juegazo divertido como el original
WARNING: This is NOT a bad game, just a glitched one, but you should be able to get over a good number of glitches. I found the solution for the majority of the issues, but that doesn't make things suddenly ok BEFORE playing you must do two things otherwise the bugs and problems I describe below will occur 1. Set your monitor Refresh Rate to 60Hz 2. Ensure the game's resolution matches your monitor's. Then when the game starts, alt tab out of it and then alt tab back into it because by default it runs on a higher refresh rate, this, in most cases causes it to run at the same Refresh Rate (in this case 60Hz) as your monitor. If this doesn't work, just set it to Windowed mode, then back to fullscreen while maintaining the same resolution as your monitor. After that, Wonder Boy Returns Remix will work as intended and you won't have disappearing platforms and other issues, at least I didn't see any up to World 4 anymore. HOWEVER if you don't change your monitor to 60Hz, the following happens: 1. Platforms will Spawn in unreachable areas or spawn in the wrong position altogether making it impossible to jump on 2. if the player stands on them during the split second they disappear into a poof of dust/cloud, there's a chance the player character will disappear, softlocking the game. BUT you shouldn't even be seeing the platforms disappearing like that to begin with as it turns out once I changed my monitor to 60Hz Before changing the Monitor to 60Hz, I thought it is not difficulty that plagues this game, it's actually a very easy, smooth experience, but one that feels like it was put together by 10 year olds rather than people who understand game design....well on PC with the refresh rate issues...turns out those 10 year olds balanced for Refresh Rate locking out anyone who doesn't have their monitor set to a mere 60Hz. It's a huge downgrade compared to the original wonder boy games and while eventually the visuals CAN grow on you, the game can be too broken to allow for relaxation to just set in and be enjoyed for what it is, because if you miss the refresh rate fix, as soon as you get comfortable, a game/level breaking glitch is just around the corner. A simple, linear pick up and play experience is always welcome, but that experience has to actually be functional and in this case, it's functional only if you troubleshoot. Once you get the game up and running as intended, it's very enjoyable and the music is actually great. Visuals are a mixed bag, it looks like a flashgame, there were so many other ways to draw this, just look at the Dragon's Trap remake, but we got what we got it doesn't look awful. Still my Not Recommended score stands until the developers make the game always revert to 60Hz on its own when launched because that definitely is NOT what is happening with mine. Buy the console version instead of the PC one
El juego es espectacular pero tiene un bug MUY grave... las plataformas que van de arriba a abajo de la pantalla, como las nubes de los niveles de playa, a veces "spawnean" mal o algo así y en vez de ir de arriba a abajo completamente se esfuman aleatoriamente en varios puntos... Al parecer el problema se da en monitores que van a mas de 60 de frecuencia, pero aun bajando eso desde las opciones de Windows, sigue ocurriendo... Este error no fue parcheado nunca, no hicieron caso a los jugadores que lo presenaron. Por esta razón NO recomiendo el juego, aunque sea hermoso...
Świetny remake gierki którą ogrywałem na commodore 64 :) polecam, może i krótka ale jakże wciągająca
Игра конечно приятнее играется чем на Денди, НО - она стала гораздо сложнее, теперь даже первые 2 мира уже не расслабон. Мне не зашло, зачем мне такой челлендж? А еще непонятки с исчезающими облачками, хотя в прохождении на тех же местах облака ведут себя нормально, что за баг? Не зашло. кал.
난이도도 매우 쉬워졌습니다. 배경도 다양하게 나와서 좋습니다!
생각보다 많이 별로였음
Nostalgia at its finest... And I still keep dying a lot. Good remake has stage selections.
Saudosista do "jogo-fonte" para mastersystem, sega! Este replíca bem o jogo original, mas faltou carisma! Ainda sim, valeu conhecer!
el juego es bueno, pero tiene un problema que viene desde que salio y aun no lo han arreglado. al salir del juego te crashea el pc. la primera vez tuve que reiniciarlo por que no dejaba hacer nada. es una pena que ese problema exista hasta hoy en el 2025 y nunca lo han arreglado, ya que el juego salio en el 2019: no lo recomiendo, al menos que arreglen el gran problema
