Super Lucky's Tale is a 3D platformer video game developed by Playful
Studios and published by Microsoft Studios for Microsoft Windows and
Xbox One. It is the sequel to Lucky's Tale, a virtual reality 3D
platformer for the Oculus Rift. The game was released as a launch
title for the Xbox One X on November 7, 2017. The game is featured as
part of the Play Anywhere program. It was announced during the Xbox
presentation at E3 2017. In March 2018, the game became part of Xbox
Game Pass.An expanded version of the game titled New Super Lucky's
Tale for Nintendo Switch was revealed on the Nintendo Direct live
stream at E3 2019 on June 11, 2019 and released on November 8, 2019.
This same version was eventually announced for PlayStation 4 and Xbox
One on August 21, 2020 with a surprise release on Microsoft Windows on
the same date.Super Lucky's Tale's gameplay has been described as
reminiscent of 90's-era 3D platformers such as Banjo-Kazooie, Crash
Bandicoot and Super Mario 64. Each of the game's five worlds is
presented with its own hub, where each individual level can be
accessed. The hubs are levels themselves, with coins to collect and
some basic platforming required to reach new areas. Each hub has
around five main levels, and a number of additional puzzles to
complete. The goal of each of these levels is to collect clovers,
which enable Lucky to take back control of the Book of Ages from Jinx.
Each level has four clovers to find â€" one for completing the level,
one for collecting 300 coins, one for finding the five letters that
spell "LUCKY", and one 'secret' clover, which is usually in a hidden
area of the level, or by completing a short time challenge.The levels
themselves offer a variety of platforming challenges. Some are 3D
arenas with non-linear progression. Others feature 2D side-scrolling.
There are also several mini-levels in each world, including
Sokoban-style puzzles and mazes where Lucky is trapped in a marble and
has to be guided to an exit. Finally, there are several boss fights
featuring the Kitty Litter and Jinx.
