About this game
Super Meat Boy 3D puts wall jumping and hazard avoidance into three-dimensional levels. You steer Meat Boy across gaps and circular saws, using wall running as another way to traverse the course. The camera keeps a controlled angle relative to each level rather than handing you a freely rotating third-person view. Progress takes you through burning forests, rubbish dumps and high-tech forges, with the platforming challenges increasing in difficulty. Boss encounters punctuate the levels, while unlockable secrets and the more demanding Dark World stages provide further objectives. The central activity remains navigating the next stretch of traps through movement and timing.
Collected in series
Super Meat Boy centres on a small meat hero threading his way through saws, spikes and tightly placed obstacles. Its platform games explore that idea through direct-control jumping, automatic running and three-dimensional courses, with grisly cartoon humour along the way.

AI review
AI reviews are subjective assessments, not player ratings. See each review for its evidence and limitations.Published date:
A demanding movement challenge for players who enjoy refining jumps around explicit hazards.
Wall jumping and wall running make route execution the main attraction for players who enjoy learning movement sequences. Escalating stages and Dark World challenges suggest a better fit for persistence than for relaxed sightseeing.
Strengths
- Combining wall jumps with wall running can make successful traversal feel like solving a movement sequence.
- Bosses, secrets and Dark World stages offer different goals beyond simply reaching the next level.
Weaknesses
- The controlled camera may feel restrictive to players who prefer choosing their own viewing angle.
Who it is for: Players drawn to precise jumps, difficult obstacle courses and optional challenges.
Play notes: The increasing difficulty makes tolerance for repeated unsuccessful attempts an important preference.
