Chris Buffa (Modojo): We think Kid Tripp would have made an impact in the late 80s on the Nintendo Entertainment System, though we're happy to play it on our iPhones and iPads. Set to debut on the App Store August 1st for $0.99, this retro-inspired platformer challenges players to guide a youngster through a plethora of increasingly difficult stages. One hit or fall results in death, which gives the title a tough old school vibe.
Jacob writes: "So, how best is it to describe Kid Tripp on Xbox? Short, but sweet. It might only be an hour long, but it’s entirely worth it. The gameplay and level design are both stellar, and the game is challenging without being unfair or overly-punishing. For less than a fiver, what more could you want?"
Neil writes: "We first stumbled upon Kid Tripp back in 2018, wandering towards the Four Horses booth at EGX and being drawn in by the old school platforming of Miles and Kilo and wowed by the nonstop autorunning of Kid Tripp. These were games that we kept going back to time and time again across the course of the event and after seeing the former drop onto Xbox One in the early stages of 2019, Four Horses have now got round to pushing the latter out to Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC, with Xbox Play Anywhere capabilities bringing everything together."
