Antonblast review – the unofficial Wario Land 5 The second Wario Land homage of recent years tries to outdo Pizza Tower in terms of overly angry protagonists that destroy everything in their path.
It’s 17 years since Nintendo released a new Wario Land game and even longer since the series’ heyday on the Game Boy.
Antonblast takes most of its cues from Wario Land 4 on the Game Boy Advance, but you absolutely don’t need to have played that game to appreciate it.
If you’re not familiar with the Wario Land series, the first one was actually Super Mario Land 3.
‘Dynamite’ Anton looks more like Yosemite Sam than Wario and has a similar temperament, although you can also play as his roommate Annie if you prefer.
