Do you remember Super Hexagon? This truly impossible game has been referred to countless times on Edamame Reviews as our benchmark for “Impossibleness.” Today we’ve got another game from the polygon family that is actually playable… This is our review of Octagon.
Octagon is… well… actually a fun and enjoyable endless runner style game that most players should find rather cool. It isn’t impossible, and though relatively fast paced, as long as you stay focused most players should have enough warning to stay alive for at least 50 to 60 seconds of gaming before it becomes too hard.
