    It’s like a G-rated version of Conker’s Bad Fur Day It takes the best of Donkey Kong, Mario, Sonic and Crash and puts them all together. B-game platformers and movie license games… things of an almost bygone era that I dearly miss. You know a game’s good when the grandma’s be playing it. How do you do, fellow kids?

    I beat New Super Lucky's Tale! 🏅 It's a fun and wholesome game, very colorful and with lots of cute characters, not only the named ones but also the animals that serve as stage and background decorations in the various worlds. 🐹 Not too difficult overall, but has its challenges. Recommended! ⭐

    This game is included with New Super Lucky's Tale, it is essentially the inferior version. I do not recommend playing it unless you want to see the differences between the two or you really just hate seeing an uncompleted game in your library.

    Information / Review English Super Lucky's Tale is a 3D platformer / jump and run developed by Playful Corp. Gameplay / Story After a long search, Lucky's sister Lyra has just found the Book of Ages, which can open gates into strange dimensions and even change the course of history. The joy hard but not long, because the evil Jinx with his nasty gang of cats is waiting for you and attacks Lyra. In the last second, Lucky pushes his sister aside, ends up in the book with the cats and thus…

    I wish Steam had an option between yes or no for reviews, because the game is cute and fun, but I would strongly recommend the remix/remaster of it over this version (New Super Lucky's Tale). That doesn't mean that this is a bad game at all, I just can't recommend it over the newest version since that one feels snappier, cleaner and better overall.

    This is not a bad game but New Super Lucky’s Tale is the remastered version of Super Lucky’s Tale which is definitely the version I’d recommend. One big downside to Super Lucky’s Tale is that you only have three limited camera angles which is extremely annoying. New Super Lucky’s Tale has the camera unlocked which is way more fun. Runs perfectly local on Steam Deck.

A cutesy, colorful, child-friendly, happy platformer, with a story straight out of those cutesy family adventure movies, and really solid platforming and fun exploration to boot. In Super Lucky's Tale, you play as this adorable little fox boy, the titular Lucky, trying to find his way back home after he got trapped in a magical book. The player character is adorable, constantly cheerful, and…

    This a very simple platform game, the controls are VERY floaty and slow, if they could buff the speed it would be more enjoyable, they don't go crazy on level design and the camera for the character kinda sucks, they thought the Mario 64 camera was "Good" and added to this game for some reason?? it's not one of those difficult games from the 90's-2000's like Crash and Spyro but it does the job, the game is pretty cute and the OST is pretty good. i recommend this game if you enjoy platform…

    It was okay, but heavily flawed. The list of updates on this remake sounds like it'll really improve all those factors. I'm really hopeful here. I hope it'll be a Super Lucky's Tale / New Super Lucky's Tale situation. That game was so much better upon the remake.

    I know that many people love this game and I can see why. It is charming and visually lovely. The reason why I can't recommend it though is that it is next to impossible to play if you are a disabled gamer. The fact that you get reset to the beginning of a section if you lose five "lives" means that any progress you do make is undone over and over again. I spent three days trying to get to one checkpoint and once I got there, I got reset. Imagine the frustration of that! I understand that…

    Decent platformer inspired by other popular platformers like Crash, Mario and such. Made by Xbox Game Studios, have some original ideas like digging into ground and hovering with tail (wait, I saw this one before somewhere...). Crystal candy visuals and good level design. For a platformer it's still a great choice. There's new a bit improved and alternated version but I haven't played it yet so can't tell much in this regard.

    The main issue with this game is A Hat in Time. A Hat in Time is so much more refined that this is at the verge of unbearable. It's so easy to move juuust too little or much forward and lose a life. It is rather rare to just lose health, since a failed jump usually means stright up losing a life. There's also the possibility to hit an enemy mid-air, which will cause damage. But since you are meant to bounce on the enemies, you'll now fall to your death since the damage have eaten all the…

    Short review. Super Lucky's Tale is a charming 3D platformer game with a lot of inspiration taken from various early 2000s 3D platformers and Super Mario 64. The flow of the game is smooth and the gameplay itself feels responsive and fun to play around with. The team behind Super Lucky's Tale did try to make the characters throughout the game somewhat interesting but they're all very bland and forgettable but that's to be expected when you're making a 3D platformer for a younger audience.…

    A tale of how to ruin your GPU by introducing no frame limiter, which results in 2000+ fps performance. An otherwise good platformer, but having to manually tweak graphical settings on driver level, to avoid fried hardware, instantly puts this game on my "do not recommend" list. This should have been patched long ago.

    This is probably one of the best 3D platformers, I have ever played!! Everything is so cute and fluffy, every character in the game as well, even the bosses. The jumping feels a bit clunky, but the rest is fine. The game is also easy, so its good for cozy gamers like me, plus there are some puzzles as well, but you do not have to solve them to complete the game. From 0 to 10 stars I would say 9/10 Really enjoyable game.

I could not "for the love of god" choose between both versions.
