I want very much to recommend this game. The care the developers clearly have about the insect world is evident. The narration done in a documentary style is brilliant as well as educational. But the game does not allow to save during "regular" missions and this is a decision they have deliberately made. These missions can take a 1-2 hours. And some of them have a surprise ending. So you'll be two hours into a game, have a surprise beat you, and have to start over from scratch. It's just not worth the frustration.

I give this a thumbs down with legitimate sadness.

Great digital implementation of a great game. I just wish they'd make the other Clank! versions.

I would watch multiple seasons of this even if it wasn't a game. The voice acting was amazing. The story was very cool. The game play is fun. The characters were interesting. I can't wait for the next season.

Great great Zelda-like. Combat is good. The unlocked moves are good. The puzzles are very clever at times giving me a real sense of satisfaction when figuring them out. It was just the right length and just hard enough to please.

Great implementation of a great game.

Fun numbers-go-up game. Destroy things so you get money so you can buy upgrades allowing you to destroy more things. Repeat.

Fun numbers-go-up game. Destroy things, get money, buy things so you can destroy more things. Repeat.

Fun and deceptively hard puzzle game.

Crazy addictive and fun. But if you haven't heard of Balatro by now my review won't make a difference.

Downfall could've been its own paid game. Instead you get what is essentially a huge DLC for free. The amount of time and effort that went into this mod is astounding. Several new playable characters each with their own multi-faceted decks complete with art and animations and special interactions with enemies. New events, items, relics. And then having to design entirely new bosses based on the original game's playable characters and THEN a new boss battle system for this new bosses. It's really impressive what has been done here.
