Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion Reviews
Lasting a few fun hours, Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion is a simple but effective Zelda-like adventure in a colourful veggie-filled dystopia. However, this salad dodger’s gameplay is derivative of dozens of other better games, and it doesn’t really do anything to explore its novel concept.
Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion will likely attract an audience thanks to its cute graphical style and bizarre yet humorous premise. It does feel like it could have done with a little more content and the meme humour is likely to be hit or miss for some people. But if you’re looking for something short and sweet this is a good title to pass the time with before your next intensive gaming project. Just don’t expect it to teach you anything about Taxes.
Looking at the whole, Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion scores many points for its creativity, which oozes humor with its characters, situations and dialogues. These circumstances, coupled with beautiful visuals and interesting challenges, generate an extremely kind journey, which enchants even with the very short expiration date. So, evading taxes and tearing up declarations are activities so fun that they make me recommend them.

Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion is a very fun metroidvania for all players, with a curious story that will last us 3 hours if we are very complete, which perfectly mixes various musical styles with a sensational Pixel-Art aspect.

All in all, it’s a fun little diversion where you can pay off your debts while beating up some vegetarians along the way.
Committing tax evasion in the UK is illegal and punishable by fine or imprisonment. So too is asking Switch players to use B to select items in a menu, but for the purpose of this review, I’m willing to go forgo any penalties against Snoozy Kazoo – the development team behind Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion.
While it’s unfortunate that the entire playtime is quite short, the enriched story plot and light puzzle elements make the time worthwhile. It was fun to engage an expanding world during progression, as well as the well constructed campaign so that the players don’t have to experience repetitive aspects within the game. For those who want to spend a productive 1 to 2 hours of gaming, this is the one for you.

Turnip Boy is a fun character. We don’t know why he’s such a prick, he just is. He rips up love letters, commits bloody murder, and for some reason he hates taxes. 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!
Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion is as weird as it sounds, and certainly not without faults, but is nonetheless a solid, bite-sized, 2D Zelda-inspired experience.
Just from its pretty unusual title you could guess this will be a bit of an oddball ride, and though its length and depth are a little lacking there's no doubt that Turnip Boy and his many associates bring a unique flavor to mostly traditional play...
Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion is a fun experience with some really solid writing, but the gameplay base doesn't do anything other games have done better.
