Run, jump, die, repeat in this update of a “classic”
Gimmick! Special Edition is a competent update to a classic Famicom game that never made its way to the US. It’s often brutal, it’s easy to mess up, and it doesn’t always have the best level design, but it fuels us (and probably speedrunners) to keep pushing forward. J.J. explains why this little reissue has just enough meat on its bones to satisfy our nostalgia appetites.
This review is based on a Steam code sent to SideQuesting by the publisher. It originally appeared on the July 14th edition of The SideQuest.
