You even start with a honk button that doesn’t do anything but make noise. You play as a goose in a power suit, and it’s really just a goose. Mighty Goose is a real run-and-gun treat while it lasts.
SwitchArcade Score: 3/5 Mighty Goose ($19.99) How often do we get noir detective RPGs on the Switch, after all? But you’re going to have to be prepared to put up with a lot of rough edges. If you’re patient, there’s something here to enjoy. The combat is simple, using controls similar to a twin-stick shooter, but that simplicity can get repetitive over the course of the game.
The story generally had me interested, but when it goes off the rails it really goes off the rails. It reminded me of a 1990s RPG in a lot of the right ways. The presentation on the whole was pretty good, even if the animations were a bit stiff at times. Why is my character so slow when I have to walk around so darned much? Why does he get tired so quickly in battle even when I boost my endurance stat? Where the heck is this story going? What started as a fresh take on a familiar concept soon became more of a chore than anything else. The more I played, the more disappointed I became. A frustrating time, thanks to the awkward combat, but a good time on the whole. It’s a noir detective story with heavy supernatural elements, all set to the tune of an action-RPG. I really wanted to like this game more than I did. Reviews & Mini-Views Pecaminosa – A Pixel Noir Game ($14.99)
