New Review Posted: Tak 2: Staff of Dreams

Mike Bracken reviews Tak 2: STaff of dreams, although he almost didn't:

"When Tak 2: The Staff of Dreams showed up on my doorstep recently, I gave the game a quick once-over. Platformer…funny-looking characters, graphics on the screenshots on the back look decent…wait…what's this? A Nickelodeon logo?

Seeing that little orange splotch almost immediately killed any interest I had in the title. I know—you can't judge a book by its cover—but a Nickelodeon logo assured me that I was about to play a kid's game—one no doubt dumbed-down for a younger audience. Oh well, I thought to myself—at least I should be able to breeze through it in short order.

I was wrong on so many levels."

Stepping back and re-examining the surroundings will almost always reveal the proper path to take. Personally, anyone who whines about this game being too tough is doing just that: whining.
Damnit Mike, now there's another game I have to get!

Oh, and I love the above quote.

And I also love the juxtaposition of your menacing mug being pictured next to a paragraph with numerous mentions of Nickelodeon.
