What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Nearly four years ago before I began writing reviews, I played A Virus Named T.O.M., and shortly after a hiatus I came back to air my grievances in what I thought was a comprehensive review.
Whether you're teaming up with friends to tackle co-op challenges or facing off against them in a frantic battle for supremacy, the multiplayer modes offer endless hours of fun and replayability.
But "A Virus Named TOM" isn't just about puzzles; it also features a charming art style and quirky sense of humor that adds to the overall charm of the game.
In addition to its engaging single-player campaign, "A Virus Named TOM" also features a variety of multiplayer modes that add an extra layer of excitement and competition to the experience.
That's too bad, because the character design and the sound design were well done, giving Tom a fun personality.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. 2 more themes were each raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and are not shown.
