Keep in mind that this game is almost 27 years old so there are flaws but I liked it. This game offers a challenge for those who wants a full completition and suits casual gamers who just wants to roll into the old platformer genre. Some levels felt completely unecessary and because they had no checkpoints it was frustrating but it's pretty easy to 100% complete it. That tok me 4-5 hours. Bad camera angles but a good variety in gameplay. Boss fights felt like they were added into the game after it was done just to sort of complement the other levels. I've never been more baffled how easy it was but at the same time a bit confusing xd Nostalgic, classic & cheap, so go ahead and play it if you like Platformer games like myself :)

A cute, fun platformer that mimics Crash Bandicoot's gameplay in a way few other games have. Kao himself is such a great mascot, and the game has a big amount of charm to it. There are downsides, such as the tank controls, as well as the vehicle and maze levels. I'm glad I played Kao and may eventually play it again, but the frustrating points do bring it down a tad.

Old school game. Reminds me of Raymon? for some reason. Not my type of game. The nostalgia was too much for me.

Kao the Kangaroo (2000 re-release) Genre: 3D Platformer / Jump 'n' Run Perspective: 3rd Person My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐🔹 💙Summary (TLDR): This game is a cute little treat within the 3D platformer genre that I reommend giving a try! I grew up with Crash Bandicoot & Spyro the Dragon absolutely loving those two games so finding similar games is always a treat for me. Kao imo isn't on the same level as those two classics but I enjoyed the game for what it is, it's an old gem and brought my platformer-heart a lot of joy! The Positives [*]The levels were fun, especially since there was a bit of everything ranging from Jungles, Icy Areas, Tropical Isles and even Space. A nice variety, it never got boring! [*]It had vehicle levels but actually... it was an enjoyable experience which was a nice surprise since normally devs can't manage to make vehicle-scenarios not dreadful [*]I like that I can go back into the levels to collect the leftover collectibles and that you aren't stressed for missing a coin on a slide; just go back and replay it, it saves everything already collected [*]It was an amazing experience on my Steamdeck! I found myself rather playing this on my Deck than on my PC! It runs very smoothly on it! The “Not So Goods” [*]You have to keep in mind this game is a classic platformer that is 26yrs old and it shows. The controls and camera are a piece of work sometimes but that is just a relic of this game's time. However the Steam-Layout for games that don't officially support controllers worked like a charm here, the one I made for myself made the game so much fun on both the Steamdeck and with a Xbox-Controller so that outdated control scheme problem can be entirely nullified!
