68 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I do definitely appreciate the voice acting though, I think it's the original, or maybe from the TV show?
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
59 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The remake replaces pixel art with hand-painted 2D visuals that honor the original while elevating it.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
55 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The difficulty curve is fair but demands precision, rewarding skill and patience.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
53 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Each level—ranging from the Amazon to the Moon—offers a mix of platforming, exploration, and light puzzle-solving.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
42 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
But it seems that this game’s main draw is its storytelling and voice acting – several of the voice actors from the DuckTales TV show have returned to voice the characters, and the levels play out like an episode of the show with numerous cutscenes.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
16 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
But overall, the game runs 60 fps flat on my machine and it utilizes my XBOX One controller just fine.
