VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Jamestown+ seems like the start of an improv sketch. "Name a genre, a place, and a historical figure." How about shoot 'em up, Mars, and Sir Walter Raleigh? That's the game in a nutshell: a vertically-scrolling shooter set on the red planet in the 17th century. An expanded version of 2011's Jamestown: Legend of the Lost Colony, it's a handsome, versatile, and replayable shooter that regrettably locks some content behind higher difficulty settings."
The Switch can always use more quality Shmups. Jamestown + is a great addition to the family. It has the craftsmanship of a classic shmup but with a steampunk twist. Join The Gamers Lounge as check out Jamestown+ and try to figure out why its so addicting.
WTMG's Leo Faria: "If you don’t mind its grindy nature and botched progression system, then I can totally recommend Jamestown+ for its unique setting and production values. It’s not as fast-paced as other shooters, but it knows how to please you by making every single blast you shoot feel powerful and destructive. It also has some great boss battles and a surprisingly decent story, something you don’t see in most bullet-hell shooters out there. Heck, you’re lucky if they even add a plot to begin with…"
Set sail for 17th-century British Colonial Mars in Jamestown+: a cooperative shoot-em-up for 1-4 brave souls, designed to be exciting for players of all skill levels.
