    Excruciatingly difficult at times. The gameplay itself is very fast paced and action packed. I got it for free with Playstation Plus, but if you're up for a very hardcore challenge then this game is worth the €15 it normally costs.

Other than that, a nice fairytale world with an interesting mechanic of switching between worlds/sisters in the real time with an interchanging music styles of the same tracks, which was a really nice touch. In the end however, it's nice, but still just a simple kiddie platformer where the main substance is collecting crystals. 7/10… Expand

    It's fun at first, but the difficulty quickly shifts from "enjoyably challenging" to "I hate and want to dismember you." [Sept 2013, p.88]

    A bold and innovative reboot of a classic, but definitely geared for the hardcore. [June 2013, p76]
