- I wanted to like BALAN WONDERWORLD, despite the general sentiment surrounding it. But the fact of the matter is, it does not live up to what we hoped it would be. If nothing else, the art and sound design are reminiscent of NiGHTS Into Dreams, which is a positive. But outside of that, it falls short everywhere else. Still a worthwhile experience if you get it at the right price and see what they were trying to go for.

Balan Wonderworld is an amazing, fun, and beautiful game. It took me back to the days I played Mario Galaxy as a kid, where you would just explore and try different things with the power-ups (even if it ended up with you dying) and then you would talk to your friends about it. The game rewards you for your experimentation with the different costumes and gives you a lot of freedom on how to tackle different scenarios, either with the costumes provided in each act or the ones you have obtained previously.
The character design, level design, and soundtrack are my favorite parts of the game. They all come together in a cohesive style that gives Balan Wonderworld a unique aesthetic inspired by theater, dreams, and each character's personality/likes; representing their aspirations and inner turmoils that you as the player have to help them overcome.
My only criticism is the frequency of the enemy respawns. It can be kind of tedious, specially if you are only coming back for a costume or a collectible.
Aside from that I seriously enjoyed every second of this game. If you like cute designs, banger music, and feel nostalgic about platformers from the early 2000s, please give Balan Wonderworld a try.
PS. Lance are you free on Friday night.
