    This one is going to be a sleeper hit, all eyes are on Spider-man and Demon Souls. Solid, fun experience. I find this game much more complete than it's LittleBigPlanet predecessors. Well thought out out and a great platformer, especially for couch co-op. Don't hesitate.

    Absolutely fantastic launch title for the PS5. As a long time fan of Littlebigplanet it's nice to see a departure from the main formula. The controls are responsive and less heavy compared to Littlebigplanet. We now have combat moves to freshen things up. The soundtrack is great, fits the overall mood and setting very well.

    I agree with most people when they say the game is a sleeper hit. It is a surprisingly good platformer and has a good amount of challenge to it. The final (ultimate) challenge in the game is a bit annoying. It strings together all of the previous smaller challenges into one big one, which seemed a bit uncreative.

It is a surprisingly good platformer and has a good amount of challenge to it. The final (ultimate) challenge in the game is a bit annoying. It strings together all of the previous smaller challenges into one big one, which seemed a bit uncreative. There are also no checkpoints through it, which demands near perfection just to complete it, let alone gold medaling it. I will admit, though, getting gold on it does leave you satisfied.
    My biggest complaint is definitely related to online play. A friend and I played the whole campaign at it was a total nightmare. Teleporting, glitching, random deaths, etc., were constant. Both of us have 60Mb internet and play together frequently. I do suspect, however, it may be due to crossplay (I was on PS5, they were on PS4). My other complaint has to do with the currency that you buy outfits and emotes with. After completing the game 100% (gold completion on every level, challenge and trial) and even going through most levels an extra time with my friend as host, I was far short of being able to purchase every one of these items. This leads to roughly 8+ hours of tedious farming, as there is no good way to build this currency after the game.
    In short... The game is generally fantastic and is truly fun to play, especially in single player. The issues the game has could easily be fixed with patches and if fixed, I could easily give the game an 8.5 or 9.

    (**SIDE NOTE... The game does not properly save the non host's high score, making you have to get the high score again**)

    PROS:
    -Lots of Little Big Planet charm
    -A general good balance of challenge
    -Licensed music themed levels are well engineered (audibly, visually and creatively)
    -Runs smooth and looks fantastic

    CONS:
    -Glitchy co-op play
    -Tedious currency accumulation at the end
    -High score does not transfer correctly when not hosting co-op
    -Disappointing final challenge    … Expand

    Super fun game. Played it entirely in co-op with a friend and the level designs are awesome. The highlights were the music levels. For competetive players there are time trials which added much value to the game for me since the regular levels are quite easy. Can really recommend this game to anyone who enjoys platformers or who is looking for (couch) co-op games.

    A big departure from the previous 3 little big planet games, for instance no level builder, but a fun platformer. Had a great time playing coop (up to 4 players) and the music levels were really cool, with some unexpected music. Check them out on you tube if your on the fence. Knitted knight trials was also pretty cool and unexpected. Overall significantly better than I thought it would be!

The focus was more on creating levels in those titles. Not to mention the controls were really stubborn and extremely floaty for fans of the platforming genre. Sackboy is a solid game with the vibe of the originals but in 3D this time around. The controls are way better and the game feels solid. Sony has a great platformer to sit even next to the likes of Nintendo titles dare I say. Well done Sumo digital. :)… Expand

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

It’s good wholesome gaming, that I really enjoyed. I think the problems arise when you actually start to challenge yourself and attempt to complete the levels without dying, whilst simultaneously collecting all of the orbs and prizes. Here, the levels can become really frustrating. That frustration lies with the way the movement is designed in the game - it’s not very precise at all, with sackboy rarely landing where you want him to land.
    I also found that sackboy would sometimes struggle clinging onto objects and would often bounce off of them, falling to his unfortunate death.
    With all that said, and besides it being a controller breaker at times, I had a lot of fun with sackboy and think it’s a great addition to the next gen line-up. Would highly recommend for when you want a break from other bleak games and are looking for some happy vibes.    … Expand

    This is what Yoshi's crafted world should have been. The game is gorgeous (at least on PS5). And the voice acting is great. Not a must have (it is quite boring in single player) but if you are looking for a platformer on PS5 is this still a great option. Just get a friend, it is way more fun in multiplayer.

    One of the better couch co-op experiences to come out in the last several years, but I think it's not particularly amazing for solo play. The co-op levels are some of the best designed in the entire game, and the antics of multiplayer make it significantly better than playing alone. Don't hesitate to grab it if you enjoy cooperative gaming, but it's maybe not a must-play for everyone

También son reseñables las funcionalidades del DualSense (aunque un paso por detrás de Astro's Playroom), el diseño artístico y las cargas rápidas. No es un videojuego sobresaliente, porque la historia es bastante "descafeinada", los primeros niveles son facilones y no sientes una verdadera innovación en la saga, pero Sumo Digital ha vuelto a lanzar un juego 100% disfrutón.… Expand

    This game is so fun and engaging especially for co-op. Which allows for up to 4 players. The gameplay, the soundtrack, the level design, the challenges, everything about this game is just top shelf. Highly recommended.

