The Touryst is a 3d blocky puzzle platformer that really doesn't have too much platforming.

The game is padded out a fair bit with what would normally be side quests, little mini games and fetch quests. Which is fine, though you're required to do a certain percentage to complete the see and see the credits.

But it's got a nice atmosphere and does have a very summery feel (which is nice given that I'm in wintery cold Melbourne).

Some of the mini games though are a pain, while others are a nice distraction.

The temples tend to be interesting, implementing different mechanics. Some of the temples require you to do platforming to platforms over inky black depths, which makes life a little too tricky as it's hard to get a sense of depth.

The games not punitive though, any death just restarts you from the start of the room, but it can be frustrating all the same.
