"This is a fairly unique game that&s;s pretty impressive in some ways, given its indie nature, but the controls and signposting simply aren&s;t good enough. With some tweaks to the platforming, wall running, and wall chainsawing, this would be a …"

"MOTORSLICE seems like a brave and novel step forward for the people who made it. While it may not be perfect, it is striking, which is often enough to make an independent film worth seeing."
Read original review"In 2026, Motorslice underwhelms, but for a game designed for the early aughts, it has a lot I could have enjoyed 15 years ago."

"Motorslice can be a frustrating game with a weird tone, some bad writing, and almost malicious design at times. However, getting through those rough spots feels trivial compared to how good the game feels at its best."

"In an era where so many games seem terrified of simplicity, Motorslice feels confident enough to strip everything back to movement, atmosphere, and momentum, and it is all the better for it. In short, chainsaw go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr."

"MOTORSLICE succeeds in its main promise. The game delivers fun parkour, good boss battles that truly evoke a sense of grandeur from these machines, and well-designed environments capable of conveying the feeling of strangeness and loneliness characteristic of liminal settings."

"Motorslice has some cool moments, but they’re largely lost in stale and dated gameplay and weirdly sexualized beats."
