Review Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair - A Great Example of Less Is More
Going batty
Yooka-Laylee was born out of a desire to return to the 3D mascot platformers of the mid-nineties. The initial game by Playtonic, a studio that has several ex-Rare staffers in its ranks, found a degree of success in this mission statement, but it didn't quite measure up to expectations.

Changing things up
Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair is making some big changes to the formula laid down by the first game. While Playtonic's debut effort was a decent attempt at a nostalgic 3D collect-a-thon, the follow-up is a smaller scale, 2.5D platformer with a nifty top-down overworld to explore. In this new trailer, it seems more than just...
