Nice Game Also, the tutorial is wonderful!

Very fun (mildly frustrating at some points) Took me roughly an hour to complete. Had a blast playing the few levels and different gamemodes. Recommend this game if you're looking for a small, quick game.
Recommended Dec 8, 2024
This has become my 6yo son's favourite video game and I love it as it has so much old school side scroller feel. Watching him move his whole body and arms to the right to try and make that big jump and then learning about resilience and patience and trying over and over is quite amusing. Definitely recommend. Also the ability to use a controller on this is great.

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
