After giving up on the mobile versions of vector, I just got the PC version. I enjoyed Vector a ton as a kid, so many hours dumped onto that iPad. So, I wanted to get a taste of the sweet sweet nostalgia. The original version of Vector on mobile doesn't work anymore, and instead of fixing that version to work on modern mobile OS's, the developer just made two new distinct versions of it. One being "Vector Classic", a paid version of the game that I assume is just the original release but updated to function. I played the other version which was free because I am a cheap bastard and felt betrayed that the money I spent on the original just went down the drain. Needless to say, the free version sucked, it has all the trappings of modern day free-to-play mobile games. So I gave up. However, I'm weak and my nostalgia still hungered, so I got it on PC.

I enjoyed my time with it, just as I remembered it being. I was kind of hoping that I would've enjoyed it as much as I did as a kid, but that's just a futile thought. That isn't to say that Vector is a bad game, it's simple good fun. A 2D auto-runner can only go so far in wowing someone. I honestly don't have much to say which is shame since I wrote more in my rant than the actual review. Vector just does everything it sets out to do, nothing more, nothing less.
