    While definitely on the short side for its price, I had a lot of fun with how simple a game it is, and it’s perfect for a lazy Sunday afternoon.

    Time is this game’s worst enemy. It truly does not fare well for long play periods. Maybe that’s the point, though. Maybe it really is just meant to be the game you pick up for a quick hour of fun before going to bed or getting back to the real world. That may bother some. For me, that realization shifted my perspective and shifted how I truly feel about games such as this. It’s marketed as an easy game for tired people, and it works as that. It doesn’t have complex mechanics or deep world-building. Here Comes Niko provides you with just enough to enjoy the time you have with it and move on.

    But look past the bright soundtrack and lovely character art and you might find that there’s no chocolate center.

It's absolutely adorable, I love the main character Niko and all the other characters around. The different islands are cool and you can explore them all plenty.
    My problem with the game lies in the time it took me to finish it and the price they set for it.
    It didn't even take me a quarter of a day to finish the game. I explored each island thoroughly and still only had, like, five hours play time maximum. Which is an absolute shame. I would have loved to see more locations with these characters or something. But nope, none of that.
    And herein lies my problem with the pricing of the game. Yeah, it looks great but there's just so little to do overall and I payed around 20 bucks for that game, which seems like a waste to me now. The game was a experience for sure, but for so little playtime the price really isn't valid.
    Great game, just not really long and a bit overpriced.    … Full Review »

But that's prettyThis was a very nice experience to play and I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing 3D collectathon platformer. But that's pretty much all I can say about this game.

    It sadly didn't feel (for a lack of better terms) special. Many missions you go on are quite repetitive and the story ends up being resolved in an unsatisfying way.

    That being said, I was entertained the whole way through and had fun!
    Looking forward to what this team produces next!    … Full Review »
