\"\"<\/a>You are the hero Tim, out to save the princess, procure the legendary sword, and save the day in this retro inspired 2-D platformer adventure.\u00a0 But what makes this one different is that there are more than 100 different endings, some of them being very unexpected!\u00a0 Can you stumble upon and find all of them in Reventure?\u00a0 It\u2019s available to download on mobile, PC, and Switch, but reviewed on iPad here.<\/p>\n

Play control is pretty simple.\u00a0 The bottom of the screen has buttons you can touch to move left and right, jump, and an action button for using your sword, items, and opening treasure chests.\u00a0 The unique thing about this game is how many different endings there are!\u00a0 Many of which you\u2019ll probably just stumble upon.\u00a0 Some are pretty generic, like falling into pits or lava, while some are just silly.\u00a0 Such as tripping over a rock in front of your house, stabbing a minion too much and being called a bully, carrying too many items and breaking your legs under all the weight, and so much more.\u00a0 Sometimes when you reach an ending, you may get a costume or appearance change on your next run.\u00a0 Like being covered in bandages, turned into a zombie, and more.<\/p>\n

While I did like the retro-inspired graphics and gameplay, and some of the humor in the endings is funny, a lot of the game ends up being trial and error as you learn what to avoid to prevent a premature ending.\u00a0 And it\u2019s also tedious to have to start over every time.\u00a0 You can get items like a \u2018flute of time\u2019 that can start you back at other places besides your house, but even then, some endings negate that.\u00a0 It\u2019s just one of those \u2018just for laughs\u2019 kind of games that I doubt too many people will actually finish, or even play for very long.<\/p>\n

Kid Factor:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Reventure is rated T for Teen with ESRB descriptors of Blood, Language, Sexual Themes, and Violence.\u00a0 You can hit enemies with weapons and pixelated blood and other goo will ooze out from you and defeated enemies from time to time, but the simple graphics negate a lot of the violence.\u00a0 The other descriptors are in text only.\u00a0 Because of the reading involved, it\u2019s best for older gamers anyway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
