    A Hole New World combines the movement mechanics of two worlds that are as different as enjoyable, all justified by its plot. Even though, we can’t consider it as a great example of the genre due to its simplicity, where exploration becomes secondary.

    Despite the difficulty spike at the end, I really enjoyed playing through A Hole New World. The game scratched a very specific itch for me, and despite its problems, it ended up giving me a far better experience than revisiting the fascinating, clunky horror games of my childhood would have. Let’s hope the planned fixes elevate the game even more.

The ''upside down'' mechanic is nice and you sometimes have no choice but to pass there, but not always which I like. The enemies' difficulty is average in general, but two of the boss fights were very hard (almost quit on the final one / took me like 45 minutes). The game is very short considering I spent about an hour just for 2 different bosses. The rest of the game is ok, but nothing innovative. I like the ''different colors'' needed to beat the final boss. The controls are tight. I think it is a strong effort, but not worth the asking price. I would recommend to wait for a sale. I had some fun and it deserves a 6.5 out of 10 in my book.… Full Review »
