Color Pals is a single screen precision 2-D platformer where you control a little colored block. You can collect lightning bolts to change to a different color. But the trick here is that you can only touch blocks of your own color, otherwise you’ll die and have to start the level over again. Collect keys to open blocks and stars for points, too. Make it to the portal in the level to move onto the next. Color Pals is available on current consoles but reviewed on PS4 here.

Zool Redimensioned (PS4, Xbox One, PC)

Back in the 90s, 2-D mascot platformers were all the rage, thanks to Sonic. There were so many that I got downright tired of them and skipped out on quite a few. Also this was about the time I was really big into 16-bit RPGs like Final Fantasy and Chrono Trigger, so yeah. Anyway, one of these mascot platformers I missed out on was Zool. He was a ninja gremlin guy who tromped around 2-D levels based on themes like candy, tools, toys, music, and more. Zool was on pretty much all the consoles at the time, but hasn’t been heard from since. There’s a rumor that the infamously bad Wii game Ninjabread Man was originally going to be a 3-D Zool title, but I’m not 100 percent sure on that. Anyway, now Zool is back on some modern consoles and PC (reviewed on PS4 here) with all sorts of new modes and features.
