"I really wanted Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back to be good, or at least entertainingly bad, but I was just left with a tepid, overpriced, and somewhat generic 2D platformer that wasn't funny or fulfilling enough to justify a $30 purchase. If you are really dedicated to the character, I would wait until it drops to around $5 or $10. Once you beat the game, Accolade promises that “Bubsy will return,” so let's just hope his next outing is funnier, lengthier, and more memorable than Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back. Bubsy 3D 2 anyone?"

About

Aggretsuko: The Short Timer Strikes Back turns office drudgery into a chaotic puzzle challenge. As the red panda Retsuko, you rearrange colored tiles representing characters from the show to clear levels in a match-three format. Each floor of the new office building introduces themed obstacles like locked doors or sticky furniture that need specific moves to bypass. Progress earns stars to unlock new areas and character abilities, letting you swap tiles in creative ways. The mechanics are straightforward but require planning, every move counts toward your goal of meeting the boss’s impossible design demands. The game stands out for its cheeky humor and charming character cameos. Unlocking one-minute episodes of the Aggretsuko series as you play adds a nice incentive, blending puzzle progress with bite-sized comedy. While the core loop of matching and clearing levels is familiar, the office-themed obstacles and the cast’s distinct personalities keep things fresh. Players appreciate the steady pace and low-stakes approach, making it a solid pick for casual puzzle fans looking to decorate virtual cubicles without the real-world stress.

Storyline

The Carrier Man Trading Company is relocating its offices, and Director Ton has placed Retsuko in charge of designing new offices. Now, Retsuko must design offices that accommodate all her colleagues' needs!
