If you want to watch the full review on the Cheapness Review Youtube channel: https://youtu.be/p7dsKa3lCDg Quick text review: Want to take part in the death circus where bees and missiles can kill you? - Nice visuals, if there is not much variety (Like three backgrounds of the different big-top arenas and a few platform structures - all with the same look), with a drained colour palette (Kind of depression-like) -Good, spooky, mischievous "carnival of death" music - Tight, simple, fun platforming requiring you to collect items while dodging traps (No enemies) on the same wrapping screen (That's it) where you die often and a successful level attempt is quick -Has a campaign and arcade mode to deliver a short experience (Short enough to have the toughness not become too frustrating) - Same screen versus and co-op modes Practical concerns: - OK value for money for me (R4.09 / $0.38/ £0.27 per hour of gameplay) - Very small download size (Takes up 125.66 Mb on the harddrive) -Easy to run -Mostly kid friendly (If your character does blow up on death)
