I'm not sure if this is the best 2D platformer that I've played, but it is definitely in that conversation. The controls are near perfect. Everything is vibrant and fun to look at. I feel like they really nailed the sweet spot in terms of challenge. The levels have a good amount of variety to them, and there is a lot to play through between what's new to Legends and the remixed stages from Origins. And, of course, a special shoutout to the music levels, which are pure genius.

This was also the first video game that my son got into, so it will always have a special place with me.
