GameSpot: "Retrovirus is a nod to the classic Descent series that makes battling virtual viruses a mostly pleasant pursuit."
Hardcore Gamer: The Indie Royale bundle has returned with an offering of five games for a bit under $5. That gets you Retrovirus, Signal Ops, Zack Zero, Vox, and Sol Survivor. A bonus game will be unlocked at some point in the future, and if you spend $8, you get the Lost Floppies Vol. 2 album.
Nicholas Bale writes "Sometimes when it comes to ferreting out a computer virus, you've got to get down into the nitty gritty and just fire your way through the computer, blowing up infection wherever it grows. Well, at least this is what Retrovirus teaches. And I've got to say, it looks much more effective (and fun) than running the latest anti-virus software on the market and watching files scroll by."
"“Why don’t they make games like Descent anymore” is the perpetual whinge of a small but vocal community of gamers who are immune to motion sickness. Well, those gamers are in for a treat, because Retrovirus by Cadenza Interactive is here, and it offers fully 360 degrees of control in a 3D, floating sick-bucket of brilliance. If you’ve got the stomach for this kind of title (which our original reviewer didn’t), it might be exactly the type of game you’ve been waiting for.", says CalmDownTom
