    Toki Tori on the Nintendo Switch is an excellent puzzle game. The difficult progresses naturally, the puzzles themselves will make you think about solutions other than what seem obvious, and the wild card and rewind functions are great for newcomers and veterans alike. If you have five dollars to spare, definitely give Toki Tori a shot.

    This is a back-to-basics, side-scrolling puzzle effort that will draw people in with its addictive gameplay and cleverly-crafted stages, and then test even the most hardcore with its extra challenges later on. The balance is perfect, and gets the old grey matter working hard throughout, proving to be extremely inventive and charming, in equal measure. Toki Tori deserves to shine, and hopefully on Nintendo Switch it will now get the attention it deserves.

    Toki Tori is an amazing platform game that everyone will enjoy, regardless of their age. It’s lovely to play and to solve all the puzzles, some simpler and others quite complicated.

    Toki Tori is a fun, engaging puzzler that is sure to enthuse anyone who is a fan of the genre. It can be tough at times, but it’s the good kind of tough, a challenge that feels rewarding once you complete it. It also requires perfection in some levels, which can be a bit frustrating, but no level is ever too tough and there are ways to help alleviate frustration. With its clever puzzles and fun aesthetic, Toki Tori is definitely worth the challenge.

    Ultimately, Toki Tori is a very simple game. But simple is not a bad thing here. The game has a clear vision of what it wants to accomplish and delivers a fun, challenging, and often rewarding puzzle/platformer experience. If you enjoy these kind of games but hate their cuteness, don't let the graphics fool you. Toki Tori can be a mind stumper, but always a fun time.

    Toki Tori is a charming, fun, and pleasingly tricky puzzle game that will put your mind to the test in simple, but challenging levels. While the goal always seems almost too easy on the surface, the game’s deceptive nature actually forces players to come up with perfect solutions throughout – which is no easy task!

    Toki Tori is a great puzzle game in its own right, only shadowed by its improved sequel. But don’t let that put you off. If you enjoyed Toki Tori 2+ then don't think that you'll be playing with an inferior version of the same game - but instead a different twist on the same core principles.

    Toki Tori is a puzzle game that should please anyone who likes this genre. Despite of this version hadn't added anything new, it's an interesting game anyway.. Toki Tori is a good addition to the Switch library and can provide fun in small doses.

    Personalmente, este juego me ha decepcionado. Atraído por las buenas valoraciones de metacritic, me compré el juego en oferta y, para suPersonalmente, este juego me ha decepcionado. Atraído por las buenas valoraciones de metacritic, me compré el juego en oferta y, para su precio, es un juego bastante completo. Tiene un buen apartado técnico y artístico debido a sus pocos requisitos. Además, su música me ha sorprendido para bien. Para mí, el problema radica en su excesiva dificultad (y poco intuitiva) y, sobretodo, lo poco divertido que es resolver los niveles. Entre que tienes que mirar el tutorial de cómo tienes que resolver el nivel tras una hora de intentos y lo aburrido que se hace jugar acabas sin poder disfrutar del juego. Únicamente lo recomiendo a quienes les gusten los juegos de puzzles y también lo recomiendo por su reducido precio. 5,7/10
