  • Summary: Step into the role of Vexx as he seeks vengeance on those who murdered his grandfather and enslaved his people. Equipped with a set of razor-sharp war talons, you'll travel through volcanic islands, desert temples, frozen citadels, and giants' castles to confront the evil Dark Yabu, Shadowraith, and their minions. As darkness falls, enemies become more aggressive and the environments become more hostile. It will take all your combat skills and climbing moves to bring peace back to the villagers of Rockhaven.

  1. Crafted by hard-core gamers - its strong point in terms of sheer satisfaction - and it shows. [Mar 2003, p.56]
  2. It is a shame that a little more time didn't go into trying to make the game unique.
  3. Whether or not you'll enjoy the experience will depend on your patience level with the game's control and camera.
  4. Does little to break the classic platform mould but those of you who enjoy these types of games should find enough in it to provide some enjoyment.

    Why all this "just the same as any other platfomer" That genre has been around so long there's not much room left for inovation. The bottom line is: If you like platformers this is a very good, well polished example. Expand

    It could have been a great game but: 1) it's frustrating (too much to repeat if you fail) and 2) the camera is an enemy too often (why don't developers work more on this?!?) Expand
