    Troll and I tries to go everywhere but instead it just fail in everything. Despite the good intentions there is no direction in the game and they seems to have fit every single idea for a game they have into one.

    The story premise is interesting, but basically everything else about this game isn’t. It could have been a decent coop action adventure, but it lacks finesse on absolutely every level.

    Troll and I had the potential to be a good game: an intriguing (albeit overdone) adventure-driven story mixed with puzzle solving, combat, crafting, and more. But the game fails to successful execute any of these ideas in a meaningful way. The plot falls flat and the gameplay is repetitive and boring. The game is filled with immersion breaking bugs, and has the graphics of a PS2 era title from a Walmart bargain bin. When looking at Troll and I, remember the internet meme: “Don’t feed the troll.”

    Troll and I is full of good ideas, but poorly executed.

    Do not, under any circumstances, play Troll and I. Don't buy it on sale. Don't pirate it. Don't rent it from your local A-Z Video. Just. Say. No. The only benefit Troll and I may bring to the world is when your favorite YouTuber plays through it and provides you with many funny moments as they struggle.

    Troll and I is unplayable. By all accounts, the game is full of glitches, even on the latest generation of consoles -- let alone all of the victims who bought the game to play on a PC more than a year old. It may work on certain systems to some degree, but the advertised minimum specifications are certainly false, and therefore merit a hefty downgrade. If you manage to get past the game-breaking bugs, the gameplay itself is frustrating and unoriginal, and the story seems to have nothing to offer. Save your money and your sanity, and skip this one.

    What can one say about 'Troll And I' that hasn't already been said a thousand times? Quite simply this game is, nothing but a masterpiece. AsWhat can one say about 'Troll And I' that hasn't already been said a thousand times? Quite simply this game is, nothing but a masterpiece. As you journey throughout the story you get a real sense that these characters are actually growing as they travel with each other, the troll, and I.
    Don't trust these other reviews saying that the game was poorly made and buggy, they just haven't been able to get past the first level. ;) Once you get past this the intensity of the game really ramps up.
    Once out of the forest you embark on a mission to uncover the government conspiracy shaking the land of Jimbarta. The villagers have been subjugated to the lower classes of society forced to only serve the top 1%, and it's up to you and the troll to take down the leaders once and for all.
    Overall I found this story to be very well executed, ten times better than any so-called story based game before. Final Fantasy? Psshaww. Metal Gear Solid? Doesn't even come close.Cave Story? Forget about it!
    While the controls can be a bit weird to get used to initially, I'm sure you'll find that they're truly the best way to traverse the world. And what a world it is. There has never been a better looking game world ever designed. After a particularly long, 14 hour bender on the game, I found myself looking around outside expecting everything to look like it did in the game. That's how realistic the graphics were.
    After about the 30 hour mark you finally get to see what makes this game so special, once again it's the story. The conspiracy unraveling is an absolutely enthralling musical experience, as the game shifts to a climactic musical number for the final moments. Toby Fox couldn't have written a better musical score if he was strapped to a metronome factory flying through Ziggy Stardust's sex asteroid belt.
    In summary, this game has been able to top every other gaming experience I've ever had, and that's certainly been a lot. I can say for certain that after buying this game your life will be completely ruined. You'll have spent thousands of hours having the time of your life and nothing will ever be able to compare to the endorphin released ever again.
    That's why everyone should absolutely buy this game, nothing will compare. By the way Bush did 9/11 and the government is putting chemicals in the water to turn your kids ginger.    … Full Review »
