Voodoo Vince Remastered
The classic character platformer is back for the first time in over 13 years, and now in glorious high definition! Vince’s adventure takes him from the streets of New Orleans to the depths of a Louisiana bayou to find the whereabouts of his keeper, Madam Charmaine. In true voodoo style, Vince encounters and defeats quirky monsters and villains … by kicking his own butt! By racing under a falling safe, jumping into a high-speed blender, or leaping under falling rubble, Vince is sure to defeat his enemies—all while managing to escape completely unscathed. Voodoo combat action: Players can employ more than 30 voodoo attacks that do outrageous things to Vince, but it's the monsters who end up hurting! Unlike in other games, players must actually USE dangers and hazards, instead of running from them. Falling safes, prickly pushpins, and bolts of lightning bring a whole new meaning to the phrase "no pain, no gain."

Originally played this on XBOX so absolutely had to pick it up when I realised it was on steam.
I adore the setting, the soundtrack, and the characters.
The platforming is overall satisfying, with some segments being more annoying, but can definitely recommend picking it up if you want some old school platforming fun.

I came back to Voodoo Vince mostly out of nostalgia, and I'm happy to say it still holds up. Whether that's nostalgia talking or not, I had just as much fun with it as I did back then.
The story is simple, the objective is clear, and the witty dialogue still gives the game a lot of charm. The controls feel incredibly smooth, the updated art style is a great improvement, and the achievements are a pleasant addition without being overly difficult.
It's a great trip down memory lane, but it also stands on its own as a fun and charming platformer.
⭐ 10/10 - nostalgia may have brought me back, but the charm kept me playing.

very good, plays better than I remembered. the end game is a little bit headache inducing but I'll forgive it since this game is so old. The ost and visual direction of this game is very nostalgic as well. 8.5/10

This game is so FUN! I didn't play this before buying but It gives off such strong nostalgia.
Voodoo Vince has the magic of things from my childhood it's bleeding passion/whimsy,but it's unique with it's themes,locations, and protagonist.
If you like platformers this is one of the best on steam period and you need to experience it like yesterday
Voodoo Vince is truly a hidden gem and one that I wished I found sooner in life

This is a really well done remaster. I fully completed the game and got all the achievements without encountering any bugs, glitches, or crashes.
The graphics have been updated while staying true to the original.
I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of adult humour in the game, as at first it seems like just another '90s/early 2000s collectathon.
I also really enjoyed the fact that in boss battles the way you win is to hurt YOURSELF. You know, since you're a voodoo doll and all.

Silly sarcastic spooky buoy vibes. I have vague memories of playing it one times as a kid and so picked this up. It's pretty fun but can feel a bit long.

Loved Voodoo Vince on the Original Xbox and I even love it here as a Remaster on Steam! I personally think this game has aged well; Other then the lives system, all the music is here all the old original graphics and even the voice acting! It's all memorable.
I will always love this game and I love it even more now that I 100% Completed it a couple years ago and then just never did a review.
Seriously if you love platforming and action combat based gameplay GET Voodoo Vince on Xbox or this Remaster both are fantastic and it's hard to miss out on.
