Games Asylum: "Modern day Game Boy releases tend to take inspiration from either Castlevania or Zelda. It pays to crib from the classics, certainly, and the genres in which these two fall allow for a wealth of possibilities."
WTMG's Oliver Shellding: "Which is a shame, because Kudzu has the potential and really could be fun. It’s not a terrifically long title, but it’s got heart and a proud showing of individuality in both concept and execution. But having the game become so difficult, not because it’s intended to be, but because it’s performing poorly, reminded me less of Goodboy Galaxy and more of Faceball 2000. If there becomes a more economic way to get the straight Gameboy version, I highly recommend that and think it could be exciting for retro enthusiasts and modern players. This Switch emulation version, however, is an overgrown thicket of bugs, and you should probably stay far away until the exterminator comes."
Kudzu takes place in a fun, creative world that plays, looks, and sounds like a 90s Game Boy classic. It's a great adventure that will appeal to any retro gamer looking for an authentic old-school experience!
A new physical Game Boy game, Kudzu, is looking set to come to Nintendo Switch thanks to a successful Kickstarter campaign.
