pure imagination—a spirited work of love and flair from a team at the peak of their creative talents. it is immediately and consistently apparent throughout banjo that every single crevice and corner in the game has been crafted with inspiration, care and pure passion, and while I enjoyed some worlds less than others, not one felt like an afterthought.

to me, it's held back from perfection by a few factors—particularly the slow and often slippy controls—but regardless, banjo is a truly rare and marvellous game: absolutely loaded with creativity, charm and wit, and wonderfully paced!

make a new one!!
