A fun trip down memory lane. Doesn't quite hit the highs of the source material, but it is executed with tons of charm and competence. Honestly, one of the best colourful cartoon platformers on Steam.

This used to be my favorite game when i was younger, and found it really hard, i recently replayed it and its still really fun, the movement humor combat and graphics are all good, and the final boss fight is still really hard. if you have played or heard of banjo kazooie and liked it this game is like those. 8/10

I've heard mixed opinions about this one, but personally I had lot of fun! The game was also surprisingly difficult at times, but not in an annoying way ^^

I don't understand where most of the negative feedback is coming from. This is very much a faithful 3D platformer akin to the original Banjo Kazooie games. The writing is clever and hilarious, the levels are expansive (and can be kind of empty at parts, but not terribly), the boss fights are fun, the skills are great and easy to use, and I love the progression. Overall great game, cheaper than anything that came out on N64, and absolutely worth it if you were a fan of the classic platform collectathons.

I don't mind this Yooka Laylee game, after putting some thought into it, it's not as bad as what it seems, might not be one of the greats of Banjo-Kazooie as the bear & bird game, Playtonic are also the same people who are under the influence of Rare & probably knows how to mechanically craft their game on their developing computers, In Yooka Laylee there are many collectables such as Paige's the main collectables kinda like Stars off the Super Mario games like 64 & Galaxy as examples, Quills that are also another source of collectables on the landscape but less important than Paige's, find them all in one area & you'll get a Paige, anyway the main goal of this game is to find most of the Paige's but if you can find them all & fully complete the game by all means congratulations plus defeat Yooka Laylee's nemesis Capital B being the Gruntilda of Banjo Kazooie in this game which is similar. Above everything it's a good platformer & pretty much does well on how you move, some people may find the controls rather clunky at first, the more you get used to it, the more you can get adapted to it, can recommend this game if you like the platformers & the collecting side to things plus a fan of Banjo & Kazooie in the old days of Nintendo of Nintendo 64 when Rare knew what it had until Banjo Kazooie became a part & probably sold to the likes of Microsoft & their Xbox's, miss that game on Nintendo's side of things but never mind, it's another Recommendation.
