God is a GeekApr 20248.5/10Turbo Kid is a Metroidvania where you can summon a bike at the push of a button, and that is absolutely as cool as it sounds.

Rapid Reviews UKJoseph BarroodJul 20244.5/5 starsAs a whole, Turbo Kid is an excellent Metroidvania, especially for those who like being guided without being told where to go. The game has a lot of collectables, engaged me with fun boss fights, and kept me hooked with a lovely presentation. Though none of the upgrades are vastly unique, and the combat sometimes felt repetitive, Turbo Kid is a lot of fun. I can easily recommend it, even if you are someone who, like me, has not watched the movie.
