Let's face it; the main draw of this game is it's cartoony visuals.
That's not to say that it's not a game worth playing (it's reviewed
quite well) but most people are going to decide based on its
appearance. Which, I think, is fair since it otherwise lacks in
novelty. It's a 'metroidvania' style platformer (albeit perhaps a bit
easier than most in that genre), with good controls and fun
characters. But take away its aesthetic style and it doesn't really
stand out from its competitors. The TL;DR is that if either the genre
or graphics appeal to you, you'll probably like this game; if neither
do anything for you, then nothing else in the game will convince you
of its worth.

Another free game. Hey, I wonder if there's a time limit before the
freebie goes away. I bet there is. Can you guess how long?

I took it since it got good ratings. I doubt I will play it.
