Beyond a unique, charming art-style, Gunman Clive offers a serviceable albeit remarkably shallow experience: the stages remain of consistently average quality for most of the extremely short campaign with only a few, extremely dull bosses. It offers a nice diversity of enemies, mechanics and platforming twists to keep the gameplay flow decently entertaining, but everything is too streamlined, simplistic and ultimately mediocre to be interesting or exciting in any meaningful way, aggravated by a forgettable soundtrack.
