Reviews

My overall impression of The Adventures of Chris is very high. I love old-school platformers and there have been more of these popping up lately. They aren’t overly difficult or too easy to learn and play either. If you didn’t play games like this on Nintendo and Sega then you have no clue how hard games used to be compared to these. For $14.99 USD on Steam and Nintendo Switch, it is a bargain value for a good title. Have fun taking out giant spiders, bats, frogs, and other oversized creatures on your way to becoming the hero today.

It provides genuine humour, personality and variety in bucketloads, all while sending a few loving glances to the 16-bit era of videogames.

Overall, Adventures of Chris is a perfectly pleasant, charming and nostalgic trip for anyone who grew up in the 1990s. It plays well, it’s colorful and charming, and it has an amazing soundtrack.
