The story of Tomba! is about pigs.evil pigs. It even is for today but of course shows it's flaws more now. The Good: Classic platforming gameplay, decent story, lots of places to go, lots of different things to killThe Bad: No sense of direction what-so-ever can make you lost easily, cheap deathsI remember Tomba! back when I was a kid. ![]() its a shame how much you have to pay for a copy of this fantastic game anymore, but its worth every penny. a classic in the strongest sense of the word. you can upgrade your health multiple times throughout the game, and you find new abilities and weapons very frequently.as crisp, detailed, and colorful as a 32-bit platformer could be, Tomba looks and plays great for its time, its pure fun. theres tons of lore and backstory behind the world you explore, but in many cases you need to discover that for yourself, by talking to various friendly characters in towns and other areas you learn about them and pick up a quest or two along the way, this is where the open ended adventure comes in, the entire game world is streamlined and fully explorable, with only a short load time between certain areas, and more areas become available are you finish the quests. Packed with 130 quests, you'll be busy for hours, and they arent all necessary to finish the main game, many side quests and activities to keep you busy long after finishing the main story line.Basically you play a wild cave-boy with pink hair, and you're trying to stop the evil pigs and their plot. its filled with dozens of unique areas to explore and creatures to deal with. What do you get when you get the best aspects of RPGs, Platformers, and adventure games? you get Tomba, an open ended masterpiece. :) And more if you're like me and you just can't get enough! ![]() Really.Fight evil pigs at the end of "levels" by catching them in bags (I say "levels" because you play in a sort of open world), meet all the elders that each give you something special, do cute and fun side-quests and the main quest to gain valuable items, go swimming, search a haunted mansion, meet dwarves, eat mushrooms that make you laugh or cry, explore secret areas that are full of things to do, and more.This game will guarantee you, I'd say, at least 30 hours of gameplay if you don't do the sidequests, and around 80 hours if you do. If you want a super fun game that's also, surprisingly, a pretty decent challenge, this is your game! It's one of my favorite games of all time, and I'm a HUGE gamer so that's saying something! The reason why it's a little bit more expensive (especially for a psx game) is not only because the company stopped making games altogether, and the also because the people that own Tomba! keep their copies indefinitely because it's that good of a game.
