Turnip Boy Robs a Bank Review (Struggler)
So, I actually refunded this game. Let me explain before you sick the Pickle Gang on me. I already thought going in I might not like this one because of the drastic departure from the first, but I wanted to give it a chance. First five minutes of battle and I knew I was screwed lol. I *loved* the first. It was fast enough to keep my interest but slow enough for my old arse to keep up.
Overall, I loved the slow pace of the first while having a so-so level of difficulty. But I am horrible at bullet-hell games, and I really don't enjoy them. But this dev team is doing something different with an IP that they're clearly passionate about. That, and the character and writing of Turnip Boy, deserves a thumbs up.
If you enjoyed the first and want more of what the train at the end of that game gave you, this is it. If you want more slower paced, Zelda-esque exploration, maybe cheer them on from afar this time. Maybe they'll do another adventure one for us old timers down the line.
Great artwork, music, and concept. Just not for my tired hands and slow reflexes.
