The Adventure Pals

A quirky, nonsense, weird game about a giraffe that fits into a backpack, talking animals, living toast, and other weird stuff. Im pretty sure the developers of this game took some liberties on this game from the adventure time cartoon..even maybe the misadventures of flapjack. The game has alot of cartoonish stuff in it, but at it's source it is quite a fun platformer with collecting mechanics. There are also rpg elements with leveling up to get more powerful moves and things. Anyways, here is my pro/con list:
PROS:
- Funny silly game with cartoonish characters and silly things. Great for young children to enjoy. Still, older people can still play it too.
- There are arena's around the map to test out your character in 5 rounds in each of them with nonstop enemies.
- Collectibles!
- Platforming, but not super hard. There are some puzzle mechanics, but there not difficult to figure out.
- Good controller support.
CONS:
- I had controller joystick drifting on this game, which i don't usually have on other games. This could be my own controller though that is causing this.
- To me, i found the story too short. I played it completely in 9 hours. I could probably do it even less than that, but i hunted for items and enjoyed myself playing it.
All in all, i found the game very entertaining, even if it was a tad short for me. I found this game would be great with young children, and the cartoonish graphics and silly characters make it fun to play. I recommend it to young and old video game players...just if your older, expect some flagulance and a sticker of a butt.

Cute little easy platformer with sticker and cupcakes to collect. The graphics are not breathtaking but functional. The humour is weird but works for me but fair warning, you might not look at hot dogs the same way as before ;)
Do I recommend it on full price? Considering that clearly effort and love went into this game, I think it might be worth it.

The Adventure Pals is a really charming indie platformer that I enjoyed. The game offers lite RPG elements of leveling up our main character and unlocking new abilities for yourself as well as your sidekicks. While the game isn't particularly challenging there are small sections that can give you a little trouble. The story and goofy humor along with sticker collectibles, pet costumes and hats for your main character make this an easy pickup for anyone looking for a fun, family game. My 12.3 hours of gameplay time consisted of beating the game as well as going back afterwards and hunting down all of the collectibles.
As far as the game controls for platformers on Steam I always use an Xbox One controller which worked very well. During my entire time playing I came across zero controller issues.

I usually get very frustrated when playing platformers because I suck , but that's not the case with The Adventure Pals. The game is aimed at a more casual or younger audience which suits me perfectly. There's even local (not online) co-op making it a perfect game to play with younger siblings or your kids.
The "humorous" dialog which the devs keep boosting about is a bit childish in my opinion. Maybe they could get a chuckle out of someone who's a bit younger.
Other than that, The Adventure Pals offers a large variety of enemies and collectables, fluid animations and eye-catching visuals. Definitely recommended if you can get it on a sale or got it from a Humble Monthly Bundle.

Pretty decent game. The graphics are very nice to look at. Sound is ok. But i feel there are too much lore and story for me to fully enjoy this game. I just feel that i can stand playing this game for max 15 minutes at a time and then i'm prettty sick of it. And the actual gameplay feels pretty overdone. The developers should learn that less is more. Would give a neutral rating if i could.

Got this game from Humble Bundle and was very pleasantly surprised.

The Adventure Pals are freaking adorable. The characters and the overall tone of the game is so cute it’s almost sickening. The story is as saccharine as it gets, yet I still enjoyed the hell out of it. The sweetness is offset by some well couched adult humor that gave me a chuckle from time to time.
TAP’s gameplay, while for the most part quite simplistic, was nonetheless a good time. Yeah, the levels are a little too similar in their layout, not really adding much variety until later on in the game. But at the same time I still found myself eager to dive into the next level or to advance to the next area of the world map. Earning upgrades was fun too, as most of them are quite useful.
Another note about the world map - it’s as charmingly designed as the levels are. I love the way the main character rides his pet giraffe from place to place. Or the way Mr Rock follows behind Wilton when he’s going to the shop to buy items or talking to one of the game’s wacky NPCs. It was a little strange that they give you the ability to terrorize all the cute little animals populating the game (there’s even an achievement based around this), but whatever. They’re holding gold and items, so I guess they gotta die...
The platforming and combat, while nothing spectacular, are spot on - easy to grasp and, most importantly, a lot of fun. The controls were excellent, as was the game’s overall presentation. Honestly, I really can’t find any hard faults to any aspect of this game. It’s a highly polished and overall very well done game for coming from such a small development team.
TAPs is an easy recommendation to action platformer fans looking for a relaxing, fun filled romp through a whimsical little world. I really hope this development team continues to create content as solid as this because they really got it right with this one. 😀👍
