Tower of Babel is different and original. It was created for people who want to make the most out of the time they spend together. The main rule of the game: just build a tower! You are not cooperating with the other players but you are competing against one another.

TheBigBoisBrace yourself for an addictively chaotic climb through relentless foes and epic loot. Skill-based combat and endless surprises await at every level. Tower of Babel: Survivors of Chaos is a legitimate standout in the bullet heaven genre — not for reinventing it, but for executing the Vampire Survivors-meets-Diablo formula with genuine depth, beautiful hand-drawn art, and a loot system that sustains endgame engagement well beyond what the price tag suggests. Its recent Mixed reviews reflect real friction points around run length and build balance rather than fundamental design problems, and for the right player — someone who enjoys long optimisation-focused sessions and wants a genre entry with actual build complexity — it’s an easy recommendation.
Nindie SpotlightNindie SpotlightSep 20176.5/10In the end Tower of Babel isn’t that bad of a game for the price of entry. If you enjoy the endless runner style the game does do a fair job of iterating on the same overall formula with a variety of traps and looks to keep it fresh. With a patch hopefully the issue with the limited nature of the leaderboards could be addressed and people could feel a bit more compelled to compete on them with their friends and others, understanding where they currently rank and how much harder they’ll need to try to climb higher in the ranks would really help sell the replay angle a game like this needs. As implemented it is just hard to recommend for more than fans of the genre though.

PS3Blog.netNov 201750/100I can't recommend Tower of Babel on Nintendo Switch. There are far better games on the console from indie teams that you should definitely check out. The gameplay isn't bad and works, but the overall experience is not a good one. So unless you really need an endless runner on Switch, you should probably skip this one.

Nintendo LifeRyan CraddockOct 20174/10At its best, Tower of Babel has some great auto-running action that will have you flying around the screen at breakneck pace, firing yourself to the top of the speed-running leaderboards. Unfortunately, though, the whole thing is let down by some game-breaking issues and a rather lacklustre aesthetic that maybe answers the question of why there has been so little mention of the game prior to release. A frustrating case of a game that could have been excellent but shoots itself in the foot with its many problems, Tower of Babel is best left for another day.
