"Ape Escape might show its age in certain regards - the controls are very much of their time, and the mini-games are hit and miss - but it remains a fun, easy-going adventure. Tracking down all the monkeys and figuring out how to catch them is still a joy, and all Spike's gadgets are useful across the varied, colourful stages. Packed with charm and still pretty unique to this day, this is quite simply an oldie but a goodie."

Swoon! Earth Escape casts you as a crew member scrambling to flee a planet drowning in corrosive green sludge. Your mission is to scavenge scattered ship components while dodging hazards and enemies. The gameplay blends platforming challenges with turn-based combat as you navigate crumbling environments. Each level requires careful resource management and timing to outmaneuver increasingly aggressive threats. The game leans heavily into 8-bit visuals and chiptune soundscapes that evoke classic arcade titles. Its difficulty curve has drawn mixed reactions, some praise the precise controls and rewarding boss fights, while others find the platforming sections frustratingly rigid. With a Metacritic score of 72 and a Steam user base of 25,000 owners, it appeals most to players nostalgic for retro action-puzzlers. The crew’s quirky dialogue and environmental storytelling add charm amid the chaos.
The planet is flooded with a mysterious green acid. Help Swoon and the rest of the crew escape the Earth. Collect all the mechanical parts of your spaceship and face the most daring bosses in this epic retro-style journey!
