    Sackboy: A Big Adventure es un juego de plataformas muy entretenido. Con un diseño de niveles bueno y variado, este juego te permite disfrutar de una de las experiencias más divertidas en PS5 por el momento.

Tanto su apartado artístico como el técnico son excelentes y la música es bastante buena (hay niveles musicales en el que avanzas al ritmo de la música, de mis niveles favoritos). La historia es muy simple y típica, pero no es importante en este tipo de juegos. Como puntos negativos están las físicas, para mi gusto un poco toscas (sobre todo si vienes de jugar a cualquier juego de Mario) pero aun así son aceptables; y la jugabilidad bastante menos notable del modo un jugador (en multijugador es mucho más divertido y dinámico, además de que hay niveles exclusivos en cooperativo). Juego bastante recomendable sobre todo si lo podéis jugar con algún amigo o familiar. 8,3/10

    What a wonderful surprise. I figured that “Sackboy: A Big Adventure” would eventually release on Playstation Plus and it did. I did not expect much. Wow. I have not seen a level design this creative since “Super Mario 3D” and visuals this visceral since “Tearaway: Unfolded”.

I figured that “Sackboy: A Big Adventure” would eventually release on Playstation Plus and it did. I did not expect much. Wow. I have not seen a level design this creative since “Super Mario 3D” and visuals this visceral since “Tearaway: Unfolded”.

    The design and animations are just a joy to see. In some ways, the game world reminds of those classic old cartoons where every objects is alive with movement. One level incorporates the beat from “Uptown Funk”. Maybe it’s the old man gamer in me. I’ve played platformers since the early days of the arcade. There is an enjoyment in the feeling of movement and mastery of timing. Sackboy has all that and lots of secrets to find.

    Sackboy himself jumps and moves well on command. Some platformers are just too strict with the timing of jumps, and overestimate not only the reaction time of the player, but also the limits of the players equipment. In a kind of “Dark Souls” lite, you can regain a life after you die by returning to the scene of crime. Difficulty may depend on your skill level. As a platforming veterans, I found myself steamrolling through the early levels with little problem. Some of the challenge is in finding the secret areas. “Super Mario 3” was fantastic about filling out the game map with nooks and crannies to explore. That tradition continues here. Somewhat reminiscent of “Sonic: The Hedghog”, Sackboy can find himself rolling about tubes that connect parts of levels. And finally, the pedigree of “Little Big Planet” is brought into a full 3D world. Just stellar through and through.

    I feel a little bad because I gave the PS5 exclusive “Ratchet and Clank: A Rift Apart” a 8/10. I said that a beat em up with guns like Ratchet and Clank can only be so good. So why can a platform be better? It’s because a platformer does not rely on spamming the trigger. A platformer makes you think and strategize and sometimes find the perfect path and other times resort to brute force. A great platformer can reach the highest of heights. Sackboy nearly gets there. The adventure is a bit limited by repetition, much how “Super Mario World” was a generational leap in graphics and gameplay yet still felt lesser compared to “Super Mario 3”. More is not always better.

    More costumes are better, and I give full credit to the developers for putting in the work. The little side challenges are also a nice touch. The game includes multiplayer though I doubt many of the folks on my friends list are interested in this adventure. Still, the option of multiplayer is a nice to have.

    All in all, I highly recommend this game. Sackboy may be one of the most overlooked gems this generation. I understand how people felt when the game launched. $70 for a platformer. The PS4 version means there is nothing special for PS5. None of that means anything to me. This is a tight game and you will enjoy it despite yourself.    … Expand

    Played with gf and it was very funny game. Gameplay is smooth and there is some challenge with some levels which is good. Story was okay. If you like good couch co-op games give this chance. It have pretty good graphics too.

    Story = 8.5
    Graphic = 9.5
    Gameplay = 10
    Sounds = 9.5

    This is must have for any platforming fans! It plays great; it looks great; it sounds great and it doesn’t have performance issues. The story is pretty awful and there is huge amount of multiplayer though, as I was hoping for strictly single player. Which it has about 50-50 ratio

    An absolute joy to play, and a bigger challenge than I expected, which is a plus. Tons of great skins to unlock, excellent level design, and some of the better visuals I've seen

    Really high-quality platformer. It's honestly pretty fantastic and has a ton of charm. It makes me desperately want another Little Big Planet, more than I already did, but this is a fine alternative.

    Perfect platformer. There is no other title that can compete with with Mario like Sackboy. A multitude of levels, great challenges and a ton of secrets that make it a must buy, especially if you are looking for a fun couch co-op.

    This is a fantastic platformer with great co-op--both my 7 year old and I love this game. Its beautiful, charming, creative, and has a great variety in how levels look and play. The costume customization is a pleasant surprise.

    It's (so far) the best 3D platformer on PlayStation! This game has given me a lot of fun, thanks to its satisfying gameplay, its decent graphics and a not very deep story, but fun (don't laugh, but at times, Vex scared me a bit XD). Seriously, if you want a 3D platformer for PlayStation, I recommend this game

    Sackboy est un bel hommage aux jeux de plateformes qu'on aime tant.
    Il ne révolutionne rien, ou presque, mais sincèrement ça faisait longtemps que je n'étais pas autant amusé sur un jeu de plateformes.
    Jouable jusqu'à 4 en coop, le jeu est extrêmement beau, avec une bande son réussie et certains morceaux qui vous feront danser. Les niveaux ne sont ni trop longs, ni trop courts. Les    Sackboy est un bel hommage aux jeux de plateformes qu'on aime tant.

    Sackboy: A Big Adventure successfully captures the essence of the LittleBigPlanet series and is a blast to play, particularly in co-op. The levels are plentiful, imaginative and are paired with a great soundtrack. It's a must-play for fans of the platforming genre.

    Story is not important in this genre but, I prefer a better one. it has very good music although i think they could choose better. It's a very good platformer which you can play with your family and I strongly suggest you to play it specially if you liked Little Big Planet series.

    Sackboy is not groundbreaking in any way, but it doesn’t need to be. It’s a wonderful platformer that looks great, sounds excellent, and offers superb co-op. It is pure, varied fun and deserves much more recognition than it received overshadowed by Spider-Man: Miles Morales and some other big releases. [01/2021, p.38]

    Sackboy A Big Adventure goes out if its way to be a Nintendo-like platformer, and almost gets it right if not for a few small but costly mistakes. It's still a very good game, but could have even been better if the developers focused more on their own ideas.
