    UPDATED AND RATING CHANGED DUE TO NEW ISSUES POPPING UP. PLEASE SEE BELOW. The plot is as simple as a 3D Mario game: Rocko's girfirend has been captured by orcs. You're Rocko. Go get her! At first, I wasn't going to recommend the game, but as I continued playing, I realized I had been judging it on what it appeared to be, as opposed to what it actually is. There's a lot more here than meets the eye. The Good: - Resolution goes up to 1920x1080x32 and it looks terrific! Vibrant colors, and…

    I mean for a 2003 game this game is pretty dang good. You have to mess with the settings during start up but once you figure it out its really not bad.

    I loved the game when I was a child. But this version is terribly castrated. I don't know if an american version (here in Europe the game was called Grouch) was always like this but in "my" version there was plenty of blood and gore and it was a big part of game's charm. No gore here and that's disappointing. I have also a very annoying glitch when particles are supposed to be animated but they are "stuck" on the first frame of animation... so I'm running through the levels full of "frozen"…

    There are some things that only videogames can do. For me, Rocko's Quest was emblematic of all of them. Where most games do their best to be something else – to tell a story like a novel, to impress with cinematic techniques like a film – Rocko's Quest is pure game, a complete and darkly fascinating vision that makes no concessions to the modern conception of how games should be. it was an exploration of how games could be; how bleak, how twisted, how focused and – most famously – how…

    someone has beautifully crafted a world that I would much rather live in than my current one, for the past three days I have not consumed any food or water, I have not slept either. This game is so immursive i feel like I am Rocko. My old life is meaningless, all that matters is Rocko... 10/10

    i opened my eyes to find myself in a white void, it seemed to infinitely expand in every direction, about ten feet away from me was a lone desktop computer, it wasnt connected to anything but it managed to work. the desktop was covered in nine hundred and ninety nine copies of rockos quest, i began to play... bacon cheese eggs dormant rage

    I tried it with different settings and all and at the end it worked. I mean there where flashing graphic bugs around and it's unplayable, but maybe that's a feature. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=276047918

    It was fun and all but unfortunately the game crashes when Rocko approaches the final boss, it would be nice to have that fixed.

    an excellent way to check if you are still alive or trapped in a nightmare world, is to see if you have rocko's quest in your steam library. nightmares ward off rocko's quest

    The release is too broken to justify a recommendation. I needed to use dgvoodoo2 and the framerate fix from PCGamingWiki, and there's still plenty of crashes - sometimes upon game overs, sometimes random). The one at the final boss fight hurt the most.

    Overly simplistic. Instant death environmental puzzles. Swing and run combat. Not worth your time.

    Not for me, game is too old with graphical glitches, and no sound volume slider, but I would have finished it anyway. But even with invulnerability and infinite lives, I found the constant insta-deaths anywhere tiring. Also if you quit the game or if it quits on you, and you didn't get to the end of a level for saving, you lose all your checkpoints' progress. If you are ready to quit it forever like me, at least give it a try with Cheat Engine. Who knows, maybe you'll like it that way, I…

    Game looks very ugly and wasn't pretty even back in the time when it was released. Additionally the optimization is really poor and game often hangs for a second or two. It wouldn't be so big issue if there weren't traps on every step, trying to kill you. With such technical difficulties you're just doomed, accidentally stepping into spikes or jumping over the platform. And there are many, many platforms and many, many spikes. Definitely too many – game is designed to irritate you by being…

Tacky world setting.

    Action platformer with some pretty bad controls. It's okay if you like old Playstation games such as Crash Bandicoot or Spyro. Should last you a few hours. For me, the horrendously inaccurate platforming and hit detection make this game difficult to recommend.
