The Good
The graphics are very well on the PlayStation, especially for a game from 1997. Though the Saturn version does have more level detail and better sprites.
The controls work perfectly. No problems at all. Very tight and responsive.
This is an overhead action/adventure game. You play as one of two 8 year old who fights monsters and stuff like that to defeat the Swagman. But don't let the cute atmosphere fool you, this game has a lot of puzzle elements. Plus, it does get challenging near the end. The gameplay is just fun and addicting.
The Bad
This game sold terrible especially on the Saturn but the PS1 version wasn't exactly a hot seller either. No sequel was ever made and that is A SHAME.
The Bottom Line
This game is a fantastic platformer, pick it up RIGHT NOW. Every PlayStation or Saturn owner should get this game. Just... good luck finding a PAL Saturn version.
