Promenade (2024)

While there’s no shortage of 2D platformers in a variety of forms nowadays, few manage to catch the whimsical, animated look that Promenade does so well. It’s a beautiful looking game, and as an added plus it’s actually fun to play, making it a platforming adventure you absolutely should not miss.

Overall, Promenade is a deceptively simple-looking title that's full of things to do. There's plenty of variety to keep you hooked, with challenging puzzles and platforming elements to conquer. It's a sweet outing that's super-satisfying to play.

Promenade is one of those indie games that you need to have in your collection thanks to its superb gameplay and wide appeal.

Promenade is a cute 2D platformer with heavy inspiration from 3D platformers of yore. It dips into other genres like puzzle, Metroidvania and collectathons and eases players into its varied gameplay ideas. While the game could explain things better, such as what buttons to press for certain mechanics, what it does is create a great and vibrant experience for its players. Considering this is the debut game from the team at Holy Cap, it's a fantastic achievement.

Promenade is a 2D platformer with puzzle game elements that offers a unique and fun gaming experience. Set in a fairy-tale-like environment with lovely artistic features, the game successfully captures a child's sense of wonder as they discover the world. Featuring a extensive array of puzzles, mini-games with a nostalgic '80s style, and uniquely beautiful landscapes, Holy Cap's creation delivers an engaging and stimulating gameplay.
