A classic 16-bit platformer in modern clothing. This game has it all: a great soundtrack (bops), great level design, great character design, great visuals, a cheesy but fun story and to top it off additional campaigns which are particularly fun. Spectre of Torment has a particularly tragic but amazing story that surpasses the base game. Overall the presentation of this game is second to none, and a true nostalgic platformer that I would recommend to new and old players.

Even better than before. Zombies is my favourite part of Treyarch games and this is the best it has ever been. Not only is Shadows of Evil my favourite map but Zombies Chronicles brings back a bunch of favourites from BO1 and BO2. My only problem is that Gobblegum’s can feel like a helping hand but also a massive crutch.

I played this game during Covid and it was a breath of fresh air, so relaxing but also complex to keep you playing for hours. The developer (yes SINGLE DEVELOPER) continually adds big updates as well - marking the game feel constantly new. Also, the modded support will of the game is great as I played 5 player with my friends this year on ‘Stardew Valley: Expanded’ and it made me love the game even more - the game became a completion with my friends for who could make the most money in the shortest time. Overall, what I am trying to say is the game has constant new elements making it almost impossible to get bored of.
My only critique with the game is that the first Spring/Summer can feel a little boring or tedious when doing multiple subsequent farms while you build or your wealth. This isn’t a massive detriment but compounded with the fact that most of the brew content is typically late game like ‘Ginger Island’ or the beginning of the game like a ‘Beach Farm’ this can be annoying.
