OneWordReviews is a terrific idea that's been coopted by numbskulls (fan verdict on GTA: San Andreas: "black") and is a bit imperfect in execution - your one word has to be selected from a preapproved list, and there's a nebulous lag time for suggested additions that dampens creativity. But you can go surprisingly far in describing certain games; for example:

Castlevania: Curse of Darkness, leather-pant-y. Well, that doesn't sound like an adjective, does it. How about "chair-intensive."
Lufia II, reductionist.
Glory of Heracles, pointless.
Braid, self-impressed.
Lumines, time-consuming.
Lunar: Harmony of Silver Star, second-string.
Secret of Evermore, buggy.
Castlevania II: Simon's Quest, obtuse.
Weird Dreams, hallucinogenic.
Deadly Premonition, neighborly.
No More Heroes, Suda.
Illbleed, squelchy. (But supergreatfriend came up with that one.)
Castlevania: Judgment, gimpy.
...I'm sorry.
King's Quest II, enchanting.
Golden Axe II, cardboard.
Gauntlet, endless.
Clock Tower, phenomenal.
Angelique, "feminine."
Marble Madness, inertial.
The Dark Spire, oldest-school.
7 Days a Skeptic, depressing.
Children of Mana, ultrarepetitive.
Ultima IX, anticlimactic. That, or "unfortunate."
Ultima IV, enlightening.
The Binding of Isaac...I think the crowd has it right.
