    This just feels like a ripoff of Runner3, its almost exactly the same game but with bubsy.

    Это просто отвратительно . Уровни однотипные. Управление тупоголовое. Эта фишка из spidranner 2 просто заставляет нервничать. Короче это не бабси из SNES - это кусок дерьма. Я очень расстроен . Угрюмая. Однообразгая. Неудобная и тупоголовая игра.Это просто отвратительно . Уровни однотипные. Управление тупоголовое. Эта фишка из spidranner 2 просто заставляет нервничать.

    This bobcat needs to be put to sleep...PERMINATELY...the game was a running platformer where you cannot slow down...just jump or slide or fly. the characters are extremely annoying...I think that my ears was bleeding at one time...NOT WORTH THE MONEY!!!

    It's bloody Bubsy, enough said. Fine, I guess I'll say more.
    It's repetitive, keeps whatever you'd call Bubsy's personality,
    and it somehow is bloody inconsistent from the rest of the games
    it's like Meat Boy Forever but with Bubsy's franchise. and we know how that turned out with an actually decent platformer, so heaven pray Bubsy dies soon.

    Bubsy: Paws on Fire's biggest problem is its branding. The game is a perfectly fun and competent runner tied to a mascot who (as near as I can tell) only exists for irony value. The game is straitlaced about Bubsy, so it doesn't feel like a joke, but it also seems like the mascot does more to drive away people than to pique their interest. If you enjoyed the Runner3 style of gameplay, then you'll enjoy Bubsy: Paws on Fire. If you didn't, then the addition of a cartoon cat probably isn't going to change your mind. It's still the best Bubsy game to date, though.

    For being handed what I would consider a horribly tainted license, Choice Provisions did well combining their expertise with it to make something pretty good. I would still recommend their own Runner series before recommending Bubsy: Paws on Fire, but any fan of those titles looking for can’t go wrong with this game. Bubsy: Paws on Fire is hands down the best Bubsy game. Anyone with any nostalgia for this despicable bobcat should find enjoyment here, even if in only short bursts.

    It took a little over 25 years, but Bubsy: Paws on Fire is the bobcat’s first truly great outing. With a fun, cheeky cast of characters and entertaining core gameplay, you won’t have to ask yourself, “What could possibly go wrong?”
