Actually, what the Kickstarter had promised was: I had foolishly backed it at a tier for which I was still due a physical box and printed manual. But then I started receiving emails about the remaining physical rewards from the Kickstarter campaign. It received mediocre reviews and thoroughly disappointed most of the people who had invested in it, so I was ready to forget it and move on.
9, not only were you my biggest disappointment of 20, but also 2017. I thought I was done with this game after it finally released in June 2016 (on six of the nine platforms for which it’d been promised, anyway).

The freedom of being able to climb almost any surface and sail across distances with the paraglider turned the land into a playground that was always a joy to explore.

Meanwhile, there were a ton of other big releases. The Nintendo Switch debuted in March with one of the best Zelda games of all time as a launch title, and then one of the best 3D Mario games came out on the same system six months later.
