### 4/5 — Better than neon chrome

*2021-08-01*

I have to say that I’m liking this a lot more than previous effort Neon Chrome. Quite fun

### 5/5 — Best top down shooter

*2018-04-27, version 1.0.0*

Best shooter hands down. It’s sooooo good. Please release a sequel

### 5/5 — Jydge

*2018-02-14, version 1.0.0*

Hi guys I’m Tom this game is totally sweet I’ve been playing this game a lot since I bought game At the App Store i’m very impressed with the game This game is a masterpiece Great job guys.

### 5/5 — Really Fun

*2018-02-05, version 1.0.0*

Really fun game and honest. You just bye once and you have a game you can complete and replay without having to pay for scamming in app purchases.

### 5/5 — Jydge, Jury, and Executioner

*2018-02-03*

Jydge is a tight, mechanics driven sandbox blaster that throws you in to the role of a mechanical justice dispenser. The challenge is found in configuring your equipment to tackle each objective.

### 5/5 — So fun

*2018-02-01, version 1.0.0*

I love this game- love that you have to exhaust each level- just haven’t figured out collectibles yet. Gotta start paying better attention

### 5/5 — One of the Best!!!

*2018-01-30, version 1.0.0*

I just wanna say I’ve look for a good game one the App Store and didn’t have the best luck until I ran into this one, at first I thought it’d just be another let down but it turn out to be my favorite game on IOS, just the little Easter eggs you find on here (my favorite is the Rick and Morty Easter egg which made the app ten time better for me when I found it. 😊) to the slow incline to an unstoppable god in the game. Looking forward to further productions of this company.

### 5/5 — Buy it.

*2018-01-28, version 1.0.0*

This game is very freaking good. Absolutely worth the price and zero buyer’s remorse.

### 5/5 — Amazing Game

*2018-01-28, version 1.0.0*

I got quickly addicted to this game! I pre-ordered it expecting an alright game that I would only play when I was bored. Now, I’m realizing that I’m playing this game even when I have plenty to do. It’s great and if you love action games, this is definitely one for you. 

P.S. 
I do hope that more types of JYDGEs are added or even a way to customize their looks. Plus, more great content is added on to the game.

### 5/5 — This game rules

*2018-01-28, version 1.0.0*

I likes being able to upgrade my jydge it is really fun

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2018-01-26, version 1.0.0*

The game keeps you going somehow. I was very skeptical about it when i first bought it because it $5 but the game turned to be a lot of fun.

### 4/5 — JYDGE

*2018-01-25, version 1.0.0*

The game is awesome however when I come the last mission 
It’s on grim difficulty to kill one of the thugs I led him outside and my movement button freezes I naturally die  and have to 
Star all over  I’m playing on a iPad

### 5/5 — Fun, dynamic, polished

*2018-01-25, version 1.0.0*

Great top-down 3D shooter. Customizable load outs, fun missions, and multiple objectives. Set in a crime-filled dystopian future, Jydge is a pared down Judge Dredd, a justice dispensing judge, jury, and executioner. Heavily influenced by games like Syndicate, and those that came after it, Jydge is a terrific iOS title that is well worth the money.

### 4/5 — FANTASTIC game

*2018-01-25, version 1.0.0*

Each level is like a puzzle in itself. I like the design and graphics. Wish I could get some type of multiplayer function, though.

### 5/5 — If you liked Neon Chrome...

*2018-01-24, version 1.0.0*

This is basically more Neon Chrome with an actual storyline this time. Pretty fun.

### 5/5 — HELP ME!!!

*2018-01-24, version 1.0.0*

This game looks great and i pre-ordered it a while ago but it wont let me download it! Im not sure why i cant but when i want to “download” it the bar says “pre-ordered” i dont know what to do. Do i need to go to something on the store to redeem it or something? PLEASE HELP ME!

### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2018-01-24*

Do you gonna add more mission (like survival mode) that will be cool but this is a really good game guys good job🙂

### 1/5 — Skill-wall

*2020-10-02, version 1.2.1*

Can’t progress due to stupid block system. I just want to play the stages... let me play whatever stage I want. I’d like to earn the blocks later on, not be forced to play the early stages over and over in a forever grind that’s not satisfying.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work for iPhone X

*2018-02-14, version 1.0.0*

Really sad I can’t get the controls to work properly for my iPhone X. Was super excited from all the reviews and this is the first game I have ever purchased...really upset I can’t even play it! Hopefully this will be resolved soon and I can change my rating. Until then, it’s just a waste of money and space...

### 1/5 — Ugh.

*2018-02-05*

But I hope that you will update it tho 16 levels for 7$? That’s just under 50 cents per level.
And there is a free game called Global outbreak which is the same gameplay but with better controls and more meat on its bones.
I feel like this game is 7$ well wasted.

### 1/5 — Waste of $5?

*2018-01-20, version 1.0.0*

I pre-ordered this game about 7 days ago and when i got the notification saying “The game you pre-ordered is now available” i checked the app store only to find that i could only view it. When I tapped to view the app, it said that it was pre-ordered. I’ve been checking daily to see if it’d been fixed and I checked today, but it still hasn’t been fixed. I’ll write a better review when I can actually play the game.

