"A Child's Introduction To Modern Gaming Trends": Paw Patrol World Review

screenrant.com:

is the newest installment in the lineup of PAW Patrol games by developer 3D Clouds and Publisher Outright Games. Despite games for this franchise released before, brings something entirely new to the table with a completely open-world gameplay experience that could give young children their first, safe, opportunity to experience that level of freedom in gaming.

Aside from the new gameplay style, is not too dissimilar in actual content from that of previous games, or even the movie being released alongside it, . Ryder and the pups are tasked with completing an overall story objective for the town, while also helping out several civilians along the way and saving the day. Though it’s not particularly original, it is faithful to what would be expected from the franchise.

Though kids will likely be eager to open up the game and play as their favorite pup, this is one area where it seems that could’ve held out a little. Right from the tutorial, players will have access to every single pup available, including their vehicles. Though this seems fair for a children’s game, it also takes away what could be an exciting task which is unlocking new characters. There are 8 different pups to select from and not only is this overwhelming, but it takes the opportunity for more fun away.

Additionally, players are abruptly introduced to the game’s mechanics right from the start. Unfortunately, those mechanics don’t get any more elaborate than that for pretty much the entire game, with a majority of tasks only requiring the pressing of two buttons. Being that this is meant for young preschool children, it’s understandable that controls will be simplified, but there was no variety at all and no slow increase in difficulty to any degree.
