About this game

Boasting beautiful, hand-drawn animations and a re-orchestrated soundtrack, the cult classic returns with a unique blend of exploration, action, and adventure!

Cursed into a half-human, half-lizard monstrosity by the Meka-Dragon, you are in search for a cure! The only way you can return to human form is to find the Salamander Cross, a magical item with the power to remove curses...

With each dragon slain, the curse intensifies, transforming you into different animals! Explore large, interconnected locations populated with grumpy monsters and exotic dragons!

Play as the game’s classic character, Hu-Man, or in support of War Child UK’s Day of the Girl campaign you can now play as Hu-Girl and support girls around the world. You can also inhabit Lizard-Man, Mouse-Man, Piranha-Man, Lion-Man, and Hawk-Man, and use their unique abilities to uncover the land’s deepest secrets.

Enjoy 3 difficulty levels catering to players of all types, and switch from modern graphics and sound to 8-bit graphics/audio at any time - even during gameplay!

Very amazing and classic game but not ported with very many options. For instance, my phone has the ratio set up so the icons on the top of the screen are basically missing, which is very annoying. I wanted to adjust the resolution or side bars, but there's no options for that. Otherwise it would be a fine port. I refunded it :(

A revised review of the game. Overall it's an okay port, but there are a myriad of issues, as listed from experience here: The title screen is an amalgamation between the Wonder Boy and Girl variants. Occasionally attack or spell buttons fail to work. The Tasmanian Sword can glitch and no longer allow you to switch forms. Mouse-Man's hidden challenge area for his charmstone bugs the control pad during the high platforming bit, making him veer off to the right and back down to the bottom.

So this is normally an amazing game, and a 5 Star game at that, but for some reason whenever I try to play this game with the Razer Kishi on my phone, the game auto crashes. This is an amazing game, but if I can't play it using the controller I always use, then I'd rather play it on Switch instead. I'd like to have it playable on the go (and specifically in my pocket), but this game is hard enough WITHOUT touch controls. If they update it and fix this issue then the game deserves five stars.
