This game is a hidden gem and every 2D platformer fan (of the difficult ones) should play it. It has issues but it's still worth it. What makes this game a very hard 2D platformer is that Mago looks very big on the screen, same for the enemies but the platforms you have to jump on are very tight, what adds to the difficulty is the fact Mago in right in the middle so it's very hard to see what is in front of you (with one long jump you could reach the edge of the screen if it didn't move). So this game requires maximum precision which is fun but at the same time frustrating. Boss fights are cool, there are many of them in this game and most of them aren't easy. The shadow levels are the hardest, especially the last one that brings together every previous level, so it's very long and frustrating. The CapyTowers, timed challenges available for each world, are the most tedious part of completing the game since you have to complete each one 6 times to obtain all the rewards. Also, having to farm 2 full orb (money) pouches to get a costume and a wand upgrade you can obtain only after beating the secret boss at the very end of the game makes absolutely no sense. It took me 10 hours to beat the base game (without upgrading the life bar and the wand) and 13 more hours to get all the achievements.

good platformer game, but not without some caveats - screen resolution is crazy low, even lower than on NES, so it's more like Gameboy Advance game - cloud saves are not supported - game doesn't remember the "full screen" option

I'll write this review in english, even if it's not my language cause I think this game needs more visibility out of Hispanic countries. Mago is a game made by a peruvian youtuber called Pepe el Mago, and I usually don't trust anything made by content creators, even more if they are the MC of the game (kind of). But Mago is surprisingly good, after trying the demo I knew I could trust this game completely and bought it day one. Overall, Mago is an impressive platform game at the same level as the biggest games of the genre.

Really fun platformer with a unique zoomed-in style. Everything seems large and up close. Lots of level and mechanic variety. Not as challenging and mathematical as Celeste, but a very fun and addicting time. Great upgrade/collecting loop that encourages multiple trips to a level, but doesn't completely send you up the wall. Fun boss and unique boss fights as well. Also, the music is GREAT!! I've been humming the main track a lot, feel like i'm losing my mind. Though, it lacks variety in bangers like that. All in all, if you like platformers, you'll probably like this.
