Pepsiman is an auto-running action game that was released exclusively in Japan.
+ Includes some fun diversions that see you riding a skateboard, or wearing a trashcan that reverses your controls!
+ Using the dash mechanic is exhilarating and it's hugely rewarding when you shave seconds off your best time.
+ Frame-rate is rock-solid and the action is entertaining once you learn the stage layouts and manage to collect all the cans.
- Only contains a measly four stages (with three acts each), so before you know it you'll be seeing the credits roll.
- Music is irritatingly repetitive, and the sweeping camera angles often makes it hard to accurately judge spatial distance.
- Bizarre cut-scenes featuring a stereotypical, overweight gamer seem ill-advised for a supposedly delectable drink.
