"Glover is a nice and fun platform video game. With this re-release, veteran players will be able to relive the games they played years ago, and new generations or players who overlooked it will be able to discover it."

"Even in its remastered form, Glover is really frustrating to play, and not an enjoyable experience at all. With the amount of games out there and the limited amount of time most of us have, you would be better off …"

"Glover is a very unique experience: it&s;s a really brilliant platforming idea, which resulted in a game that, while not a masterpiece, is super fun and different from anything else the genre has to offer. But unfortunately the remastering work …"

"Tired of Super Mario 64, Banjo &a; Kazooie and Donkey Kong 64? Try Glover, a different game about collecting items and mainly about passing levels and advancing through different scenarios to save the kingdom. If one word could sum up …"

"Glover is still a cute little game that really brings back that vintage N64 Platformer vibe with vibrancy and charming music and, at times, really showcases some clever level design and puzzle elements. But it has technical issues and a …"

"Glover was an ambitious and unique concept back in 1998. Ultimately, it&s;s where the game should remain. It is a shame - with improved controls and tweaks to the design, it could have shown the concept in its best possible …"

"While there’s no question that this Mario 64 contemporary had a unique play style, there’s a reason the series didn’t continue"

"Glover is a beloved title of an excellent era of 3D platformer games, so it’s really disappointing the developers did not adapt the game to be playable to modern standards. The game didn’t need a rebuild, but it clearly didn’t …"

"Glover offers the nostalgia of the classic late ‘90s era but also presents the challenges of 3D platformers that may prove difficult for many players to handle. If you enjoy a challenge, then Glover may be the game for you."
