Pony Island Review

Recommended

Great meta-humor adventure with simple arcade (jump and shoot sidescrolling) and puzzle gameplay elements.

* 40% jump and shoot gameplay
* 30% puzzle (mainly logic puzzles but also riddles)
* 20% dialogue
* Gameplay is more on the story side of things. The interactive gameplay supports the story more so than it being strong on its own.
+ Great meta-humor (on the topic of gaming, games as software, and programming)
+ Great graphic style (good effects, variance, execution, multi-layered mapping of story elements)
+ Good sound design and music
+ Good pacing, no overly difficult sections
- Non-skippable dialogue (may repeat parts after death)
