Tad the Lost Explorer is a 3D jump and run platformer (4 little open worlds) and also with 2D sections ( each world have 3) mixed in the adventure with a few puzzles and collectiables to find in the worlds simular to Spyro and Ty the Tasmanian Tieger but sadly worse in almost very single way, its still ok but nothing more: Pros: + the style is good + Chicago and Paris worlds have good level design and feels fun to play + story can be ok even it isnt much + the game have humor somehow with a few things you can notice Cons: - missing a lot of sound effects in the worlds all feels to quiet - final boss have hit box problem if i shot on him then something the hit dont count - Egypt feels a little bit boring a little bit to empty and collectiables to find here is not that fun, also the 2D sections in Egypt are pretty weak - Ramona is not that fun as a playable character weird flying physics that dont feel smooth at all - Chicago City map the music stops playing when getting on a high roof, some roofs are at the edge of the music area and it constantly starts and stops playing which is really weird that nobody in the game sutdio notice this bug - the first open world map have a lot of …

The first part is all about pyramids, looks rather good in 3D, even better in 2D (except for a pervasive blur that cannot be turned off,) offers more mechanics than anticipated, and is decently amusing. It feels like a Lara Croft for kids: cartoonish both visually and narratively, simple, easy, forgiving... Not much to dispraise, really; just a glitch, a failing door trigger in a 2D section, fixed by a quick Quit/Continue combo. Fine interface and controls, with abundant checkpoints, a level selector for completists, convenient skips... Unfortunately, the next chapter starts with some truly unwanted gameplay, apparently a combination of simultaneous sneaking and racing, replacing the puzzle-platforming. In the boring landscape of an urban park by night, besides; not exactly sugar to coat that unpalatable pill. Instant loss of interest from me, as is often the case when timers get involved. I don't puzzle on the clock, even less so with inadequate camera and poorly explained goals. The game abruptly loses clarity, visual attraction, exotism, low repeat appeal, vibrancy, rating points, brownie points, upward thumbs, karma, and so on.

This one is a hidden gem!!! A charming 3D platformer with some 2.5D levels, that's mixed so well which brings lightness to the gameplay and the overall experience. I loved the diversity of places you travel like Central America, Chigaco, Paris, and Egpyt, this is really adds a plus and enriched the game, also the game design and the art design are pretty decent. 7.0/10

The boat race really sucks. It's near impossible and I just quit playing after never beating it.
