DeVuego

Oh My Godheads is a 1-4 player, fast paced brawler based around massive heads of mythological deities which are out to get you. While it’s a lot of fun with friends, a lack of depth and poor AI mean it’s not so much fun without any.

The story, however, compelled me enough to overlook those problems and storm on through. Maybe I’m just a sucker for pseudo-history, but I enjoyed my time with Yesterday Origin and would really like an opportunity to delve into that world again.

Even the fights against the big golems, which are built as grand boss battles, don’t satisfy. The golems move with the vigour of a man being dragged around the underwear section in Marks and Spencer’s, and you merely have to roll away before they smash their fists down, then punch wherever the purple thing is sticking out. Although it’s commendable that Yanim have fixed the frame-rate issues with a patch, the game sadly remains an uninspiring one, that’s hard to recommend.
