    If Pixar made a platformer, this would be it.

    By focusing on the gameplay experience first, On Rusty Trails has put together a rather simple yet cunningly effective game.

    Extremely successful platformer whose greatest weakness is short game time. Advantages balance this problem fully with incredible playfulness, great logic puzzles and mainly delicious feeling of pure jumping.

    Rusty Trails may seem like the next indie platformer, but this is way above average. It keeps on coming with fresh and new challenges and the story is intertwined with the gameplay perfectly. It's such a pity the controls are not optimal and the ending is very sudden.

    On Rusty Trails is a refreshing side-scroller with a handful of intriguing mechanics and a clever level design. It doesn't offer any originality, but it's very well-made and mostly enjoyable in the medium term.

    A solid game that fails to break new ground but was obviously developed by people who understand how platformers should be designed. [09/2016, p.55]

    Nice "platformer" with a very simple story "like two pennies", and high-quality game-play. Cornerstone - change colors from blue to red byNice "platformer" with a very simple story "like two pennies", and high-quality game-play. Cornerstone - change colors from blue to red by jumping onto platforms of the desired color and avoid lasers/rains of the opposite color. I liked the whole game except for one - the bosses. There are two of them and they are ... uninteresting(but at least there are some here)... And the achievement of "10 thousand jumps". I used to sit and just push the button for couple an hours at the last levels (-_-)
    The game is worth the money and interesting. So, perhaps, I can recommend "thumbs up." But I’ll put a rating just normal next to a good one - 8 out of 10.    … Expand
