A late-cycle PS1 3D platformer aiming at the Banjo lineage. Pleasant dreamlike setting, wonky camera, uneven levels. Not unpleasant but clearly overshadowed by Spyro and Crash Bandicoot.

Collector interest

Italian PAL variant of this GT Interactive 3D platformer that arrived after Spyro and Crash. The Italian-localised packaging makes it markedly scarcer than the English release, narrowing supply for collectors of regional PAL pressings. Loose it stays cheap, but the sealed copy benefits both from this uncommon localisation and a thin end-of-life print run.