### 2/5 — Pretty boring

*2018-01-23, version 1.0.0*

Game is OK, but gets boring really fast. After the 2nd Act you must push yourself to complete yet another map or running an old one on hardcore difficulty, with stronger but still dumb enemies. Progress in opening upgrade slots is linear, gameplay repetitive and tiny maps are boring. Doesn’t come even close to Space Marshalls 1/2 which I really hoped for when preordered this. Final nail in the coffin - ‘Y’- based grammar - lYser, jYdge, shotgYn gets irrYtatYng  rYlly fYst. I saYd Yt.

### 2/5 — Flaws bog down a potentially great game

*2018-01-22, version 1.0.0*

The good: It’s got a lot of potential to be fun.

The bad: The aiming is terrible for running and gunning, this is advertised as a roguelike when it isn’t, the lighting is FAR too dim, the view makes determining which walls are destructible a trial and error exercise, and levels are locked until you get ALL of the medals for an area.

It’s a good idea, poorly executed. Save your money until the bugs are worked out.

### 2/5 — Jydgemental?

*2018-01-19, version 1.0.0*

I have not played Jydge on PC, so I can’t comment on the quality of the port. However, for a $5 title (potentially 10 since I bought on the launch sale), I’m disappointed. I’m playing on an IPhone X, and even on that, it feels sluggish. Control and responsiveness are so important for this kinda game...I’d wait and see if patches improve things, because the atmosphere, music and customization look pretty good.

### 2/5 — Eh

*2018-01-18, version 1.0.0*

Look, JYDGE is like neon chrome without the roguelike... that’s a beefy plus for me. That being said, I cannot support a game without cloud saves. If I can’t pick my game up from iPad or iPhone, and just keep going, it’s a waste of money. There are a lot of wastes on the AppStore, for now, JYDGE fits that category. Disappointed that I pre ordered.

### 3/5 — The game requires a map.

*2018-01-20, version 1.0.0*

Great game but it requires a small map in the corner showing where you are and where the enemies are.

### 3/5 — Something really bugs me

*2018-01-20*

Great game, but it’s really annoying that you couldn’t really kill none of citizens, I keep deleting save and retry the whole campaign because of that. Could you please just remove the stats about how many citizens you saved or killed? Also, I keep crushing on the mission ‘thinning the horde’, guess because spawn too many enemies on this map, please fix that

### 5/5 — Brilliant !

*2024-02-16*

Love this game. The levels are great. Just the right level of difficulty Would love a sequel. Please !

### 5/5 — Surprisingly … a very good game.

*2022-06-08, version 1.2.2*

Didn’t expect much, but was pleasantly surprised.

### 5/5 — Best top down shooter I have played

*2022-02-13*

This game is amazing. Combat is fast and furious. Things explode walls can break. Glass can shatter. All the perks are different which adds a layer of depth to the game. A lot of different enemies to kill. The makes to go back and replay the levels again but with different goals. Can get slightly repetitive.
A hundred percent recommend.

### 5/5 — Waaaay better than neon chrome

*2021-05-07, version 1.2.1*

Why did they stop adding content and upgrades and enemies and challenges?! This game is perfect

### 5/5 — Pretty Good with MFi support

*2019-03-16, version 1.2.1*

If you like Neon Chrome, this game is worth a look.
Slightly different approach, more control over upgrades, requires more "thinking" to succeed.
Excellent external joystick controller support (Nimbus)!

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2019-02-26*

Took a chance on this game as it’s not my usual sort. Love it. Quite challenging but really great to play. High quality.

### 5/5 — Fantastic Action!

*2018-11-18, version 1.2.1*

One of the best games I’ve played on mobile. This was exactly what I was looking for in a paid game. Polished, pretty & fun.

There is a wide range of customization for fighting styles. The incline in difficulty is perfect to keep you engaged & hungry for more. 

Very glad I found this little treasure.

### 5/5 — Amazing.

*2018-09-24*

Absolutely loved this game. Totally addictive. Best top down shooter I’ve found. Hope there’s a JYDGE 2 coming soon!

### 5/5 — Needs more levels

*2018-07-13*

It needs more levels

### 5/5 — Criminally Good

*2018-06-07*

Control systems are the lifeblood of twin stick shooters. Regardless of the Robocop/Judge Dredd cyberpunk aesthetics and the obvious homage to Hotline Miami, without this instant feedback of hair-trigger perfection JYDGE would fail. Thankfully, this is one of the best realisations of this style of shoot-em-up on mobile.

Level design is compact, but offers a wide spread of solutions to each of your mission objectives. Not only that, but each dovetails perfectly into the chosen loadout for your mechanised patrolman. Go for a sneaking/system hacking selection of equipment, and you can complete each level with minimal enemy engagement. Go loud and proud, sinking cash into offence and endurance and every level turns into a gore-soaked arena. There's even a range of drones and henchmen that you can take into a level with you, leaving them to do your dirty work while you dive in and out of cover.

With four difficulty levels to each mission, you’ll find yourself switching between the three saved loadouts to eek out another completed objective. Doing so acts as the in-game currency that then unlocks the next level in the campaign. What this ultimately means is that you have to perfect each approach and learn how to play the 18 missions in multiple ways pushing replayability to its maximum potential.

Jydge may feel like a short session game, and the snacky, ‘finished in under a minute’ time trials definitely underline this. That said, if you burrow into the detail, try and locate all the hidden levels, secret collectibles and even unlock the mystery match three game, it’ll be a long stretch before you put this down.
