A glorious marriage of pinball and platforming and a wild-spirited adventure to cherish.

8/10
A strangely successful mix of genres that plays both a mean pinball and a highly competent game of Metroidvania, and all wrapped up in some utterly charming presentation.

A blend of mismatched genres that somehow works, Yoku's Island Express is a beguiling game of modest brilliance.

40/40 Game

This is a fantastic game, with loads of character(s) and pinball based puzzles. I enjoyed this title best using a controller, I'm not sure how I feel about playing it with a mouse and keyboard though. Regardless of how you choose to enjoy this game I couldn't possibly recommend it more. It's a solid purchase, even at full price, for me.

Amazing Experience

This is a fantastic adventure pinball game that feels very much like what Sonic The Hedgehog should have been. The plot is compelling, the characters are interesting and very well designed, and the gameplay is absolutely spectacular. This is one of the best games that I've played in a long time.

Best postbeetle

metroidvania, but all the exploration and combat is just pinball, greta artwork, ctachy music with a wide variety, most of the puzzles are easy, but some are a bit frustrating, not because you can't figure it out, but because they require a lot of trial and error. Still, great game to chill and enjoy .
