Gameplay


Gameplay consists of players writing their own lines of dialogue or riffs (jokes) for movie clips from the RiffTrax library; players can also choose from a selection of riffs written and voiced by the Rifftrax team. After the riff is played back (with players' original riffs rendered using text-to-speech), players then choose which riff is the best. Between two to six players can play in a game, each randomly represented by a silhouette of an infamous character from the Rifftrax library such as Torgo, Mr. B Natural, The Guy from Harlem or Ice Cream Bunny, and up to twelve audience members can watch and vote on the riffs per game.[2]


Release


RiffTrax: The Game was released on May 5, 2022, for macOS, Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.[3]


Reception


RiffTrax: The Game received "mixed or average" reviews for Microsoft Windows and Xbox One and "generally favorable" reviews for PlayStation 4, according to review aggregator Metacritic.[4][5][6]

The Verge and VentureBeat praised the game,[10] the latter stating that they found it addictive.[11] GameSpot and Ars Technica were more neutral. GameSpot noted that it was not as fun to play alone while Ars Technica wrote that it was "As fun and competent as a $10 party game needs to be. If you like MST3K or Rifftrax, then buy."[12][13]
