Vexx was one of the few games I figured how to play without knowing English and being so young, I was probably five when I had the chance to play and it was so interesting the sounds, the style, the day and night cycle, the portals, the powers everything sounded so unique and fun to play! It was sad to grow up and discover it was labeled as a "Mario rip-off". It was one of my favorites at the time for sure!

I remember playing this game back in my childhood, it was one of my favourite games on the PS2, Vexx is a truly unique 3D platforming game that presents a great amount of challenge, in my opinion, its what you get if you combined Super Mario 64 and dark souls together, I love almost everything from this game from the story, worlds, creatures and the game mechanics. This game has a truly special place in my heart, as I get older, I revisit this game only having joy and appreciation that a game like this was made and I got to grow up with it in my happiest moments of life.
