A great little 3D platformer that does it's best to give players a solid and exciting experience featuring a much more refined and redesigned Kao core experience and story. Kao the Kangaroo should impress with its solid controls and strong visual design - if players can accept the drops in visual quality on Switch then this is a hearty recommendation to all players of such titles.
Kao the Kangaroo makes a valiant effort in this reboot, but it still feels like half the game it should be. Many mechanics feel unexplored, the final world is a single level with a boss fight, and it’s very glitchy. Still, it’s a fun enough romp for what it is and I hope we see more of this marsupial in the future.

"Kao the Kangaroo" has become a nice title for the console and PC. The storyline, the playability and also the graphics can be seen and especially played. The tasks and battles really make you want to play and always put a smile on your face. Although the camera can't always keep up well, these are only small flaws, otherwise the game "Kao the Kangaroo" is highly recommendable.

classic 3D platformer. Little glitches but nothing game braking. Been playing games since the Atari. Glitches these days can be fixed. Definitely doesn’t deserve zero! But the eight I gave it!

Kao the Kangaroo is a fun reboot that should get your attention. The save-system bug aside, Kao the Kangaroo is a simple and fun 3D platformer that anyone can enjoy. Yes, it doesn’t provide much of a challenge and once you’ve played through you will have seen everything on offer. You’re not getting the next Mario Odyssey-like game in terms of quality; it’s clearly a developer trying to punch higher than it can really go. That said, the game itself is a lot of fun and a refreshingly easy take on the genre. If you’re looking for your next easygoing platformer or just something that anyone in the family can enjoy, you should check out Kao the Kangaroo.
Despite some rough edges, this is a charming platforming experience.
Kao the Kangaroo is the traditional game that does not keep the glory of 3D platform games. It's a nice game with a different character that show us what we already know without anything new. Unfortunately, the Nintendo Switch version has very obvious graphical problems.
Kao the Kangaroo would not be the best 3D platformer even if it came out 15 years ago, but as a nostalgic return of the average and somewhat forgotten franchise, it brings more than we expected.
I really wanted to love Kao the Kangaroo. And while I did enjoy parts of it, the severe glitch I encountered kept me from progressing like I had expected to and effectively kept me from actually beating the game. Once Nintendo gets around to implementing the patch, I could potentially recommend the experience. But until version 1.2 goes live, I cannot recommend it to other platformer fans in good conscience.
The game was not working on my Nintendo Switch for almost a year. The developer didn't respond to any of my messages, even though I asked through 3 different ways.
The game is fun, it has some of the old Kao vibe. The performance on Switch is quite poor, with lots of lagging on many occasions. That doesn't make the game unplayable though and I still had good time with it.

Kao the kangaroo is a simple fun 3d platformer, it's not the best one out there but for what it is it's pretty fun. There's quite a feq glitches sure but none of them are really game breaking. Also i want to say that the switch version of this game needs a bit more optimazation beacuse the game somethimes chugs hard. But i enjoyed it

Not as great of a reboot as I thought it would be. This title gave me high hopes for a return of the franchise, but after playing it, i can't recommend it for anyone besides hardcore fans of the series
