February 24, 2012 - Good - The mechanics are solid, the quest is meaty, the graphics and animation are beautiful, and the world is a pure pleasure to spend time in. Plus, we're talking about a game based on the voyage of discovery of a badass little girl with an octopus for an arm - what's not to like?

January 25, 2012 - Good - ScaryGirl looks great and plays well, even if enemy gangs cause cheap hits and target-based switches are annoying to hit. If you like a challenge, love finding collectables, and want a constantly evolving journey through 21 platforming levels, give ScaryGirl a chance. It rides that old-school balance of fun and frustrating down to the final boss fight.
