There isn’t a wide range of weapons you receive on your journey and by the end of the game you really are only using the first two you got, the watering can and your sword. Heck, Turnip Boy is slightly more challenging if you’ve never played one of the classic Zelda games. The combat and puzzles are also stupid simple. It’s hard to get lost in this game unless you missed speaking with that one character with that one sidequest you just so happened to need. The games map is also pretty condensed in size, allowing for easy layout and travel for the player to memorize. As long as you pay attention and speak to the characters, you won’t have a problem finding where to go next. The gameplay in Turnip boy is very streamlined. From the neglectful babysitter to the veggies who deal in the black market. Turnip Boy is surrounded by a cast of colorful misfits. And he does it all by just standing there… staring… smiling… like he has no other emotion while he gazes into your soul… He’s great and we love him because you can’t get mad at that adorable face! He rips up love letters, commits bloody murder, and for some reason he hates taxes. We don’t know why he’s such a prick, he just is. But we were surprised at how well executed this game is. The cute graphics are deceiving as it’s definitely meant for older audiences. The concept and art design is simple and charming. Turnip Boy hits the nail on the head on almost every front. Spend the next 3-5 hours of your life embarking on his quest, lovingly inspired by the original Zelda games, where you “help” your “friends” and “improve” your “home”. But you can’t get mad at him because of that smile.īecause he decided to commit tax evasion, Turnip Boy is now under the mercy of Mayor Onion.

He also happens to be a major douche! Not for the tax evasion part, he’s just a real piece of work. An adorable vegetable with stubby arms and legs, button eyes, and a permanent shit eating grin. Also he’s a vegetable and programmed by Gen Z.Įveryone, meet Turnip Boy. Link lives in a capitalist hellhole where he must pay his taxes. Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion will be made available today on the Nintendo eShop and Steam.Picture this. Not too many places you can do both these days. Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion aims to offer a silly, fun adventure filled with pig-slapping action and a little bit of document destruction. Hard to punish you when there’s no evidence. At least tearing up vital documents makes me feel better, though.

That would be a bit too much for my heart to handle in this adorable vegetable world. Still, how else is a turnip going to deal with a bunch of hungry, cranky animals? Well, beside hitting them, you’ll also be able to grow plants that will help you out on your journey as well. I wasn’t sure what I was expecting in a game about tax evasion, but top-down dungeon crawling and fighting monsters with a shovel was not those things. Do you suppose the dungeon monster will mind if you set up a tent somewhere inside? At least you’re out of the elements that way.

Since you’ve got nowhere to live and pretty much nothing better to do, I guess you may as well start combing through dungeons and helping other produce people with their problems in hopes of clearing some of that debt. Unfortunately, he got caught and now owes a ton to these moustachioed criminals officials. Turnip Boy may have kind of, sort of not paid taxes to some sketchy government vegetables for a little while. I really can’t think of a better way to use your debt, honestly.
