Tomba 2 The Evil Swine Returns to PC
If you don’t care about the ethics behind the company, you can buy this one, you can also buy the previous one that got published by them some months ago too. We may not see a Tomba 3 any time soon, and to think this game was planned makes everyone from my generation very sad, it would have been an amazing title for the PS2 had the game released and Sony gave any support to this studio. Originality is a thing that the industry struggles with now, and the beautiful era of the 90s was hit after hit, Tomba 2 The Evil Swine Return is an excellent encapsulation of 90s wackiness.
