    Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back may not be perfect, but it’s easily the best Bubsy game ever made.

    There really isn’t much to say about this new Bubsy that can persuade the haters out there. It’s a simple, underwhelming platformer with a goofy plot and mediocre challenge. Many of the problems that plagued the past Bubsy games have been fixed or completely removed, at least making this new game playable, but that’s the only new thing really presented here. It’s fun in small doses, but gets boring with longer play sessions. I’m still puzzled as to why anyone thought Bubsy needed to make a comeback as no one really missed him. It’s not as bad as I originally thought it would be, but it’s nothing new at the same time. Give it a try if your curious, you might like it. Just be thankful they didn’t try to remake Bubsy 3D.

    Bubsy as a character has very little to offer and the gameplay – despite looking nice – is repetitive.

    The poor value proposition aside, The Woolies Strike Back simply doesn’t offer up reasons to go back to the game after you complete it.

    Nobody expected the latest Bubsy game to be any good and I’m sorry to say that those expectations were completely correct. Stay far away from it. Go play Mario or something instead.

    In a game that can be finished in under an hour, Bubsy doesn’t so much as strike back, but rather say a few harsh words before getting pummeled into the ground.

    Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back is about as good as a Bubsy game can be. Unfortunately for this sloppy, cheap and noisy platformer, that's an unfathomably low bar to clear.

If you want character arcs, look no further. The character development of Bubsy rivals any anime and the graphics are better than Jesus. Over all it's worth it alone for the storyline topped with amazing hyper realistic graphics.… Expand

It beautifully crafts a deep narative to rival the Kingdom Hearts franchise with an orchestral soundtrack that brought tears to my eyes as I listened in awe. It’s presentation can only be embraced with a Ps4 pro, in which it’s 144p resolution can run at 3 frames per second instead of the usual -2. In the future, I hope they make minecraft skin packs for this game aswel as furry costumes XD. Overall this is the reincarnation of lord himself and is a punishment for the sins of my father, Rest in Peace Suzy.

    10/5- A solid entry into the Roblox franchise, thank you Bethesda for this great game.    … Expand

    For his price the game is incredibly short, even shorter than its predecessors (not counting Bubsy 3D).
    The soundtrack is okay at best but isn't memorable at all. There is not much of a challenge except on (some of) the bosses. The level desing is mediocre et the gameplay is, I think, the only good point in the game, although it's a bit repetitive.    … Expand
