Only nostalgia seekers will find joy in this unforgiving, budget-friendly adventure inspired by the 2D Zelda games of yore.
A short but funny Game-Boy fashoned video game
Timothy and the Mysterious Forest is absolutely a case of style over substance. It definitely looks and sounds the part; the developer has gone to clear lengths to emulate the feel of a classic Game Boy game. The problem is that when attempting to emulate the difficulty of a retro adventure title, they’ve gone one step too far and made the game a chore...
A retro adventure that brings us back to the '90s. A good recreation of the past, but only a decent game.
