The year was 1998, and three-dimensional perspectives dominated all major video games during the late 90s. Sony took a gamble and decided to publish the newest IP from the creator of Ghosts ‘n Goblins, titled Tomba!, a "2.5D" side-scroller. In a time where similar titles of its time like Klonoa: Return to Phantomile and Astal failed commercially, Tomba! had also met the same fate, despite the critical acclaim from media, and fell even further into obscurity as time went on. 4/5
