Sackboy™: A Big Adventure

Although the game is enjoyable to play, it fails to catch the theme of Little Big Planet and what is the worst, the story is so short that the game just ends when you thought you are just getting started. Also the levels are so much better in the beginning, filled with energy and all of that, but after a few they become poorly made and more anxious than something to have fun with. Feels more like a DLC rather than a full priced game, hence I'm not able to recommend it for a full price and as a "full" game in LBP universe.

Sackboy: A Big Adventure was such a cute little joy bomb. I loved LittleBigPlanet back on PlayStation, so getting to play another Sackboy game already had me by the nostalgia strings. There is just something about this little stitched-up guy running around these bright, crafty worlds that makes my brain happy. I played this with my girlfriend, and we had yards of fun with it. It is adorable, colorful, silly, and the kind of co-op game that can be genuinely sweet one minute and then immediately turn into both of you yelling because someone missed a jump, grabbed the wrong thing, or accidentally became a tiny fabric liability. The levels are super charming. Everything has that handmade, arts-and-crafts look, like the whole world was built out of felt, buttons, cardboard, glitter, and pure serotonin. The platforming is easy enough to enjoy casually, but still has enough little challenges, secrets, collectibles, and chaos to keep it fun. It is also just a really good couch co-op game. You can play together without it feeling too stressful, but there is still plenty of room for nonsense. Helping each other, sabotaging each other by accident, laughing at dumb mistakes, pretending the mistake was “the controller,” obviously. Sackboy is cozy, playful, nostalgic, and full of charm. It reminded me why I loved LittleBigPlanet in the first place, while still feeling like its own cute little adventure. If you want something fun, lighthearted, and genuinely sweet to play with someone you love, this one is a very good time. Also, Sackboy remains one of the cutest little dudes in gaming. No notes.

Fun game for local coop. Never tried online coop.

Muito bem feito e divertido de jogar em coop.

An actually super underrated platformer. It definitely borrows pretty heavily from Super Mario 3D World, but that's not a bad place to pull from. The music levels are absolutely stellar too. There are the collectibles to find and score attacks to chase, and the story is pretty cute. There are two gripes I have. I usually 100% games like this, but so much of the collectibles are trapped in multiplayer, but no one is playing. Also, the performance got a little choppy in spots which is strange for an older game with this hardware. Still, those don't diminish what is a game people need to check out as it might be the last Sony platformer on PC for awhile.

I have been wanting this game since it came out - nabbed it during the Summer sale and I must say its better than I ever expected. The music and dyanmic sound design is incredible, the controls are super intuitive and the world building sucks you in. If you love whimsical games or are a fan of the Little Big Planet games I fully recommend this. 10/10

Super challenging game to the point were it annoys me, really.

Don't buy this game at full price. It's a pretty fun game but it's extremely short. the soundtrack is fun but isn't as epic as LittleBigPlanet 1 or 2's. I only bought this at the time in hopes that it could encourage Sony to make another LittleBigPlanet game. Unfortunately, I have never been able to find another player using the game's matchmaking.

Mehh, not as good as the og LBP games, but it is something.

[b]TL;DR:[/b] The optimization is terrible. I am giving it a [b]6/10 mainly because of the performance issues[/b]. I am not sure whether the problem is with the game itself or Microslop's problem, but after finishing just one map, the multiplayer framerate drops to around 40 FPS. Even then, it feels so choppy that playing becomes a nightmare. Restarting the game fixes the issue, and everything works normally again. Performance problems aside, the game is genuinely fun to play with someone. I will also post an update after testing it on CachyOS
