I get you, Gregor. Livin' like a bug ain't easy...
90s game design sensibilities + 20s presentation = absolute home run.
It's like Itoi never left!
Nerd shit shouldn't be allowed to have this much swag.
"Spiral Mountain go" isn't just a mantra, it's a lifestyle.
10/10 if the Genesis controller had one more face button?
Top-notch atmosphere, middling adventure. You WILL whistle Klaymen's theme.
Terrible binary morality system aside, an exciting, engaging, expressive romp.
Wario's most mechanical cohesive adventure, nonlinearity does him no favors.
