Croc: Legend of the Gobbos is a 3D platformer that was also released on the Sega Saturn and Windows in 1997.
+ Some neat puzzles compliment the action-platforming, and World 4's Bowser-style castle stages offer fiendish challenges.
+ Plenty of secret areas to unlock, and unlike Crash Bandicoot (1996, PS1) your progress can be saved after each level.
- Controls are persistently troublesome, with overly-sensitive turning and basic swimming being especially problematic.
- Depth perception is tricky to judge, which makes platform leaps and combat anxiety-inducing affairs.
- Slowdown is prevalent throughout and the constant loading of small areas takes the flow out of the gameplay.
- World 1's sombre music doesn't compliment the locales, and the underwhelming boss battles are lacking in imagination.
