Ok, for people which doesnt know, "the great gian(n)a sisters" were born back in the day as clone from the Super Mario Bros back in the 1980s on the C64. They were really good back than and even had a new version on the Nintendo DS which was also great - to easy but still an ok platformer for the time.

This version is based on said DS version which also came out on phones but...yeaaaaaa...this is bad...really really bad...

What i dont understand is why they used the phone version and ported it over to PC. Its really ugly and overall looks more like an actual flash game from the early 2000s.
The Pixel style from the DS version was actually really great to look at and if you look at trailers o gameplay videos from it, you can see the differ...

Its not that this version "is" bad but it "feels" bad. As i said, you pay a "good" price for it, for a game which feels and looks like is made as flash game. The look and style looks so bad, textures are actually glitching or twitching (like the dots from the map screen or the normal bricks), Giana looks really REALLY ugly and over all, it feels wrong to play this version.

It is still the DS game "somewhat" but tbh i refunded it because it just doesnt click with me...

If this would be a 1:1 port from the DS version, i would have said yes but they didnt even fix bugs the DS version had but added more so it feels. Shooting enemies with the fireball doesnt give any points and in this version, said Fireballs just explode mid-air out of nowhere for no reason, limiting their use as well...

So over all, No, i sadly cant recomment this version.
As i said, it feels like an early flash game, lookes like one and has soem old known bugs from other versions and new ones, glitchy textures and the overall "vibe" from this version is just...bad.

So if you have yourself a DS, you should better try getting the DS version, else avoid this version for sure. Its somewhat sad to see a childhood game from me ended up like...well, that...