    The entire game feels like running through a swimming pool. Momentum is awful and controls feel laggy and unresponsive, which you'll definitely start to notice more on the occasions the game demands precision platforming from the player.

    Level and boss design are also extremely pedestrian, the game doesn't do enough with the good ideas it has and way too much with the bad ones (auto-scrollers have never been fun,) and don't even get me started on gatekeeping content behind multiplayer, that garbage was unacceptable when Dead Space 3 did it a decade ago and time has not sweetened the premise.

    In short, there is no reason to play this when much better options exist, but there are also worse games out there.    … Expand

    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

    Overshadowed by the fact Astrobot was amazing and free with the PS5, but a great 3D platformer and the addition of the music stages. That's what made it go from 8 to 9 for me

    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

If you want to 100% the game, you also need to play coop levels where you need a local friend who likes plattforming games or have to buy PSN, very unnecessary in my opinion.

    riuscire a far fare il salto al 3d da un platform che è sempre stato in 2d non è semplice, quindi dare questo progetto ad uno studio secondario che aveva già pubblicato un più che dimenticabile little big planet 3 non è stata forse l'idea vincente.
    in questo caso il gioco è riuscito, ma allo stesso tempo è pieno di tante piccole imperfezioni che non me lo fanno apprezzare completamente.    riuscire a far fare il salto al 3d da un platform che è sempre stato in 2d non è semplice, quindi dare questo progetto ad uno studio secondario che aveva già pubblicato un più che dimenticabile little big planet 3 non è stata forse l'idea vincente.
    in questo caso il gioco è riuscito, ma allo stesso tempo è pieno di tante piccole imperfezioni che non me lo fanno apprezzare completamente.
    in generale i livelli non sono male, non molto complessi ma pieni di segreti e di obbiettivi tipo completa il livello senza morire che fanno aumentare la sfida, per poi arrivare nella parte finale con un sostanziale aumento della difficoltà.
    il problema viene quando alcune hitbox dei nemici sono un po troppo grosse facendoti morire ingiustamente, o ancora peggio quando il protagonista non si aggrappa e rimbalza sulla struttura facendoti cadere inevitabilmente nel vuoto.
    anche il salto che non copre grandi distanze nei livelli dove bisogna saltare tra piattaforme mobili regalerà tante belle cadute.
    ma la cosa più insopportabile di tutto il gioco è la premiazione finale dopo aver finito un livello.
    inizieranno elencandoti i punti fatti
    poi ci sarà il momento foto, quindi mettiti in posa attendi diversi secondi, tutto finito? no ovviamente ora ti mostriamo per altri secondi la bellissima foro appena fatta.
    tutto finito? no ovviamente ricapitolo dei premi che abbiamo ottenuto nel livello, ed ora finalmente potremo ritornare nella mappa del mondo.
    però aspetta un secondo forse ti interessa sapere per la terza volta quanti collezionabili hai trovato nel livello.
    ma aspetta ancora un secondo hai trovato tutti i collezionabili, che bravo che sei stato ecco un bellissimo adesivo che ti verrà applicato sul tuo diario con tanto di animazioni lentissime.
    tutto questo porterà via poco più di 1 minuto nulla di grava se solo non ci fossero una novantina di livelli, e se solo il gioco non durasse poco più di 10 ore, risultano quindi essere il 10/15% del esperienza complessiva di tutto il gioco.
    fortunatamente il gioco non è solo questo, e tra simpatici livelli, e piacevoli prove a tempo che aggiungono fin da subito una buona sfida il titolo in generale risulta consigliato.
    anche se forse il titolo è stato più studiato per essere apprezzato di più in cooperativa.
    tra livelli opzionali che si possono giocare solo in coop, a livelli in singolo che palesemente hanno zone arene pensate per più giocatori, fino ad arrivare alle premiazioni finali , la sensazione che si ha è che sia proprio un titolo volutamente puntato sulla coop, ma che lo si può apprezzare anche da soli.

    In my opinion this is the worst game in the LBP/sackboy series due to the weird/inconsistent/broken camera angles and aspect ratios.

    I've had so many glitches with jump just not working, getting caught on invisible edges and falling off ground which I appear to be on.
    Some of the levels where the animations match the music go slightly out of sync and this makes the buttons feel laggy.
    Lots of the game feels slow and bloated - moving between levels, end screen taking photos etc.    … Expand

    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.
