I didn't expect such an involved story for such a delightful adventure-platformer. It's not deep or anything, but it's makes for a genuinely engaging narrative to comb through while you're going through the amazingly crafted levels (albeit, mostly because of their design and art), despite tripping a few times over the game's weird physics engine. Aside from the few hiccups in the controls department, this is a must-play for anyone that wants more of the absolute classics such as Jak or Klonoa. Every character is charming and most of them receive the perfect amount of on-screen time to fall in love with both their personality and early CN/Nick likeness.
It might not have been the follow up that I would have wanted, but it still executes the formula well enough to be above the average 2010s single player FPS campaign. It's worth it when it's really cheap.
There's little negative that can be said about this title, but at the same time, there's little that's astounding in any shape. A true 7/10 game. Good, but not great. Still worth it for a cathartic experience of stomping on orc heads.
It would be wrong to say that this comes close to its inspirations, but it does for a satisfying gameplay loop if you want more wild west + monsters out to get you. It's pretty good, but on the other hand - Weird West exists.
