Platformers are some of the oldest games around. They're rather simple, but they do have their own charm and challenge. What's more, you don't need to dedicate a quarter of your natural life to them as you would with hardcore RPGs or adventure games. That said, it can be a bit tricky to get a platformer right, because even if they do have rather simple elements, it's tricky to get these elements all working together nicely in a way that makes for a great game. Enter Bobo World, a fun little platformer that gets pretty much everything right.

With its cutesey appearance and silly little characters, you'd think that this was a simple kid's game. While the overall visual aesthetic may indeed be a bit on the childish side, no one ever said that necessarily had to be a bad thing, and as the game attests, it can make for some excellent gaming.

As aforementioned, the graphics are fairly cutesy. Your main character is some sort of alien blob that bounces around jumping onto things to kill them while collecting all sorts of different things along the way. Your enemies look like strange vegetable creatures a few natural selections and flasks of mutagen down the road. Doesn't mean it's bad though, actually those graphics make the game really come alive with a freshness and vibrancy that you don't see very often with today's low-saturated "retro" games. It's a refreshing change, and it works wonders. What's more, just about everywhere you look, there's more to see as the detail goes on and on.

Add to that the charming sound effects and music, and you've got some really great gaming ambiance going on. It can be a bit misleading though, as the easy-going sounds mask a game that can actually be fairly difficult as the game goes on.

The controls are fairly simple, you tap one button to jump (twice to do the inexplicable platformer double-jump) and another two buttons to move left and right. Doesn't get much simpler than that. Despite that though, it can take some practice to master movement, as just the slightest misstep (or mis-jump, as the case may be) will spell doom for your fragile little player character.

As aforementioned, the game is fairly easy to get into. It does take some work to master though, as your character is, in keeping with fine platformer tradition, of the variety of hero that will die horribly after being even lightly tapped by a bad guy. This makes it tricky, as you need to jump on top of enemies to kill them, but if you mess up just a tiny bit and land right beside them instead, you can kiss that life goodbye. Of course, this just adds to the fun-factor, as games are more fun the more challenging they get, a lesson many a child learned after hours of NES-induced rage and frustration.

And that wraps it up for this little game review. If you're in the mood to get your hands on some excellent platforming action, then go on and grab yourself a free download of Bobo World!
