    Sydney Hunter and the Curse of the Mayan has great playability, keeping things challenging and allowing you to re-challenge main bosses. It’s just a few glitches that hinder the gameplay and subtract from the experience, yet it still remains extraordinarily fun.

    Retro-inspired 2D platformers simply don't get much better than Sydney Hunter so grab your whip and get ready for a great time.

It has elements that you maySydney Hunter and the Curse of the Mayan is a fun action platformer that harken back to the retro games. It has elements that you may recognize from the Mega Man series, Castlevania series, with some others mixed in. The music is catchy, and the level designs are solid. The game is challenging, yet fair, and the difficulty makes it even that much more rewarding to beat. The story is interesting with the Mayan backdrop, and you can tell that the team did their research on the Mayan mythology. I also really enjoyed the humour in the game. I definitely recommend Sydney Hunter and the Curse of the Mayan.… Full Review »
