    Tembo has a bit of Sonic, a bit of Yoshi and a bit of Donkey Kong and it actually works pretty well, the game is fast, the controls are as tight and responsive as a good Nintendo game, it feels right to play, the levels are well designed and the game is really challenging, and I mean REALLY challenging.

    Theres no appeal to this game. Every level feels the same as the last, and is incredibly on-rails so theres no way to backtrack if you miss a single collectible, and definitely no choice, freedom, or exploration. If you like these types of games, play Sonic, Yoshi or Mario, but pass on this.

    I really like this game, i think that is the platform that i personally most enjoy in last few years. It have everything, a little of mario, part of sonic, the destruction of donkey kong multiplicate 100 times. It is 100% worth, i really recommended.

    This game is all the money because the art style it's just like a comic even the graphics are like a comic and the story is very beautiful at the same time

    The biggest flaw of this very enjoyable platformer is that it’s too short. [10/2015, p.71]

    All this makes Tembo a fine game where the really bad, really rough parts are REALLY bad and REALLY rough, in a way that brings the rest of the game down.
