Overview

Slow Down, Bull is an action collecting game. Steer Esteban, a stressed-out overachieving bull, to collect as many crafty pieces as you can, but be careful! Every time you steer him, he gets a little more stressed out, and you DON'T want to stress him out!

Reception

In the end, Slow Down, Bull is a game that has been created for a very worthy cause, though it's difficult to recommend it outside of the charitable donation that will come with purchasing it.

By making Slow Down, Bull so needlessly challenging and frustrating, Insomniac Games has diluted its purpose and made something that instead of helping relieve stress, only serves as yet another source of it.

If the exploit I found hadn't been so game breaking, I'd have rated Slow Down, Bull higher. It's a very decent game for the price, and I'm happy to see more titles like this coming from well-known studios.

Some gamers may be put off by the game's visuals or basic concept, but those that give it a chance will find an enjoyable game. It has a nice sense of challenge as you need to figure out the best way to collect the art supplies within the time-limit, while keeping Esteban from becoming Jake LaMotta (a raging bull, if you don't get the reference).

A cute and colorful game that oozes with a childlike charm. While it won't be winning any awards, it is well designed and an enjoyable game to play for some stress relief
