considering toree 3d is the product of a gamejam grind.. it shows, for better or for worse. the visuals are charming, the sound design is funny (i swear, that's the animal crossing cursor noise every time toree hops), and gameplay's serviceable. not really interesting, and you have to fight it occasionally, but serviceable. the gamejam's theme revolved around having the disc be haunted, and that shows, too, for better or for worse. i offer the former because it's genuinely interesting and even unnerving at times, leading to a few surprising moments, but i offer the latter as well because it doesn't really amount to any sort of payoff nor is it completely thought out--the unlockable bonus character sort of displays that last bit. and that's kind of a shame

still a cute experience. you could spend your dollar worse.
