Poncho Preview | GameRevolution

GR:

I saw Poncho a couple weeks back at a San Francisco event put on by publisher Rising Star Games and hadn't gotten around to a preview write-up before PAX hit. To no real surprise, the game had a long line at Nintendo's pre-PAX Indie Showcase Nindies@Nintendo event. Like a lot of the indies on Nintendo's slate, Poncho aims for a certain retro-cool nostalgia while mixing it with gameplay elements that would have been impossible in the era that it references—and it thoroughly hits the target.
