Chaz of Twinfinite writes "Every so often, I come across a game that takes an extremely old formula and format, and somehow makes it into something new and interesting. With Potatoman Seeks the Troof, PixelJam creates an insane, fast-paced experience that combines the speed and pressure of modern games with the unforgiving difficulty and look of games from eras long gone. The distinctly-dated graphical style and sometimes-jarring chiptune soundtrack, the game certainly succeeds at the 'retro' angle. But with so much focus on recreating this bygone age, does it hold up to modern gamers' standards?"
TouchArcade: "Well, that was something that happened." That was my reaction after completing Potatoman Seeks the Troof [$1.99], an oddball little platformer from Pixeljam Games that's certainly an experience. It's a brief platformer, with five different levels, which don't take too long to beat, necessarily, but it's as much about the odd story running through it. You control the eponymous Potatoman, seeking the "troof" – about existence, life, who knows? It's a game that you probably shouldn't play for pure platforming challenge, but because it's an odd experience.
TTP:" Last month we have reported that the platform game developed by PixelJam Potatoman Seeks The Troof was going to be released soon on the App Store. Today, we finally know when this “soon” is."
GameCrate: "Potatoman doles out a bite-sized run-and-jump adventure that’s best suited for people looking exactly for that."
troof is how ghetto blacks say "truth", fact.
