The Giana Sisters are back with an Directowl's Cut of their Twisted Dreams adventure. The game is good for more than 20 hours of entertainment. The game plays fluidly and the worlds are original, but there are some small flaws. Still, the game rocks.

It may be a bit challenging for some, but it's fair if you're willing to invest some effort, resulting in a surprisingly strong platforming experience.

Ein fast perfektes Jump n Run, welches andere bekannte Vertreter durch sein einzigartiges und verschachteltes Gameplay abhängt. Das Spiel ist gut entwickelt; trotz seines Alters und des Remasters gibt es auf der Playstation Sound-Probleme in einigen bestimmten Levels. Diese sollten noch behoben werden. Daher einen halben Punkt Abzug. Einen weiteren halben Punkt Abzug gibt es für die schlecht gewählten Trophäen-Aufgaben.
Hier fehlt mir eine Trophäe für das Finden aller Master Gems in einem der Schwierigkeitsgraden und eine für das Finden aller kleinen Gems.
Denn das ist genau das, was einen motiviert. Nintendo und die Entwickler von Yooka Laylee:
So geht Spieleentwicklung. Was mir aufgefallen ist: Jüngere Genre-Vertreter haben sich an ein paar Gameplay-Mechaniken bedient.

Feel-good platforming with a nice twist to it and an excellent OST that combines cute synths and heavy guitar riffs.

It‘s the best episode from this series. Changing between both sisters is done perfectly and makes such a lot of fun.

While this is essentially a re-release of the older game, it's really nice having 60 fps across the board. Combined with the boss levels now having their own levels (YES!), makes this really worth it. Only "bad" thing is that the game is really hard, but that's nothing a bit of skill and patience won't fix. If you really get stuck you can always skip on to the next world.

Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams surprised me. It’s a mechanically sound platformer that, considering the origins of the franchise, has managed to differentiate itself in a pretty big way. Simply put Giana Sisters now feels like one of the most unique platformers on the market.

Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams is an amazingly looking platformer with an awesome and unique soundtrack. It can be a little frustrating at times the fact that you need to play the whole level and pick all the gems all over again instead of only the ones that you missed on the previous try. The gameplay is solid and it's definitely a fun and addictive game and I would highly recommend it to anyone that enjoys this genre and isn't afraid of a little challenge.

This is a merge of the previous two recent Giana Sisters titles - Twisted Dreams, and Rise of the Owlverlord. It has all the smooth platformer goodness of its parents, plus a lot of usability upgrades to make for a more comfortable play experience. I particularly liked that they now have all the worlds broken out and separated, so even if you get stuck on one level, you can skip over and try another world elsewhere. This game really harkens back to good parts of the old Sonic titles, but is full of modern polish and quality. Give it a run.
