Playtonic’s platforming energy buddies Yooka and Laylee right this moment return with a brand new retro-styled journey, Yooka-Laylee And The Impossible Lair. This is thrown again a number of years sooner than their 3D debut journey (see our Yooka-Laylee review for extra on that), this time leaping round in side-on sections with top-down overworld hub bits too. The necessary factor is, the lizard and bat are associates they usually like leaping.
See? Jumping. Oh, the story? I’m instructed:
“With their arch-nemesis Capital B up to no good, the buddy duo needs to spring into action once again to save the day. To thwart his evil plan of using a ‘Hivemind’ device to enslave an entire kingdom of bees, our heroes need to take the fight to Capital B’s ‘Impossible’ Lair. Things look tough, but with the help of Queen Phoebee and her Royal Beetallion, Yooka and Laylee might just have a chance!”
So you need us to leap on some puns, gotcha. Or am I leaping the pun, eh? Eh? Eh… might I bee any much less into puns? Why am I punishing myself. I hive to cease. I’m gonna bounce.
Yooka-Laylee And The Impossible Lair is out now on Steam and GOG for £25/€30/$30.
