The Maw (XBLA)

Video Game Generation
13 February 2009
  • Summary: The phrase “Good, but not great” pretty accurately sums up The Maw . The puzzles are nothing new or exciting, but the varied creatures and the powers they bestow do add...
  • Pros: Great visual style, Excellent music, Decent length for 800 points
  • Cons: Serious control issues, Movement speed is PAINFULLY slow, level structure that equates to a series of ‘key puzzles’.
