Rugrats: Adventures in Gameland – PC Review

When Rugrats: Adventures in Gameland was announced I immediately sensed the nostalgia. The 90s were a magical time, especially if you grew up glued to Nickelodeon, absorbing episodes of Rugrats like a sponge. Tommy Pickles, Chuckie Finster, and the troublemaking twins Phil and Lil were more than just cartoon characters; they were part of our childhood. A platformer that marries retro 8-bit glory with HD polish, starring our favourite diapered heroes? Count me in! Published and developed by The MIX Games and Wallride, we covered the news about the release of Rugrats: Adventures in Gameland earlier this month. It is currently available digitally on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4|5, and Nintendo Switch. Smells like nostalgia Having spent time shuffling through the world of Gameland, I'm her...
