Like, A LOT! But trust me when I say that the game rewards the curious, not to mention the fact that the entire game is pretty compact and contained. Later in the game, you will unlock more specialised tools that you can use to overcome obstacles and puzzles that hold you back from discovering certain secrets earlier on in the game.Īs with all Metroidvania-esque titles, Journey to the Savage Planet requires you to backtrack a lot. You’ll even have to make use of the native planet’s many seeds some explode and spew out corrosive acid, while others create grappling hook points on certain plant pods.ĭefeating bosses are also puzzles in itself, either in the form of jumping, traversing, or figuring out where to shoot. Other times, you have to work that noggin to figure out how to crack open a loot box (in the form of a plant). Sometimes you have to figure out how to get to certain areas containing secrets. You’ll have a blast navigating and doing a ton of 3D platforming, with a bunch of failsafe methods of getting off the ground, landing perfectly onto whatever you’re aiming at, and grappling.įiguring out these secrets are treats in itself. Following a “Metroidvania in 3D system” where you need the right item(s) to get past an obstacle, you start to see the game’s progression and level design unfold in a genius manner. You’ll need to get to making tools because puzzles and blocked areas are in abundance. You can also bring another player into your adventures through the Co-Op mode, for double the exploration equalling to double the fun.
