Oct 15, 2024I'm definitely looking forward to whatever they make next which will hopefully be a bit more polished and much less derivative.

Oct 21, 2024Nikoderiko: The Magical World is a wonderfully satisfying platforming experience that borrows and expertly replicates the elements that made classic entries in the genre so beloved. Smart level design, enjoyable gameplay, lots of collectibles, and a killer soundtrack all come together to make this one an easy recommendation if you love DKC. That said, bear in mind that this one is also very light on original ideas, and that the Switch version struggles in some areas with its performance. If you can look past those flaws, we’d suggest you pick this one up, and even if such drawbacks do bother you, this is still worth scooping up on sale.

Nov 4, 2024Nikoderiko: The Magical World could be labeled as the son of Donkey Kong Country and Crash Bandicoot, but almost all the experience is based on the Nintendo IP. It’s great and it has the same level of quality, but we expected to see more unique ideas and concepts. Also, the Nintendo Switch version is not the ideal way ti play it.

Oct 21, 2024Nikoderiko does things you already know from other games. Only it does them in a worse way. You want a game like that? Play Crash. Play Donkey Kong Country. Play the new Astro Bot, even though it's a different kind of platform game. All of these games are much better and won't frustrate you with stupid bugs or even glitches. If anything stands out here, it's the graphics and the local co-op.
