Replay Ability 7/10: The only reason why you would want to replay this game, in my opinion, is because you haven't completed all the missions. The only way to kill them is to jump on top of them and then throw them at an object or on the ground. The, your weapons can't kill them outright, but you really wouldn't want to.

Then, to fight them, you need to get them in the bag but you'll find out. You need to get a bag of their ''element'' and then go to the place which will open the doors to them. There are also the bosses.all who are pigs. These missions add a nice touch and originality to this game. Once you've completed a mission, it'll say so and, chances are, you will gain an item. There are MANY missions in this game and to acquire them, you need to talk to certain people or go to certain places. You see, in this game, you're 's call them missions. Gameplay 10/10: You might think it's a game where you just go past the levels, killing enemies and fighting the boss to move on. However, that's a nice touch.even though it could get you killed. They're nice and responsive but when you're dashing, Tomba will skid a little before he stops if you let go of Square. You have Circle to attack, X to jump, Triangle to go to the menu screen, and Square to Animal Dash. Good Graphics!!!Ĭontrols 10/10: They're easy to get used to. Graphics 9/10: It's kind of blocky at times but otherwise, they're not half bad. Basically, everything in the game sounds good. The bridge creaks w hen you walk across it. General Sound 10/10: There's Tomba's shouts and there's even some voice acting but that's only for a little portion of the game. It really fits the cute and colorful settings, in my opinion. Music 10/10: There are some really catchy tunes in this game. Now, let me just say that you'll hardly ever see that pigs are the enemies in a game. Story 10/10: Tomba's grandpa has a golden bracelet but one day, some evil pigs (yes pigs) took it!! Now Tomba is out to get back the bracelet and get rid of the pigs. Well, either way, it's still a neat game. There are over 130 different events in all - some of which can be completed at random or in any fashion you'd like. Every time you collect an item that someone or something needs, it is referred to as an event. As you journey along, you will come across people who need something or a town that requires your help. He'll come across a wide variety of items along the way ranging from charity wings (teleportation to already visited places) to the 1,000 year-old key (opens 1,000 year-old treasure chests).īreaking the mold of the traditional platformer, Tomba! is more non-linear rather than it is a level-to-level game. Each weapon has a specific purpose and certain ones should be used at different times a grapple for high-up places and the boomerang for distance attacks. Among his weapons is the default blackjack (a spiked ball with a rope attached), a grapple and various boomerangs. Tomba also makes use of weapons and items.

Once all three experience meters reach level ten (in order to do this, Tomba must do certain things), he will unlock and learn an ability. He has seven abilities that can be learned throughout the duration of the game. Little do you know that the quest for your bracelet will turn into so much more.īecause of its role-playing elements, in Tomba!, your character will gain experience points, develop new skills and learn new things. You assume the role of Tomba and begin your adventure.

The game starts out simple enough with the evil Koma Pigs stealing Tomba's bracelet, which was given to him by his grandfather. Aside from sporting a wacky pink hairdo, Tomba! offers a long and brain twisting experience that mixes the traditional 2D side scrolling action/platformer with the elements of a role-playing game.
