This game was just not good. I don’t know if its just the switch version or all but there are massive framerate issues. It’s just not that fun to play either.
I though a colorful adventure game from Square Enix what could go wrong. Apparently everything….

Son really enjoys playing this game, he says it is a bit difficult to get to the different levels. Overall, he gave it a thumbs up.

I wanted to like this game— I played it for 10 hours. You move a character around 3D platforming maps while transforming into different “transformations” sort of like mario, except in each transformation all four of your buttons perform the same action (A is jump, B is jump too, X is jump too, etc). The stage design is quite drab in this game, and the music is unfortunate. If there was a positive thing about this game, I would say it still makes you work to solve platforming puzzles. I dislike that boss battles are short and all work mostly the same. If you want to play this game, I would do so with your expectations low.

Well worth it i recommend this game to anyone love the switch. I know most people hate this game but they are wrong
Mike –
If you like Banjo- Nintendo 64 and Crash Bandicoot how could you not love this game. It’s simple-yet-varied, endlessly imaginative, and designed with all the sensibilities of the bygone platformers of yesteryear.

Really slow sloppy poorly made games come on guys that pretty bad
Omeaos –
Sweet, fun and entertaining, not the best platformer out there, but one that does have a new touch on your general jump over platforms.

This game is garbage lol. No wonder it was marked down to $20 after 3 months

It’s A Gift but I Know They Wanted This Game ………..
Godnamedtay –
Terrible game. With a great developer putting his name on the line with this game I think he should retire from video games because this was a dumpster fire! Purchase at your own risk.
SpecialK –
I bought this for the meme, because it was on sale. Don’t actually recommend to spend money on it to play unless you like jank

I had read that this game was a big disappointment but i can’t say for sure as i have not tried it yet but it looks awesome!

This is a game that you play for the experience. This game is not good, but it’s something I’ll tell my grandkids. “Back in the day, Yuji Naka thought he could pull a fast one on me, but nah”
Carlj –
Great game fun to pay and a really good price worth it
Emer –
Is ok game is worth the sales price which I paid $15

I’ll be honest, I only bought this because I played the awful demo and want a reference point on everything to not do in games if I ever make one.
On the positive side, the cutscenes are very much reminiscent of the drug trip you imagined happened while playing Nights into Dreams as a kid. On the negative side, the platform mechanics are dreadful, the equivalent of Chao are fun for like 3 mins, and though they patched what made people nauseous from the demo (to the point people that normally don’t get motion sickness with games ended up getting motion sick), this is very much a thing that can still happen with the first stage.
Earthworm –
Nice graphics. Costumes with separate abilities…………………
Squarehard –
Fun game, but be aware that it’s kind of glitchy at times. The game itself has some interesting game mechanics, and the outfits and such are kind of neat. There is a 2 player mode, so if you want to have a game for multiplayer game, this is a pretty decent one as well. Not perfect by any means, but fun.
Inku –
Seeing trailers i was excited for the game but after demo and final game, very disappointed. Interesting ideas that are poorly executed, and visually it lacks the visual imagination it kept aiming for, and gameplay is just bland and boring.
Masterquake7 –
This game passed QA? I’m guessing that testers fell asleep during the first hour and just passed it to keep from having to play the rest of this. Hard skip unless you want it for the collection.
Mandy –
I bought this game few days ago. It was a great game
Cinva –
This game is magical for little kids to play with I see my grandkids just in awe when I turn this one on
SCG1997 –
For reasons Beyond me I have no idea why Square Enix even approved for this game to be released.
Spunkygirl –

Calen –

Goodies –

GameFan48 –
Don’t know why this game didn’t do better. It is totally fun!
VBaca –
They say it’s the worst game ever but it was actually fun and entertaining
JohnnySB –
This game is really bad. It seems like it was just a terrible idea or execution
OctoberR0se –
It’s ok… if you are playing solo, I don’t recommend as a co-op game.
It’s pretty. It’s fun. It’s vibrant…
but the adventure is better solo.
Branden –
Really good game. Definitely recommend. They should make a second.
jimbo –
Good game for my daughter who is 9 years old. A little old school but fun to play. Probably a gmae you would not play every day like some of the others
ChrisTup –
This is another game we bought for our granddaughter.. she just loves her game’s.. she can’t wait to get more..
Andru1 –
If you want to play a fun platformer with an interesting plot, well there are better options, but this one ain’t that bad.
Just don’t get the Switch version.
Adam2003s –
This game is kind of basic. It was fun for alittle bit. I dont see myself playing this very often.
Timothy –
This game is rough, lol. Both the quality of the game itself, and it’s performance on the Nintendo Switch are super rough. The game is pretty, I will give it that, but it chugs along on the switch like a picture slideshow at about 10 to 15 frames per second. The game itself though is VERY basic. Looks beautiful graphic wise, but it’s very bland and boring. It almost plays and feels like a cheap mobile game.
William –
came in good really good great game for the kids.
Thomas –
Easily one of the worst games ever made. I picked it up because it might be a rare collector’s item someday.
AgingGamer –
10 dollars for a physical game. Why not soent more in a crappy lunch
CSGO13 –
Not a good game at all, which is what I expected. Just bought it incase it gets rare one day. Very blinding lights.
SoSoDisneyFan –
Decent graphics, maybe an interesting story, but the controls ruin the game
JustinM –
I love it! Dont believe the memes and just enjoy the game for what it is
Lido –
If I could rate this below 1 star I would. I really only bought this as something to add to the collection, because I feel like humans in the future will want to know what problems this era faced.

Bestbuy comes through again with another awesome deal on a great item. My favorite store to shop at. Check out the deals of the day!
Flash –
It’s a fun game but kind of confusing and no where near the top level of games
TechDad –
A lot more fun than many YouTube reviews have you believe. It is a little simplistic in terms of control scheme and not many of the suits are actually used more than once. Overall it’s a good time.
