Don't overlook this one. It starts off as a Rayman clone but after awhile it starts to get interesting and throws in creative new gameplay elements. Some stages are so unexpected in their imagination. The game has some unpolished elements and a few bugs and glitches. But it hasn't crashed and nothing has broken the game. I'll admin that I could never finish a Rayman game because they're just too difficult for me. Troubles Land might be too easy because I'm getting 3-star stage completions. It doesn't require collecting every jewel. It's a lighter challenge, but I think that's okay. I've completed 3 of the 5 worlds at the time of this review and I think I already got my $10 worth. At this point I'm excited and pleased with the game. The developers didn't "phone it in".

Pros: - Looks very good - Varied stages with different types of gameplay - Short and easy, can be finished in one sitting - Achievements are easy to get Cons: - Floaty movement - Glitches, can get stuck in scenery - Unlockable characters are just reskins, no difference in play - If you are looking for a challenge, look elsewhere 7.5/10
Pros: Good for platformer beginners Diverse gameplay Sound and music is okay Graphics are okay Some of the level design is cool but some will make you go "why?" Getting all achievements is easy Some SHMUP action later on in the game Cons: Sloppy controls Sloppy placement of gems FPS is locked at 30 while playing Not many audio or video options Game too short for being so easy Overall Rating: 5.0/10 Would only recommend it for beginners but it isn't terrible and I had some fun with it. Can't really say it's worth $5. More like $2.50 would be a fair price for what it is.
This game feels like someone's first foray into building games. Unfinished, without polish, haphazardly put together and clearly copying Rayman games, word for word. Originality? None. Optimized? Not at all, frame rate capped at 30 and feels slugish. Platforming? Suffering as a result, jumping is closer to floating. 1/10 Just go play Rayman instead.
LOOKS interesting... but is a lame **** game that isn`t what it wants to be ! The challenge is to manage the bad controls, not the levels. I like good platformers as super meat boy fenix rage they bleed pixels rayman mr bree+, bloo kid ... I think I don`t wanna take the time to finish this bad joke edit: played stage 4.1-4.6 and this is a really bad copy of a level called "tube race" in Earthworm Jim 2. Even the colors and tube design are the same ! Another point is the camera/screen moves much slower than the player. So sometimes you only can guess what`s coming towards you. But it`s not a problem, the levels are made for five year olds. This game makes me sad, it`s a bad example for what`s wrong in the industry. Troubles Land, an impertinence, and it shouldn`t be legal
The platforming controls are terrible, four of the levels in a row are empty, boring schmups, there's no story beyond the opening cutscene, and the final boss is a nameless joke. Best parts were the OST, submarine sections, and that ONE level with all the traps and gears toward the end.
Troubles Land is a steam videogame featuring a canvas bag of shaky diamonds in artificial rayman colors weighed with a swinging slightly note. The controls are well done in uneasy lobby buttons!!! BUT I DONT LIKE THE THIRD WORLD its terrible.. The level design is deserted in chambers of creativity with sensitive areas darted back and forth. I give this game a 9.1/10 for trying something different in unusual methods like a nutty brain sliding his bony back breathalizer monologue love the burrito master
This game is a train wreck. It's like someone tried to bootleg an early alpha version of Rayman Origins or Rayman Legends while simultaneously avoiding putting in any actual effort towards game quality. I do not see any originality and the level layouts are outright bland. The mechanics are atrocious all round with bad camera angles, blind jumps, wonky hit/collision detection, inconsistent checkpoints, and a glitched sword attack to name just a few. The claim for full controller support? That's false advertising at the time of this review. I had to manually map over half of the controls myself. Avoid this game at all costs. It's not worth your time and it's not worth your money.
Beautiful game. But as others said, very easy. Probably more for younger players.
