About

It's night. Yuri opens his eyes. He wakes up in a strange forest. The small, courageous explorer rides on his bed on casters in this fantastical and mysterious place. Jump from creeper to creeper, cross rivers on the backs of frogs, discover secret passages and await strange visions, explore the centre of the earth and its hidden lakes, populated with prehistoric fish... Yuri is a naturalistic platform game requiring fast and accurate gameplay. 10 long levels make up this adventure full of encounters and perilous obstacles. Drawn by hand with delicate lines rich in details and accompanied by music and sound effects composed especially for the game, Yuri offers the gamer a unique immersive and poetic experience.

Yuri isn't great, no matter how you spin it. The physics system actively works to make platforming unbearable, and the ability to read the environment is sacrificed in the name of making things look good. The constant issues with the general mechanics and push for methodical searching, despite having mechanics that prioritize speed, make the player want to quit despite the game's relatively short length.

When the ride eventually ends, you’ll be smiling. The hand drawn visuals, alongside the delightful musical score, reinforcing just what works so well for such games. It’s a delightful dip into a more artistic way of gaming. Yuri comes strongly recommended for fans of beguiling runners.

Yuri’s unique premise, incredible soundtrack and beautifully crafted levels are not enough to detract from the poor platforming gameplay on offer here. With too many alternative eShop hits to mention, Yuri’s success is likely to remain a pipe dream.
