    Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo is an incredibly fun game that’ll have you exploring every nook and cranny. Not because an achievement or completionist rating that tells you to do so, but because you will want to.

    Many indie titles have a formal understanding of retro pixel-bit graphics, chiptune soundtracks, and Metroidvania design, but few of them successfully build a nuanced and complete template around said formula. Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo is one of those rare occasions. For whatever design quibbles may lightly diminish the end result, Pocket Trap has nevertheless crafted one of this year’s best games.
