Now available on Switch, one of Nintendo’s most underappreciated projects is getting the audience it deserves. Unfortunately, it too was doomed on the Wii U. Nintendo later expanded that idea into a full game, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker. They were wonderful little puzzle boxes in which players guided the waddling Toad through diorama-like levels to collect stars. When Nintendo released Super Mario 3D World on Wii U - you know, the console that barely anybody owned - the game maker included a handful of experimental levels starring perennial Mario sidekick Toad. Ni no Kuni 2 is better because it’s aimed at Western fans.Ni no Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom is a classic JRPG transported into the contemporary era.Ni no Kuni 2 is a solid contemporary JRPG that brings a lot of design ideas that I love into sharp, clear focus while staying entertaining and engaging throughout.”Īvailable on PlayStation 4 and Windows PC. Here’s Cameron Kunzelman’s take from our review: “There’s not a wasted breath or a plot point that doesn’t manage to pay off in a significant way. A fairytale storyline gives its motley band of heroes a playful pep that feels anachronistic, if not flagrantly in conflict with our times. Its colorful animation conceals a rich but not overly complicated kingdom-management system that gives the adventure a grand sense of scope. No, you needn’t have played the first Ni no Kuni to enjoy its sequel, a feverishly optimistic (and welcomingly naïve) Japanese role-playing game inspired, in part, by the works of Studio Ghibli.
