Ping Redux was released in 2019 and originally cost $4.99, but became free to play on the Xbox store last week, as reported by Pure Xbox. Users report that once a player gets the hang of the game, it's a reasonable goal to 100% Ping Redux in three to four hours. While the game offers a total of 1000 gamerscore, some users might not want to put in the time or effort towards completing every single achievement. In that case, Ping Redux players can focus on some of the simpler achievements, which include You Died! (Die once for 20g), Boss 1 Defeated! (Defeat World 1's boss for 30g), and 4000 Bounces (bounce 4,000 times for 80g).

Ping Redux varies its gameplay as the user progresses through its levels. It increases the difficulty by introducing more complicated mazes to navigate and changing up the requirements to complete a level. Ping Redux offers a nostalgic look and feel, so if players are looking for a retro throwback game, they should give this game a try.

Although Ping Redux's presentation is somewhat simple, it's apparent that a lot of effort went into its level design. As the user progresses, the levels get more and more intricate, and despite the increasing number of moving pieces and complexity, the game remains highly enjoyable. Although Ping Redux isn't up there with the games that are receiving nominations for Best Game Direction at The Game Awards, players can expect a satisfying experience that offers plenty of gamerscore.

Recently, Xbox clamped down on games designed to offer easy gamerscore, due to some games being specifically designed to give players quick achievement unlocks. With this new shortage of achievement-friendly games, Ping Redux is likely a welcome discovery for gamerscore fanatics.
