The levels are surprisingly challenging

Raccoo Venture is a fun 3D platformer that captures the nostalgia from the '90s in a playful and puzzle-filled world. Defeat multiple enemies and challenges, find new outfits to customize your hero, discover new friends who will help you on your journey to recover the holy relics.

Discover your true destiny through a journey full of magic and secrets. Save Verta's Harmony and prevent chaos from returning to the land.

You'll need to keep an eye out for save points, which you must activate. Otherwise, if you perish, you'll be starting the game from the beginning... and that's no fun if you've managed to progress quite far and then died because of a silly mistake.

While it offers nothing in the way of originality, it's a run-of-the-mill open world 3D platform game that is instantly accessible. It's a fun, rewarding game for every member of the family to get behind.

The graphics are bright and bold, and the gameplay is straightforward

The graphics are bright and bold, and the gameplay is straightforward. The levels are surprisingly challenging, and it was refreshing to see that the developers don't hold your hand throughout the game. A lot of the solutions for puzzles and ways to access hidden areas, are left for you to discover on your own.

The combat is satisfying and the ability to find and change outfits adds another reason to explore every nook and cranny. There are also plenty of hidden items to unearth, making this a game with plenty of replayability.

At this price it's a steal. You really can't go wrong if you're a fan of open world 3D platformers.
