Zissi's Island

This game won't be winning a nobel peace prize anytime soon, but if you read the descripition and like what you read I promise that you will have a good time. This game sucked me in and I rushed to completion in one playthrough and had a lot of fun sharing its quirky moments with my friends. The one "downside" to the game is that the game has multiple endings and seems very hard to avoid bad ending on first playthrough which was frustrating at first but looking back at it I think just added to the funny experience. Since finishing my first run I've taken a lil break but am excited to spend my next day off getting lost in the world all over again and hopefully not pissing off grandma.

Zissi's Island looked decent, but the controls ruined the experience for me. If you can get past the controls, I think there's a good game here. The game is an open environment with lots of areas to explore. Unlike other games, there isn't much of a tutorial and you are left to learn on your own by playing around and talking to NPCs. There's various collectables to find, but I didn't get very far because of the control issues. I didn't realize the control issues until I came across some leafs to jump on. While a small push on the control stick would only move Zissi a little on the ground, the same small push would send her quite far in the air. This makes precise jumps extremely difficult and causes frustration when they're required. From what little I saw of the world, this doesn't seem like a big component of the game. Besides the control issues, I found the world to be a little boring. There's a lot of empty space between areas and towns are sparse.

This game is flawed, its buggy, it feels incomplete. I still have to say I enjoyed my time with it overall. It is a very short experience, and feels like it would be at home on the PS1 or N64 as a family friendly platformer. I think it was worth the price I paid for it over all, and wish the devs the best on their other ventures. 4 potatoes

Cute little platformer. Got Softlocked so I gave up but its cute.

This is a very fun little platformer, which reminds me of the good old days, as it doesn't exactly hold your hand through the whole thing. I managed to beat the game while getting a bad ending in 4 hours, and it is fun enough that I will probably try to find everything and get the best ending.

A funny, fun game.
