Nikoderiko: The Magical World must first of all be appreciated for the courage of wanting to bring an increasingly less covered genre to the foreground, namely the platformer. Unfortunately, in this respect, the guys at VEA Games did not pay due attention to the gameplay mechanics: gliding instead of the double jump and an overly generous sliding attack do not allow the title to rise to higher ratings, while still remaining a experience to give a chance.
