Only Way is Down offers an intriguing concept where you play as a cat who must navigate a dangerous construction site to reach the ground safely. The game's world is visually appealing, with vibrant cityscapes and a variety of customisation options for the cat. However, the experience is marred by its extreme difficulty, as one small mistake often leads to instant death. The cat's movements are stiff, and there's no recovery from falls, making the game feel punishing rather than rewarding.
While the game targets fans of rage platformers, its high difficulty, poor controls, and frustrating camera angles make it unsuitable for most players. The unresponsive controls and frequent camera issues only add to the frustration, making the game feel more like an exercise in trial and error than an enjoyable challenge. Although Only Way is Down has potential, its lack of forgiveness and overly hard nature will likely leave casual players frustrated.
