Gareth writes - The humble platformer used to be the daddy of all gaming genres. We’d have iconic team leaders like Sonic, Mario and Crash helping sell games by the bucket-load in order to keep their hungry audience happy. In more recent years the adventure games, the first-person shooters and a multitude of online sport games have taken that mantle away from the platformer and it’s been left to the the indie market to embrace the genre. Wenjia is one of those, with its simple mechanics and beautiful world. But does it hark back to those bygone days of platform glory?
Neil writes: "What's better than getting access to one definitive edition of a game? Well, getting access to two games for one brilliantly low price of course. And that is what we have here right now as the Complete Journey Bundle for Candleman sees E-Home Entertainment throw in Wenjia free of charge."
Wenjia is a platformer where you have to traverse through two different dimensions to save some oppressed rabbit creatures who are being chased out of their forest home. You control a cat who can phase shift, ride the wind, and double jump, but cannot swim. Along with water, you’ll have to avoid lava, fire, and lots of spikes.
