Explore a forest island, learn magical songs and interact with the local wildlife to solve environmental puzzles. Toki Tori 2+’s game design requires just two moves: whistle and stomp. It's super accessible, yet it builds up to incredible complexity later on. There’s a ton to do, too. After puzzle-solving your way to five Ancient Frogs and saving the island from a strange pollution, you can still find 100s of golden wings, snap dozens of creature pictures and go Achievement hunting. You can now create checkpoints wherever you like, allowing for easy experimentation.

    - A unique take on the Metroidvania formula
    - Follow the path, or stray off-road and tackle the expert puzzles
    - Whistle magical songs to rewind, fast-travel and more

    I should have never slept on Toki Tori 2 when it first came out, and if you've been interested on it, but never had the drive to grab it, let this review be the thing that pushes you. The improvements and extra things brought to the Switch version make it the most complete and enjoyable way to play it (though the game is also available on PC and PS4). Any puzzle fan's library would be greatly improved with the addition of this game!

    Toki Tori 2+: Nintendo Switch Edition is the ultimate version of the second chapter of the series. Thanks to its beautiful art style and soundtrack, extended lifespan, overall gameplay improvements and fine-tuned difficulty progression, there is very little standing in the way between the player and the many good, fun, involving hours around this game. Truly a very recommended title for any Nintendo Switch owner.

    Toki Tori 2 is a perfect little game for playing over time not only because of the format, but because it’s practically impossible to forget how it plays and how Toki Tori moves.

    It’s wonderful to see a development team refuse to give up on a title so many years after launch. We wholeheartedly recommend that you head to the eShop and give Toki Tori 2+ a download.

    Toki Tori 2+ on Switch is still the same, cute and cuddly, yet fiendishly tricky game that we’ve been enjoying for the last few years, but with some notable improvements that make it the best version currently available on consoles. The difficulty of some puzzles may still be too much for some, but the levels of frustration that plagued earlier releases have been somewhat nullified thanks to new mechanics. If you’re interested in what the title has to offer, or have only played it in its earliest forms, we urge you to give this version a try.

    It’s a puzzle platformer with the core mechanic being that you can’t jump. Through it’s unashamed cute demeanour there is a deep, challenging game that is sometimes frustrating yet overall satisfying and hugely enjoyable.

    Taken at face value, Toki Tori 2+ is an incredibly well-designed platformer with a distinct Metroidvania vibe. However, it is let down by its visuals and sometimes frustratingly slow progression and backtracking due to certain puzzle sections.

    I've literally just created an account here so that I could give praise to this beautiful game. I honestly didn't know much about the seriesI've literally just created an account here so that I could give praise to this beautiful game. I honestly didn't know much about the series before, just kept seeing it on the eShop until I decided to give the original a try. Loved it already, and then read some praise about the second part so I went and bought it too. Now it's become one of my favourite games on the Switch.

    The levels and puzzles are so well crafted and expertly designed that they make you feel so clever after solving them, especially the most difficult ones. It's the best sense of achievement you can get when playing a puzzle game, and this game delivers so many of those moments. Add in beautiful, vibrant graphics and a great atmospheric soundtrack, with really interesting compositions and melodies that never feels repetitive, and you have one of the best games you can get for the Switch. It's such a feel-good experience. Seriously, get it - you won't regret it!    … Expand

Fast forward a few months later, I pick it up on sale and was started somewhere in the middle of the game. I went back and forth frustratingly stuck for my first hour with the game before I realized what happened and figured out how to restart. So I was pretty soured on the game from the start. So realize my review will be colored by that experience.
    Eventually, when I got into it more and learned how to get past the area I had started in. I relaxed and really started enjoying it. It is definitely a clever take n the metroidvania. You don't get powerups or keys, you just need to learn new ways to use what you already have.
    Unfortunately, some of the puzzles are long and take multiple steps and you may need to redo a lot if you accidently hit the wrong check point. That plus a couple of glitches and the aforementioned rough start stopped me from enjoying the game as much as I could have. Also, I never new what the point was other than getting to another area so there's less investment. And as far as I can tell, there's no end credits so you don't even get that satisfaction of closure once your done.
    Still, it is in some ways quite brilliant and I would be cautiously optimistic to play a new installment should it be made.    … Expand
