Late Review“Tiny Terry's Turbo Trip is a hilariously heartfelt sandbox adventure that simplifies the genre's scope to pack a mightier punch. Everything is purposeful in the search for its collectathon gameplay and the world is a joy to explore, making it a tiny but terry-fic trip.”

Late Review“It may be short, but it offers a well thought out and crafted experience, the freedom to dive in and explore at your own pace, while offering enough to do that your time with it won’t start to bore.”

Late Review“Tiny Terry’s Turbo Trip was a gem to play, and has absolutely won me over, despite a few minor niggles. I was getting Anodyne 2 vibes in how the humour connected with me, and the sense of a truly unique world designed unto its own rules, a great little title – I’m looking forward to seeing what the studio brings us next!”

Late Review“Tiny Terry's Turbo Trip is a very special game. The simple outline of the story is entertaining and the way the game goes about telling it with its jarring obtuse jokes is unique. The blank stares of the characters and chaotic manner of events create a creative and impactful experience. An unruly camera and dreadful framerate seem minuscule in the presence of superb and effective gameplay. Tiny Terry's Turbo Trip draws you in with its novelty and silliness, but holds you with its charm and joyous disposition, making this high-speed trip with the adorable Terry a noteworthy adventure that all should partake in.”

Late Review“Terry's bite-sized, open world adventure is absurdly hilarious and hilariously absurd in equal measure, providing a few, thrilling hours of goofy fun with some of the best video game comedy in recent memory. If you missed this on PC last year, now's your chance on PS5 and Switch.”

Late Review“Tiny Terry’s Turbo Trip isn’t long, complex, challenging, or highly original in its mechanics, but it avoids mediocrity thanks to the sum of its parts. While not groundbreaking on its own, it delivers a concentrated dose of fun and eccentricity. Guiding Terry’s celestial ambitions entertains with its simplicity and marked humor. A light, easygoing title perfect for a few hours of smiles. Just a tip: don’t forget sunscreen!”

Late Review“The writing is genuinely amusing, the story rather sweet, and the slapstick physics plenty of fun to engage with. Only some minor technical hiccups interrupt the otherwise smooth gameplay, and while finding the last remaining collectibles can be difficult (even aided by a special Junk-detecting hat), the game succeeds due to its brevity and playful tone.”

Late Review“Even though it's short, Tiny Terry's Turbo Trip manages to be remarkable with its non-sense humor, compact and well-used open world and, above all, for the construction of a universe endowed with lightness, interesting characters and a good dose of silliness so precious especially in these times when everything is taken too seriously.”

Late Review“From the characters' squawking voices to their amusing dialogue, Tiny Terry's Turbo Trip is a joyful vacation to a nonsensical playground where its small world is your oyster. The Switch performance isn't perfect, but for a game with a fair bit of jank built in, it didn't detract from the experience. At a time when the desire for escapism is at its highest, I'll gladly recommend a trip to Sprankelwater for the best medicine that money can buy.”

Launch Window“There are so many games in the zeitgeist that focus on offering the most realistic or the most refined and polished experience on the market, but often this can be to the detriment of fun. Tiny Terry's Turbo Trip knows this all too well, focusing solely on bringing the fun factor. It's a love letter to successful mascot platformers of old while offering some much-needed fan service to the kid-friendly GTA-clone sub-genre that gave us The Simpsons Hit and Run and Lego City Undercover. It's not a game that's going to change your life, but it's a wonderful, action-packed romp that just might make a lazy afternoon a little more memorable.”

Launch Window“Tiny Terry's Turbo Trip is not for everybody. This is not a massive open world with a ton of complex systems and a variety of objectives. The game is focused on getting Terry and his car into space. The town is small but serves a concentrated dose of positive weirdness and mini-games.”
