Adiboo & Paziral's Secret
Continuing its extensive range of children's titles, Vivendi releases a PlayStation game featuring a young and intrepid explorer by the name of Adiboo. On Planet Celesta, a small world made from numerous islands, life is usually peaceful. However, when a small and mysterious island made of metal disappears, it's leader, Paziral, wreaks havoc on the Tonies' island, one of the most ancient on Celesta. And that's when one of the island's small inhabitants, Tiltilli, asks for your help. A single-player adventure, Adiboo is your average platform adventure, but can be closely related with Naughty Dog's Crash Bandicoot series. There are two distinct playing styles that involve players in a 2D side-on scrolling platformer as well as a 3D adventure. The side-on scrolling section of the game is very much an old school experience, whereby players move from left to right, jumping platforms and collecting numerous valuables. The 3D section is like many modern day adventures and includes boat races down lava streams. And for a last generation PlayStation game, Adiboo looks quite respectable in the visuals department. Although pixelated, the game is reasonably smooth and for the most part, looks as good as any other PlayStation offering. Adiboo and Paziral's Secret is a pretty good platform game for an old console. Great for the kids. This game is also known as Adiboo and the Energy thieves on PC.
