    Rise & Shine is sadly just not very good. If you are looking for similar styled platformer with more flair, and content, and also featuring a normally inanimate object that talks and is equally as visually impressive then grab Rad Rogers: World One instead as this one is bargain bin basement stuff that you should not be encouraging by spending full price on it.

    I really wanted to give this game a chance but Rise & Shine is like a patient diagnosed with schizophrenia. It serves beautiful colorful graphics in post apocalyptic world, the main hero is 10 year old kid but the game let him die painfully in explicit scenes, it accents on covering system but don’t let you to use properly due to constant enemy fire, it requires precise navigation of guided bullets but gives you imprecise controls, it wants to build the oppressive atmosphere but throws the many jokes into it. And I could continue like this.

    Pros:
    - game mechanics
    - weapon upgrades
    - puzzles
    - system of respawn
    - graphics
    - music
    - sounds

    Cons:
    - unpredictable game behavior
    - trial and error approach
    - punishing gameplay
    - controls
    - story
    - no dubbing
    - no local multiplayer

    Rise & Shine is a nice example of a game that is beautiful on the outside but rotten on the inside. I have to therefore give this game Thumbs Down and VideoGaming Father’s Index 4 out of 10 - not recommended.    … Expand

    When it comes down to it, Rise & Shine is unable to create an engaging experience by itself, with mechanics that are not utilized to the best extent. Worse, the game feels like a chore to play, as I felt that I had to rely predominantly on luck in order to advance through much of the game. For all the strength of its graphics and introductory stages, Rise & Shine is unable to create a compelling experience worth playing.

    The game looks amazing and is overall very charming, but it seems it lost half of its content along the way, because it ends before it manages to fulfill its potential. I also felt that the designers couldn’t agree on how combat should play out, so it got stuck somewhere between tactical and frenetic. [03/2017, p.62]

    Rise & Shine's cute look lulls you into thinking that this is going to be an awesome game. Hand-drawn backgrounds and characters look great, the animation is smooth, and the attention to detail is everywhere. But the controls are insufferable: it's difficult to target your enemies while playing on gamepad, and good luck dashing and jumping with a keyboard.
