In theory, the relative accessibility available in this game should make it a good choice for those looking for DS-based multiplayer experiences. But instead of standing out, Cosmo Fighters blends in, becoming something that's oh so easily forgotten. The system feels very clunky, if only because of the slow nature of the gameplay. Even with the option of Download Play, it's hard to say if the average gamer will see this as worthwhile. Honestly, there are far better multiplayer experiences to be had on DSiWare for the same price. Cosmo Fighters had potential, but unfortunately, gameplay and presentation design choices have ultimately limited how enjoyable this game can be.

Overall, EnjoyUp Games did a great job with this WiiWare release. Beyond the nice visuals and sound, Chronos Twins DX is a challenging game that will definitely bode well with fans of traditional platformers, and perhaps even fans of games like Gunstar Heroes. The high level of difficulty may alienate some players but to be honest, it's a refreshing change in a generation of games that, at times, have been tailored too much to the casual audience. With a $10 price tag (in North America), Chronos Twins DX does not disappoint, providing a thoroughly challenging gameplay experience for platformer enthusiasts.
