Crime Girl

Great little game! Picked it up on sale a while back and I've had a lot of fun with it. Great little game for when you want something simple, but challenging.

Using the grapple hook you can deftly hook enemies from below, climb along the ceiling to avoid floor hazards, and feel like Spider-Man if Spider-Man had more fashion sense and did crimes. Along the way are plenty of power-ups to pick up - I had found about 4 or 5 different shields during my playthroughs with some granting additional abilities like low gravity and emerald magnetism. If you are able to maintain a shield and full health during the run you are showered with emeralds at each treasure chest. Unless you're me, who proceeds to lose the magnet shield as soon as they pick it up. Oops. The enemy types are a-plenty, and they will trip you up. While your recourses for taking them down are hitting them with your hook or boppin' 'em on the head, some will ta...
