Review: Carly and the Reaperman is my kind of game. It is a platform adventure puzzle game that isn’t too hard to play but also offers a real challenge meaning you won’t be rushing through this games 10 hours of gameplay. Graphically, it isn’t going to blow anyone away due to its low-poly nature, but it still keeps you immersed thanks to its wonderful music and art style. Then throw in the 2 player mode that gives the game a little more replayability and you have yourself a game that easily justifies its own price tag. Sure, it’s nothing original, but it is one of those games that makes you happy that you brought it and in a genre, I wish there were a lot more games.
