As bizarre as it is hilarious, with a timeless art style, but I just can't get used to the controls! The Prince controls like he's fighting against you, and watching him being knocked about like a Bop-It as something off-camera runs into him stops being funny after a while and just becomes frustrating.

As someone who enjoyed this on the GameCube, I bought this remaster on my Switch, and was thoroughly disappointed by how sloppily made it was. Astonishingly bad load times and audio desyncing issues mean this is definitive proof how NOT to do a remaster. This game already has it bad enough reputation-wise, and deserved far more respect.

Rough around the edges, especially with the backtracking and item juggling, but the two-character getup and the atmosphere is top-notch. So many moments are certified arse-clenchers. One of the best looking games on the GameCube by far, and worth a look if you like survival horror, even if it's not the best thing you'll ever play.

The games themselves have been refined, the party mode is a great timewaster (if immensely frustrating when an NPC gets the random event that swaps your just-about-to-be-completed sticker board with theirs), and some frankly hilarious multiplayer potential with the Dream Events mean this is a good pick for whiling away an afternoon.

A fantastic quickfire multiplayer game, with some serious sweaty-hand potential. Seeing the entire stage's colours invert for the umpteenth time as your friends are screaming in a voice call, someone having inexplicably parried a baseball moving past the speed of sound, is a feeling like nothing else.

The 'shared movement' mechanic, while novel and adds an interesting strategic element, feels against the mission statement of the series - everyone plotting against each other, making their own ways around the board to screw each other other.
It's well refined presentation-wise, but the idea just isn't sound.
