maybe that’s the point and that’s fine. My gamer brain just craves more goals to climb towards.
Sisyphus
The story of this game is amazing and reminds of the futility of trying to escape death. If you know the story you will enjoy this game
