Games Asylum: "This 2.5D side-scrolling platformer may have a name akin to something Ned Flanders would say, but had it launched in the ‘90s it would doubtlessly be called something lame like Max the Mongoose. That’s because our heroes here are a pair of high-spirited mongooses, known as Niko and Luna – not Niko and Riko, as the game’s name may suggest. After Niko’s airship crashes on a mystical island, they find themselves confronted by burly bipedal snake-men who, amongst other things, wish to drain the world’s oceans to create a giant desert. And you thought the snake-like villains in GI Joe and Masters of the Universe were up to no good."`
