This ape is bananas!!!
Simple stylistic graphics. Fun gameplay with tight controls and easy to learn mechanics. High replayability. Would recommend.

Fun, but the schtick gets old fast.
Cute premise, fantastic art style. Love the music. But I did get kind of bored with it pretty quickly and never bothered to complete. Catch it on a sale.

a low-key masterpiece
It might be a little brief at the full price, but it goes on sale fairly often. If you find it on sale, treat yourself.

Excellent premise, great music
They say "it's all been done before," but that's not the case here. This is probably the best indie game in the Nintendo Switch library, and one of the most creative games in all of gaming. Yes, for real. The premise is so simple but it's executed perfectly. Had this game come out anywhere near the apex of the arcade era, it would be a staple in arcades and beercades across the world. It's about 30 years too late in that sense, but for anyone who loves arcade-style gaming, this is a must-buy. If there were physical copies of this game available, I'd buy several to gift to friends.
