    Jumping/gliding works really good, especially in enemy combos. Boss fights are exciting and tough as thought was put into them. Bubsy himself is great for the kids as a fun thrill seeking character. Surprisingly pulled it off, might even be better than Sonic Forces, which is a shock to say the least.

    Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back is a masterpiece and should always be remembered as one. Whether it be the option of Bubsy's verbosity, or the tasteful design of Bubsy, or the exciting and engaging boss fights, or the great controls of Bubsy, or the overall funniness of the game, you don't get better than Bubsy!

    I just finished Busby The Woolies Strike Back and this is a legit, surprisingly fun game as far as the old-school styled collectathons go. Tight controls, gradual increasing difficulty, all the hallmarks are there. You get out of it what you take part of. I have a feeling most people just run through and you're kinda missing the point.

If you collect all the shirts, wool, and go for no deaths, it steps up everything about the game in so many ways. Though I haven't played recent Giana Sisters game, many of the same elements are in both being from the same developer.… Expand

    I'm surprised, Black forest made a good bubsy game. The controls are a lot less slippery than the original games, and the levels and bosses were great. The only problem was that the length of the game was a little too short, you can beat this in a couple hours. Other than that, this game is really good, and if Bubsy is here to stay, I will be happy to get another game, but this time HAVEI'm surprised, Black forest made a good bubsy game.

    An ugly epilogue to a series which actually did not deserve to start in the first place. [01/2018, p.56]

    With an awkward difficulty curve and some questionable sonic choices, this isn’t a purrfect platformer, but it’s certainly good enough for meow. I’m not kitten around when I say this is a competent platformer that deserves a look in if you can get it fur a decent price.

    With Sonic and Mario in the spotlight again, Bubsy takes another swipe at being a lovable mascot, but doesn’t succeed in capturing the same sentiment. Ultimately, Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back (Bubsy), the platforming game, arrives as the two-decades-too-late 5th entry in the series. Despite excellent controls, the title does not overcome some of its more pressing shortcomings, such as level design, resulting in a sub-par gaming experience.
