Nefarious is a joy from start to finish. Fun platforming levels, inventive "reverse boss fights" where you get to pilot the boss mechs against the heroes and humorous dialogue with lovable characters. You play as Crow as he globe hops around the world and kidnaps princesses from different kingdoms. Naturally your master plan is to rule the world. The game's levels play like a Megaman game with the ability to power Crow up as you collect money, and a fun and interesting "bomb jump" mechanic that lets you perform a non-damaging double-jump when colliding with your own projectiles in mid air. This game is without a shadow of a doubt worth your time, especially if your a fan of classic old school platformers.
