Tomba! Special Edition

You're probably looking at this because you played it in the 90's on first release. I was a kid back then and I had a blast. Now, does it live up to that nostalgic hype? No. But. It's still a surprisingly fun and interesting game. Tomba is a near infinite mish mash of weird ideas. It's kind of a metroidvania without the developers realizing that that was a genre. There's a huge emphasis on quests with a near point and click mentality. There are several systems in the game that make no sense and the developers probably couldn't explain why they are here. But that all works together to crate something energetic and VERY unique. To the point that you don't have to have played the game before. It's a little janky to get into and the this release saves itself with a rewind feature you should use liberally (I have no bloody idea how I beat this as a child). Plus we get some need dev extras. That's always cool. 6/10. Worth a play. But I totally acknowledge there's a large chunk of people who aren't going to get past the first thirty minutes here.

Two playthroughs. First took me 15 hours. First time playing the full game and I didn't know about the ones you can miss. 129/130. Fun game, strange storyline, not so straightforward questline but overall 10/10.

Muito bom.

Its Tomba. Its old and very dated and is not the most intuitive to navigate or solve the quests but its a serviceable port. There is some cool added content in the Museum but the base game is pretty untouched apart from adding in rewind and some scaling settings. If ya wanna play some Tomba, can def do worse, but I'd probably try to catch it on sale.

An excellent old classic! Respectably remastered with a few helpful options on screen filters and rewinding.
