    A good port for Nintendo Switch, that keeps all the good things the original release had. Crash Bandicoot 4 is a must-have for users that enjoy playing platformer games. [Recommended]

    this is definitely one of the best crash games in terms of level design and gameplay, but they definitely went too far with the collectiblesthis is definitely one of the best crash games in terms of level design and gameplay, but they definitely went too far with the collectibles in this one. 100% completion is nearly impossible. a casual playthrough is still great though… Full Review »

    This is a fantastic sequel. Many games who don't have new entries in decades return and flop entirely but it is everything crash use to haveThis is a fantastic sequel. Many games who don't have new entries in decades return and flop entirely but it is everything crash use to have and then some. I will admit I am not good at this at all, in fact I would not recommend this as hardly to those who aren't already massive fans or want a challenge. It's not impossible, in fact its very doable, it just will require you to try and try again.

    This review is for the switch version, played exclusively in handheld. Performance was not generally an issue. I would've loved 60FPS or more, and higher visual fidelity. There were certainly times when I died because the platforming was hindered by graphics. I suspect this is not an issue on other platforms and others may not have experienced it as much as I have.

    There is plenty of replayability in the game. There are side levels on top of bonus levels that let you play as a different character with a different tool set, as well as mirror mode levels. There are plenty of unlockable cosmetics but good lord the grind required to unlock them is rough. It requires you to entirely master a level in order to unlock it.

    The story was nothing incredible, and the humor wasn't awful, in fact I rather enjoyed it most of the time but there wasn't a whole lot which I honestly would've preferred more of. I'm sure others maybe wouldn't but the cutscenes were fantastically animated and voiced.

    I'd recommend this to anyone who is a grown adult and can take frustration and no one else. Your kids gonna hate this game.    … Full Review »
