Very solid game and for this price, it's a no brainer.

Some nostalgia is there but overall the game is so different it feels like a sequel made by a different studio as opposed to a rerelease or homage. Not bad but I'd prefer the original with updated graphics....heck, or the original game with original graphics.

I will throw my two cents in, I found it to be pretty faithful to the original. Gameplay is mostly the same, the types of earthlings are only slightly expanded from the original, and the mechanics/world perspective are roughly the same. I loved the original as a kid, and this one was really enjoyable.

Nostalgia for real… anyone know if there's any way to play this without the switch? Either on ps or computer or anything? (I want to relive my childhood but just got a ps5 so can't really afford a Nintendo switch) TIA

It's also on Playstation, currently full price but it dips every few weeks like the Steam and Switch versions

the original Toejam and Earl and the sequel Toejam and Earl: Panic on Funkotron are also available for the switch as part of the Sega Genesis Classics Collection. The original was a great game. I highly recommend it. Back in the Groove is a good successor.
