Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion Review (Inno)
Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion is an enjoyable, but also very silly top-down action-adventure game.
You play as Turnip Boy, a mischievous little Turnip who lives in Veggieville. The story unfolds as you receive an outrageous tax bill for your greenhouse from Mayor Onion. In an act of rebellion, you tear up the paper, leading to accusations of tax evasion. To settle your debts, you are forced to become the mayor's assistant and embark on a journey filled with hilarious and bizarre errands and discoveries that delve into this vegetable world's history. By completing side quests for villagers, you gradually unravel the corrupt government's workings in a world filled with whimsical fruits and vegetables.
The game captivates with its humor and satire, never taking itself too seriously and offering a laugh-out-loud experience. Witty dialogue and amusing interactions between the characters add depth to the narrative, transforming tax evasion and vegetable-based puns into entertaining elements. The cute and colorful cartoony pixel graphics, combined with a catchy soundtrack, create a charming and engaging atmosphere.
Your journey will take you through areas filled with puzzles, enemies, and treasure, all while evading taxes and tearing up more government documents. The controls are intuitive and user-friendly. Puzzles are lighthearted and solvable. Combat mechanics remain fair and approachable, with each boss fight demanding a unique strategy. You'll find various tools and weapons along the way, adding variety to the gameplay and allowing you to tackle challenges in different ways. Additionally, discovering a wide range of collectible hats offers the chance to change Turnip Boy's appearance throughout the adventure.
