Bubsy 4D Reviews Are Mixed, With Some Calling It a Series High and Others Criticizing Its Feel
Reviews for Bubsy 4D, the latest entry in the long-maligned Bubsy franchise, are landing with divided opinions. Push Square and Nintendo Life gave it cautious praise — the former calling it the best of a bad bunch and the latter saying it finally gives the mascot a good game — while Kotaku found the gameplay feel disappointing. The overall picture is a game that may clear a low bar set by its predecessors without fully winning over critics.
