![]() ![]() Even exploring the world is enjoyable, as it's chock full of toys, vehicles, and machines that can be used for work or play. ![]() Whether or not you progress the deliveries as you are supposed to, there is a lot of fun to be had here. A bit like Go Vacation it's the sort of game kids love because adults don't get it. If kids enjoy Roblox games, and aren't worried about the odd glitch or janky controls will enjoy this. It's like Octodad in that some will find it just too hard to play, while others (particularly the young) will love messing around the world and pranking other players. You will spend a lot of time falling over, dropping things, crashing and generally getting flung around the place. The game is intentionally difficult, whacky and complex to control. Because you can grip onto anything in the world, even other players, the game often becomes a cascade of hilarious and unintended consequences. The characters and game world simulates (and exaggerates) real physics, that you have to work with to get around, pick up things and use the variety of vehicles on offer. TinyBuild GAMES provided us with a Totally Reliable Delivery Service PS4 code for review purposes.Totally Reliable Delivery Service is a package delivery game, where you use different means to get parcels to their rightful owners within the time limit. You?ll experience pretty much everything it has to offer in the first few minutes of playing it, and it?s the sort of game best experienced as part of a YouTube compilation, rather than something you need to play on your own. In other words, Totally Reliable Delivery Service is the definition of a one-note joke that wears out its welcome pretty quickly. After all, there are only so many times you can flop around helplessly before it stops being funny. I?ll admit that I only played the game solo, so it?s quite possible things are improved by the presence of other people, but even still, I can?t see how that would make it substantially better. Delivery attempted, that's a Totally Reliable Delivery Service guarantee Local and Online Multiplayer Go it alone to ensure the safety of your deliveries, or join your friends and put your teamwork to the test. Sure, the packages change, but it?s still all Point A to Point B while fighting with lousy physics. Which is the other big flaw with Totally Reliable Delivery Service: it gets really repetitive really fast. While it may be fun once or twice, when it happens over and over again, the humour evaporates pretty quickly. Huge New Island, 15 New Deliveries, Brand New Vehicles, Floating Island. One time, trying to get into a plane, I ended up rolling around beneath the wing, unable to do anything else. Sometimes I?d make it in, but just as frequently I?d phase through the vehicle entirely. Similarly, any time I tried getting into a vehicle - which is a must in this game, seeing as you have an open world full of deliveries to make - it was a hit-or-miss proposition. Like, one time I dropped a package off in the designated area, and my character ended up getting stuck as well. Unfortunately, there are plenty of times where the flailing and the falling feel more like a design flaw than something intended to make the game more enjoyable. On top of that, some of the packages are explosive, which means the game makes good use of its ragdoll physics. Much like Human Fall Flat or QWOP, you have far more control over your driver?s limbs than you would in most other games, and the resulting flailing is good for a laugh or two. You (and friends, if you want) control - in the loosest sense of the term - a klutzy delivery driver, and you have to try and deliver all kinds of packages from Point A to Point B. It?s not that the basic idea isn?t fun - it is. Where a game like Goat Simulator occasionally reached some surprisingly impressive highs if you stuck with it long enough, with Totally Reliable Delivery Service, you?ll find that the whole thing has diminishing returns pretty quickly. That said, I think Totally Reliable Delivery Service comes a lot closer to that line than Goat Simulator ever did. Like Goat Simulator years ago, it?s broken in a lot of ways…but it?s intentionally broken, which makes it difficult to tell where the line is between bad on purpose and just plain bad. It?s hard to review a game like Totally Reliable Delivery Service. ![]()
