Overall, a great start for the PS5 era and a perfect example of a game that doesn’t have to be in-your-face to still dazzle.
Sackboy: A Big Adventure is an unexpected pleasure. Overshadowed by the likes of Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Demon’s Souls in Sony’s launch line-up, it’s gone far beyond our expectations – to play it is to love it. An immaculately made 3D platformer with huge amounts of charm, if you’re after something that will never fail to put a smile on your face you ought to consider picking it up alongside your PS5. With its cutesy looks, responsive controls and oodles of imagination, Sackboy: A Big Adventure goes further than ever to make Sackboy the PlayStation mascot he deserves to be.

One of the best cooperative games available! The levels are colorful and inventive! I hope we get a sequel.

Sackboy A Big Adventure goes out if its way to be a Nintendo-like platformer, and almost gets it right if not for a few small but costly mistakes. It's still a very good game, but could have even been better if the developers focused more on their own ideas.
Sackboy: A Big Adventure is dripping with charm and makes excellent use of the DualSense controller.
Sackboy is a fun adventure for everyone, easy to play and difficult to master, and it also works as a demonstration of some Dualsense capabilities, but we miss the creative side of Little Big Planet and more unique mechanics (such as the musical levels).
Despite being a game with consistent quality and performance, Sackboy: A Big Adventure can’t quite escape being run-of-the-mill when compared to its contemporaries. There is still plenty of that LittleBigPlanet charm to be found throughout this lengthy, platforming campaign though. It’s gorgeous to look at, it’s well-designed and the game feel is just right. However, if you are looking for some of that next-gen innovation on par with Astro’s latest, then you may struggle to find it here.
Sackboy: A Big Adventure is a beautiful yet very classic platformer. Sumo Digital delivers a decent game mostly made for children : with a repetitive gameplay and a lack of real challenge, it still offers to a younger audience an unharmful and colorful adventure. Too bad the DualSense wasn't used more on PS5.

riuscire a far fare il salto al 3d da un platform che è sempre stato in 2d non è semplice, quindi dare questo progetto ad uno studio secondario che aveva già pubblicato un più che dimenticabile little big planet 3 non è stata forse l'idea vincente.
in questo caso il gioco è riuscito, ma allo stesso tempo è pieno di tante piccole imperfezioni che non me lo fanno apprezzare completamente.
in generale i livelli non sono male, non molto complessi ma pieni di segreti e di obbiettivi tipo completa il livello senza morire che fanno aumentare la sfida, per poi arrivare nella parte finale con un sostanziale aumento della difficoltà.
il problema viene quando alcune hitbox dei nemici sono un po troppo grosse facendoti morire ingiustamente, o ancora peggio quando il protagonista non si aggrappa e rimbalza sulla struttura facendoti cadere inevitabilmente nel vuoto.
anche il salto che non copre grandi distanze nei livelli dove bisogna saltare tra piattaforme mobili regalerà tante belle cadute.
ma la cosa più insopportabile di tutto il gioco è la premiazione finale dopo aver finito un livello.
inizieranno elencandoti i punti fatti
poi ci sarà il momento foto, quindi mettiti in posa attendi diversi secondi, tutto finito? no ovviamente ora ti mostriamo per altri secondi la bellissima foro appena fatta.
tutto finito? no ovviamente ricapitolo dei premi che abbiamo ottenuto nel livello, ed ora finalmente potremo ritornare nella mappa del mondo.
però aspetta un secondo forse ti interessa sapere per la terza volta quanti collezionabili hai trovato nel livello.
ma aspetta ancora un secondo hai trovato tutti i collezionabili, che bravo che sei stato ecco un bellissimo adesivo che ti verrà applicato sul tuo diario con tanto di animazioni lentissime.
tutto questo porterà via poco più di 1 minuto nulla di grava se solo non ci fossero una novantina di livelli, e se solo il gioco non durasse poco più di 10 ore, risultano quindi essere il 10/15% del esperienza complessiva di tutto il gioco.
fortunatamente il gioco non è solo questo, e tra simpatici livelli, e piacevoli prove a tempo che aggiungono fin da subito una buona sfida il titolo in generale risulta consigliato.
anche se forse il titolo è stato più studiato per essere apprezzato di più in cooperativa.
tra livelli opzionali che si possono giocare solo in coop, a livelli in singolo che palesemente hanno zone arene pensate per più giocatori, fino ad arrivare alle premiazioni finali , la sensazione che si ha è che sia proprio un titolo volutamente puntato sulla coop, ma che lo si può apprezzare anche da soli.
voto 75

If you got it for free with PS Plus it's fun enough to pass some time, but compared against contemporary platformers (or even ones from 20 years ago like Jak & Daxter) Sackboy is a big embarrassment.
The entire game feels like running through a swimming pool. Momentum is awful and controls feel laggy and unresponsive, which you'll definitely start to notice more on the occasions the game demands precision platforming from the player.
Level and boss design are also extremely pedestrian, the game doesn't do enough with the good ideas it has and way too much with the bad ones (auto-scrollers have never been fun,) and don't even get me started on gatekeeping content behind multiplayer, that garbage was unacceptable when Dead Space 3 did it a decade ago and time has not sweetened the premise.
In short, there is no reason to play this when much better options exist, but there are also worse games out there.

Ok, first of all, I'm not a blind hater. I really wanted to like this game as it is another entry in the LittleBigPlanet series, which happens to be one of my favourites videogame franchises. However, I am sad to note that this is one of the most boring and mentally tiring games I have ever had the displeasure of playing.
First of all, the pacing of the game is terrible. Sackboy moves at the speed of an average garden snail and a lot of the time platforming feels like you've only just barely made the jump across gaps. The LittleBigPlanet franchise was always a slow experience in where the player was encouraged to collect 'prize bubbles', which gave them items to be used around the game. The game has now turned this style into a painful experience with it's janky controls and slooooooooow gameplay.
Secondly, the level design and aesthetics is also really poor. I remember in the first LBP game every level had a unique quirk to it and they were very interesting to look at. In this game all of the levels seem to blend into one. None of them particularly stick out, and look comparatively bland. If you asked me to name any single level from this game. I couldn't. That is how lacking in variety they are.
To be fair, I didn't I wasn't expecting this game to be a masterpiece BUT I was expecting to gain some sort of satisfaction out of it, having waited 6 years for a new LBP game. There is some fun to be had here, but only if you manually speed through the game at a reasonable pace and get the required amount of orbs to progress (don't even bother torturing yourself to get 100%), or mess about with a few mates.
Seeing all the positive reviews is absolutely maddening. This is why the games industry is getting worse; half-heartedly produced games like these are eaten up by smooth-brains and casuals who praise it despite having barely grasped the concept of critical thinking. I have no idea what demographic this game is supposed to be targeted towards; It's too hard for children, but tonally the game is too childish for adults.
Look, just go play either LBP1 or 2 on PS3, they're infinitely better than this snooze fest. I hate sumo digital so much, and hope Media Molecule come back to developing the series in order to save it. Phew, rant over, time to move on and play better games.
