Is Giana Sisters - Twisted Dreams - Director's Cut still worth playing in 2026?
A platformer from Black Forest Games, Giana Sisters Twisted Dreams rests on a strong design idea: switching between two parallel worlds that transform the scenery, music and the heroine's abilities in real time. This morphing mechanic, the sumptuous art direction and Chris Huelsbeck's soundtrack make it a demanding, original platformer. The high difficulty and the precision required sharpen the adventure. An excellent platform game for fans of challenge and clever level design on Wii U.
