This platform game puts you in charge of Rick, who is out to grab treasure and restore the guardian tree. He’s armed with a sword and magic arrows, as well as the unique ability to change seasons at will – freezing rivers with winter to create platforms, or using an autumn wind to blow enemies away.

The pixel art of Fox N Forests is beautiful and the soundtrack is excellent. However, the inability to use arrows while jumping is a frustration. What’s more, the levels are few in number, so the game requires you to replay previously-beaten levels to look for new items. This becomes a chore because the levels are often long enough to outstay their welcome – a shame, given that the core platforming is enjoyable.
