What players say

Players deeply nostalgic for the original Platypus from the early 2000s praise this remake's claymation art and extra content, which includes the full original 2004 game and community workshop levels. The campaign is short at five levels, and some find power-ups too brief and limited, making the game feel tedious on longer stages.
