Jan 16, 2025It’s in these ideas that Nikoderiko: The Magical World shines brightest. While it’s clear the game would not exist without the likes of Crash Bandicoot or Donkey Kong, this is nostalgia done right. There are familiar ideas in the adventure, but each is transformed in a way that makes the journey of Niko and Luna feel so wonderfully creative, bright, and consistently brilliant along the way.

Dec 6, 2024Nikoderiko: The Magical World is an adventure any fan of classic platformers will surely enjoy. With tight and colorful 2.5D platforming, challenging and fun boss battles, and seven worlds to explore, it's a great time. It just falls short because it doesn't do enough to trailblaze its own vision, and often instead references more iconic titles, which admittedly, is fun, but also feels like a crutch. Still, if you're looking for a fun, short adventure, you'll probably get your money's worth here.

Oct 21, 2024If I could wish, I would like the game controls to feel a little tighter, just like I felt when I played Crash Bandicoot 4. Both Niko and Luna move a little too slowly for my taste and their jumping animations are so detailed that it sometimes feels like they are floating in the air rather than relating to real gravity. However, this is only a trifle in the context and nothing that bothers much in a game that I think pays tribute to old classics from this specific genre in the best possible way.
