Fall Guys<\/strong>\u00a0<\/em>has been the surprise hit\u00a0this\u00a0year, a game that rose to prominence so quickly that\u00a0its\u00a0Mediatonic’s servers couldn’t keep up with the demand<\/a>. Now, the game’s first expansion is right around the corner, and fans are already getting excited for the host of new mini-games that are promised to come in Season 2.<\/p>\n

Despite all of its success,\u00a0Fall Guys<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>is not without its flaws, as there are a number of mini games that are simply not as fun as the other games in\u00a0Fall Guys. <\/em>For\u00a0Fall Guys<\/em>\u00a0Season 2 to be as popular as Season 1, it should avoid returning to a certain\u00a0type of game mode.<\/p>\n

In order to understand why some Fall Guys\u00a0<\/em>game modes don’t work, it’s important to first understand what makes the game so fun in the first place. In a vacuum,\u00a0Fall Guys<\/em>\u00a0is a relatively easy game. There are only two buttons, jump and dive, and none of the\u00a0mini-games\u00a0are particularly challenging on their own. Outside of making a game-losing mistake<\/a>, most players should be able to handle anything that\u00a0Fall Guys<\/em>\u00a0throws at them.<\/p>\n

The challenge, of course, comes from all of the other players. Solving a jumping puzzle is simple enough alone, but when there are 60 other players trying to\u00a0work their way though\u00a0the puzzle at the exact same time, it suddenly becomes far trickier. No matter how optimized a Slime-Climb run is,<\/a>\u00a0there’s no accounting for other players getting in the way.<\/p>\n

Fall Guys<\/em> is at it’s best when it leans into this chaos. Trying to navigate a series of seesaws while sixty other players are constantly throwing off their balance, is both tricky\u00a0and rewarding. The best\u00a0Fall Guys<\/em>\u00a0game modes have players moving at a breakneck speed while making tough decisions on the fly,\u00a0like is it better to work with other players or try to\u00a0hinder their progress<\/a>?<\/p>\n

And best of all, there’s a deep cathartic fun in watching the\u00a0strange, possibly horrifying,\u00a0jelly bean guys<\/a> getting tossed around the map. Watching a crowd of\u00a0guys\u00a0get thrown by a spinning windmill or smashed by a hammer is just\u00a0plain fun.\u00a0Even when loosing, it’s hard to not laugh at the pure absurdity of the game.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

So if Fall Guys<\/em> is at its best\u00a0when it is\u00a0fast-paced and chaotic,\u00a0then it stands to reason that the slower, more straight-forward game modes are the weaker points of the game. There isn’t a catch all term for these game modes, but they can be broadly defined as “waiting then falling” games. This category includes\u00a0games like\u00a0Perfect Match<\/a>, Jump Club, and Roll Out.<\/p>\n

Perfect Match best captures the waiting than falling type of game mode. It’s a memory game,\u00a0in which players are\u00a0standing a platforms with pictures of fruit on them. The players are then are shown a fruit on a large screen, and players have to move to the correct fruit platform\u00a0or else they fall off the stage.<\/p>\n

Many players consider Perfect Match to be one of the worst game modes in Fall Guys<\/em><\/a>, and with good reason. As mentioned earlier, Fall Guys<\/em> is most fun when it’s fast paced and chaotic, and Perfect Match is the exact\u00a0opposite of that. There’s very little interaction between the players, as they are not trying to push past each other to a finish line or steal a tail from each other. Instead they just sit there, waiting for the fruit to appear. The game takes a long time, and most of that time is spent standing still.<\/p>\n

Speaking of games that take too long, Roll Out is a game mode that lasts\u00a0far too long after it has stopped being fun. In it, players have to\u00a0balance\u00a0on a set of connected spinning rings, while avoiding pits and obstacles. The game mode only ends when enough players have fallen off, and given how easy the game mode is, this often takes a very long time. This is especially true if players just\u00a0camp on the far two rings, which move very slowly. Players can be stuck for minutes on this game, just waiting for another player to mess up, which is good for\u00a0an interview\u00a0on a Fall Guys<\/em> talk show<\/a>, but bad for players who are trying to have fun.<\/p>\n

Encountering a waiting\u00a0then falling game completely takes the wind out of any Fall Guys<\/em> run.\u00a0Gone is the fast paced chaos of the previous rounds, replaced with a\u00a0the slow, arduous task of completing a round of Jump Club. These game modes are not fun, and and they kill the pacing of Fall Guys<\/em>. Hopefully, Mediatonic moves away from these types of games in Fall Guys<\/em> Season 2<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It is a very fun game, and Fall Guys<\/em> has the huge user numbers<\/a> to prove it. The combination of\u00a0 a party game with a battle royale style elimination has clearly\u00a0resonated with a lot of players. For\u00a0Fall Guys <\/em>Season\u00a02 to be successful, it should lean into the games’ strengths and\u00a0create more games that\u00a0play to\u00a0the chaotic nature of the game.<\/p>\n

And the good news is that Season 2 is shaping up to be really interesting. While there isn’t a lot of information about the season yet,\u00a0Mediatonic\u00a0recently announced that it will be adding a Big Yeetus to\u00a0the game<\/a>,\u00a0a spinning hammer that can randomly spawn on any stage and will either launch players forward to victory or send them tumbling off the stage. Insane, chaotic, and fun ideas like this one are what made players fall in love with\u00a0Fall Guys <\/em>in the first place, and Big Yeetus’ inclusion in the upcoming season is reason enough to believe that Season 2 will only improve on Season 1.<\/p>\n

Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>is out now for PC and PS4.<\/p>\n
