Full review

Princess Ruby takes the world of platformers and adds a charming twist, creating an enjoyable experience for young children. With its vibrant visuals and simple controls, this game is perfect for those new to gaming.

One of the standout features of Princess Ruby is the option for 2 player local co-op. This allows friends or family members to join in on the fun, making it a great opportunity for bonding time. The drop-in and out feature ensures that even if one player reaches a checkpoint, the other can easily teleport to catch up.

The game offers different difficulty levels, catering to various skill levels. For beginners or younger players who may find challenges overwhelming, there's an option to play with just one button per hand. On normal mode collecting gems grants extra lives and a golden heart provides invulnerability after three failed attempts at a level. However, those seeking genuine challenges can opt for hard mode where only one extra life is provided per level.

In addition to gameplay customization options, Princess Ruby allows players to personalize their character's appearance with various costumes. As you progress through levels and rescue items stolen by dragons from your castle, you'll have access to new outfits like knights or cowgirls - there are even surprises like superhero suits or witches' robes waiting! Moreover, if you're lucky enough during your adventures in this magical world full of castles and unicorns, you might stumble upon ways to change even coloration patterns on unicorns!

All in all, Princess Ruby managessteal-wayd our hearts with its delightful blend of whimsy and challenge-easily becoming an excellent choice when introducing children (or anyone!) into platformer games.
