The gameplay mechanics are also very similar, with its emphasis on platforming, combat and puzzles in a nice evenly balanced experience.

I would say it’s almost a spitting image of Rayman Legends, which makes sense as a number of people who worked on that game also worked on this one. I absolutely loved playing through Unruly Heroes, the game is visually one of the most beautiful 2D platform games I’ve ever seen. I was hyped for this game initially, but I was waiting for the PlayStation version to launch, so I haven’t seen or read anything about the game post-launch.ĭoes the game live up to the initial hype I had when looking at it, or is it yet another ‘meh’ experience encapsulated within a visual orgasm? Let’s find out… Initially launching for PC, Xbox One and the Nintendo Switch earlier this year, Magic Design Studios have finally released this amazing title for the PlayStation 4 along with a bunch of new content which will be deployed upon the other consoles at a later date. Today marks the release of Unruly Heroes, a game based upon this narrative set within a world that could have come directly out of a Disney blockbuster animated film. Two such adaptations always spring to mind, both Enslaved: Odyssey to the West – the 2010 game from Ninja Theory, and Monkey – the cult classic 70’s TV show which was famous for it’s hilariously bad English voice dub. Journey to the West is a classic Chinese story that has been retold and adapted in many cultures over the years.
