Little Nemo and the Guardians of Slumberland

I liked the game quite a bit despite a few finagling issues. The gameplay was generally fun and I appreciated the attempt to do something a little bit different with the Nemo lore. Ultimately, what I liked best was the art, aesthetics, and music; all of which drew me in and made me want to see it through to completion. However, speaking of completion, I do want to note that I found it frustrating to finally find all of the blue moons only to realize that I'm still missing something that's keeping me from 100%, while also having no idea what that "something" is. I definitely think that after the first playthrough is complete, speaking to the king should basically put all of the remaining icons on the map for anything you're still missing, even if that part of the map itself is still unexplored. It would go a long way towards making completion feel like less of a chore. I also ran into a few bugs where I either managed to end up out of bounds and had to wake myself to get out of that state, or where the game would simply crash unexpectedly, but that didn't hamper my enjoyment all that much. Other issues include the fact that you have to return to the bedroom to swap buddies or fast travel, which just makes the game take longer than it really needs to. Nemo's default movement speed could stand to be a little faster, too. Otherwise, I'm quite pleased with the experience overall. Here's hoping another title comes down the line that improves on the solid foundation that's here.

Com a nostalgia dos sonhos de criança, Little Nemo and the Guardians of Slumberland constrói uma apresentação visual de excelência e atenção aos detalhes. Para além da bela aparência, a abertura do mundo e o mapa eficiente são ótimos convites à exploração desta aventura metroidvania que tem movimentos mais pesados do que eu gostaria, mas que, no todo, oferece um verdadeiro deleite tanto para os que ainda estão na infância quanto para os que ainda se lembram dela. Eu joguei na dificuldade Challenging e meu filho de 7 anos, na Fair (dá o dobro de pontos de vida). Ele está perto do final, mas precisou de minha orientação em alguns momentos, como em chefes, e também para ler as falas em inglês. O dev disse que português brasileiro está nos planos, mas ainda não há previsão para adicionar idiomas. Meu laptop não tem placa de vídeo dedicada, mas funcionou bem o bastante, embora não muito fluido. Prós - A apresentação estética é impecável nos mínimos detalhes, tanto no visual desenhado e de animações fluidas quanto nos menus; - Grande abertura que incentiva a exploração, permitindo visitar a fundo as diferentes áreas fora da ordem determinada; - O mapa é bem-feito e eficiente para a navegação e a busca pelos segredos; - O menu de opções é detalhado e inclui ajustes de dificuldade. Contras - Mesmo que parcialmente opcionais, pode haver excesso na exposição didática e na vontade de fornecer ajuda; - Algumas mecânicas de movimento são rígidas, diminuindo a precisão e a agilidade de seu uso; - Há poucos chefes para a proporção da campanha.

I actually really liked the game itself. Its pretty fun, the boss mechanics are good, you definitely get that old school style feel and if you're into side scrolling puzzle platformers its not a bad choice. However, I can't recommend this game due to what I can only describe as "Trans Coding" Looking at the release date, its clear that this ideology has seeped in. You've got sex-changed main characters and Nemo is wearing the Trans Flag colors of pink and light blue. You can change his Pajamas, of course, but even the Guardian Characters you find are very weird and frankly not characters I'm very interested in. Nemo is a game primarily for children, or for people looking to rediscover their childhood I'm sure that putting pro-trans ideology into a kid's game is not appropriate nor is it something I am going to financially support. This Studio has one game to their name and I can see why. Refunded.

This game definitely shows that a game feeling like an NES game without looking like one doesn't have to mean it feels dated. Depending how determined you are to navigate areas you're not technically equipped for, you can play this game more open ended than it means you to, giving the player as much room to follow the recommended path as it does to allow freely exploring the world, though, you'll find that you're unable to fully explore places without the moves you may have missed going somewhere early.

Not a terrible game but not a masterpiece. I's a very $20 game. You will get exactly what you expect from that price. Control is good but the level design is often confusing. The story lacks and never really justifies your reason for playing. I recommend this game lightly.

A charming and accessible Metroidvania that beautifully honors its source material while carving out its own unique identity.

Stumbled upon this game by complete surprise in the steam sale. A little over an hour in and I've beaten two bosses and I'm completely hooked. If there was a single word I could use to describe this game, it'd be charming. OOZING with charm in the best way. The music is an earworm, the art style is terrific, even the story, something I normally check out of with these kinds of games, has me interested. It just seems so... cute. Like it reminds me of being a little boy. Sometimes a game comes a long and hooks my heart immediately. This is shades of Wonder Boy in the best way. Deeply satisfied with this purchase already. Played on an AMD BC-250 using Bazzite and it runs like a dream (no pun intended).

This game is frustratingly hard, which is fine. ] can deal with that. What I cant deal with is inconsistent game mechanics that will stump your progress by 90%. It's always the same thing with Metroidvanias... the friggin' hook/tether/swing mechanic where you have to shoot hoops and swing from them. If the mechanic isn't well balanced, you can find yourself falling thousands of times on the same damn ring, I'm done with this game.

Ho iniziato a seguire il progetto fin dall'inizio, mi ha catturato subito l'estetica, all'estetica uniamo il fatto che amo i metroidvania. Dopo averlo finito posso dire al 100% che è promosso. Il backtracking (cosa molto importante per un metroidvania) è fatto come si deve, non devi tornare senza teletrasporti all'inizio del gioco per proseguire. Sul piano artistico è proprio bello da vedere e le musiche sempre azzeccate. Come gameplay non aspettatevi una cosa che rispecchi l'estetica, il gioco in se sembra facile, ma non sempre lo è. Non è impossibile, ma è impegnativo. Insomma, un ottimo CuteVania!

Desde que jugue la demo de este juego el año pasado, he deseado tanto jugarlo que ahora que por fin puedo, lo voy jugando, aun no lo termine pero siento que estoy cada vez mas cerca y descubro todos los secretos que puedo ahora que tengo todas las habilidades! El apartado artistico la verdad es de lo mejor que podras ver en este juego, la musica no se queda atras tampoco. Al principio puede dar la sensacion de que podria ser un juego facil pero rapidamente te das cuenta que la dificultad puede escalar, las batallas con jefes la verdad son muy buenas y algunas me han hecho intentar una y otra vez. Creo que eso es todo lo que puedo decir de este juego, seguramente me seguira sorprendiendo hasta el final del mismo, este y Escape From Ever After son GOTYs para mi en este 2026 y estamos en apenas el mes de Mayo, tremendo!
