Pixel Battle Royale is the Battle Royale version of a Minecraft/Unturned Rip-Off. Sadly however it is not even the best Rip-Off. The smartphone games 'Pixel's Unknown Battleground' and 'Grand Battle Royale' have at least the same level of visual presentation, but their maps are actually better designed. The weapon and game model variety is also much better in both of them. Minecraft Hunger Games (The original Minecraft Battle Royale game) and Survival Games (The Minecraft copy, which got the closest to the original) are also superior in most aspects and for everybody, who prefers pixel graphics without the squarish Minecraft Blocks, Unturned seems like a much better choice than Pixel Battle Royale. Battle Royal Survival has many things in common with Pixel BR, but I would choose Pixel as the better of two not so great choices after all.
The population of Pixel Battle Royale is really low, which means there are usually 0-2 people playing online. Luckily you can create private lobbies in this game and add up to 19 Bots to them (20 player maximum in all modes). I have actually been lucky enough to get into some lobbies with other people playing BR, TDM or on an Exploration mode (Pixel BR has additional DM, TDM and Exploration modes aside from the regular BR and one can create private or public lobbies for all of them). The Bots in Pixel BR are a bit too weak in my opinion. Unless a player screws up massively, he is not going to have a challenge playing against Bots.
There is only a handful of weapons in this game (Axe, Pistol, Shotgun, SMG, Sniper). The pistol is pretty imprecise, the SMG is okay and the Sniper Rifle is pretty good. Overall the weapon selection does feel a bit limited and the weapon feedback could certainly be better.
There are also cars as vehicles in the game. They however don't seem to work so well, since they are only a little bit faster than walking and the map is too small and matches too short to really utilize them.
The map isn't so great, unless you compare it to Battle Royale Survival, since this map at least has a volcano and buildings on different floor levels than the ground. In comparison to the best F2P BR games out there however the map is still one of the weaker ones.
The visuals are not that great either, but at least a bit better than that of Battle Royale Survival. You can customize the sound volume and many other options, which shouldn't necessarily be a plus, but I sadly have experienced differently in some other games. Only weird thing is, that dead enemies always moan like they would be close by, after they got eliminated somewhere around the map.
Pro:
-Sniper weapon works
-Multiple game modes
-Full Bot support (Private lobbies possible)
Contra:
-Bad Visuals
-Weapon feedback isn't great and selection is quite limited
-Map isn't great
-Low population
-Bots a bit too weak
Result:
I believe this game is the better alternative to Battle Royale Survival, but I wouldn't recommend it to anybody, unless they want to experience every Minecraft/Pixel inspired BR game there is. At least it is free and has private lobbies/bot support.
3.5/10
