Editors' Notes

Thumper: Pocket Edition is utterly mesmerizing. It's a brutal test of reaction time and an awe-inspiring dive into kaleidoscopic dreamscapes. Or, perhaps more accurately, into nightmares. The music and sound effects swell and pound with ominous tension, making this blistering sprint through light and writhing shapes feel like a vital struggle for survival. Music games rarely squeeze your emotions in such a menacing grip.

Buttons too small

When changing lanes I always miss the buttons. I get that its designed like that to make it you can see more of the screen, but a simple solution could be that you can move and resize the change lane buttons. Otherwise, the game is fantastic.

This Version Is Hard to Recommend

I love thumper, on any other console except this one. It’s a fantastic rhythm game that feels incredibly satisfying, intense and can fit both casual and perfectionist players.

But on here, mastering it is basically down to luck, the optimisation is very poorly done, there are random lag spikes and any notification will drop you down to 5 fps and immediately ruin your run.

Often I found myself failing runs because of input lag as well.

If you want to play thumper, play it on a console or a PC, this mobile version does it a great injustice to what is a fantastic game. Play this version if you’re fine with getting a B or a C on every run, play any other version if you want to master playing thumper.

I’d give it 5 stars on any other console, but here, it feels so sluggish and frustrating because of hardware limitations, thus a 2.5 or 3 would be an appropriate score in my opinion.

Developer Response ,

Checkout update 1.15. It adds support for Xbox One, DualShock 4, and MFi game controllers (requires iOS 13 or later). Playing with a controller might feel better for you.
