@shadowgear's review of Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair
★★★★
This one was a treat as this one is reminiscent of 2-D side scrollers like Donkey Kong Country to where it even has it's own barrel level. The platforming was pretty soild and each of the games levels dose a good job preparing you for that final challenge of the lair itself. The overworld where you select your levels was also pretty neat in that not only did it have its own puzzles and challenges but the ability to change levels.Being a submerg a book in water or spill honey on it to open up new paths or even entire new levels was a cool idea and I enjoyed seeing all the new takes when it was changed up.If I had to criticize a few things, the auto scroll section in one of the final stages was way too long for it's own good and wail the PayWall gag was funny at first much like our main characters I was becoming annoyed near the end. I actually had to go back and collect a few of the coins I missed because of the ever increasing amount. I also wouldn't have minded a few boss fights outside the ones we have to do in the lair but despite that I don't really have anything bad to say about this. Go play it if you haven't.
