    Teratopia on Xbox is a gross, poorly optimized, poorly designed, and disastrous product. I regularly have more fun with the mazes on the back of cereal boxes. Maybe if there were some kind of actual direction, it could have been a fun little 3D something. Instead, Teratopia is yet another example of a weird name being tied to a horrendous game.

    Teratopia has you rid the land of evil invaders and rescue your friends in this colorful 3D action brawler. Developed by Ravegan and publishedTeratopia has you rid the land of evil invaders and rescue your friends in this colorful 3D action brawler. Developed by Ravegan and published by EastAsiaSoft Limited. Teratopia is 3D action platformer based in the world of monsters. This bright colourful title has wacky graphics along with some punchy music vibes to it. The game feels like a mash-up of Spyro and Pikmin but aimed at a demographic I struggle to guess at. Honestly, I had no idea what to expect from this title. Is it a utopia for teras? A utopia made of teras? Is tera even a word? What I didn’t expect from the game’s title was that it would be the disgusting, irritating, and endlessly boring slog that it is. Oddly, Teratopia doesn’t provide players with the traditional visual signaling when navigating the world. As such, you might misjudge the distance of an elevated gap, leading to the death of your character. Occasionally, the game likes to dangle incentives on adjacent floating islands. A single misstep can lead to an instant game over, that’s punctuated by a taunting “Bye-Bye” message. Teratopia isn’t an excessively challenging game, but mistakes can feel overly punishing. In a few instances, characters aren’t able to make the raised jump back to the main level. In these cases, you’ll just have to kill Tucho, or his friends, Benito and Horacio. Much like the odd juxtaposition between upbeat music, and bloodletting by cartoonish character, Teratopia can feel muddled. Elect to tackle the six-to-eight hour trek and you’ll find fun amidst an array of minor frustrations. While it’s understandable that Ravegan desired to deviate from ‘90s action-platforming tradition Teratopia feels like it could have used player feedback during the early stages of design.… Full Review »
