Multiwinia review at Gamespot gets a 7.5

Though I do find it funny that they list in the bad section "Weak story missions" even though they write in the review "The story actually isn't that important though" and they acknowledge that as the name suggest its a multiplayer game.

"While the AI isn't bad, the single-player mode's story is disappointing, and if you have an Internet connection or LAN, there's little reason to carry on playing alone."

Are they complaining about the maps' descriptions/flavour-text?

Is it just me, or did they treat Single Player as if it was Campaign Mode?

Seriously, the review starts getting silly everytime they mention Single Player.

Also, they called the Sepulveda statue "the maoi of Easter Island" *shakes head*

I hate to think what they said about TF2's dev commentary mode. It's not like it's rare for singleplayer mode to be multiplayer with bots.

Found a few more reviews:

Game Vortex - 91%
I am still just completely sucked into this game. I have been playing it straight for 12 days.
..I was completely and literally blown away by the depth of the game.


Big Download - no score
Multiwinia is a great, low-cost, game for people who want fast gameplay that's easy to pick up and learn.

Gamers Daily News - 7/10 (may change?)
Overall the gameplay experience was a good one and even though there are some balancing issues it was enjoyable.
