Lots of us have fond memories of the action-adventure platformers of yesteryear, especially those that rose to popularity on the PlayStation 2/Xbox/GameCube. Second Stone: The Legend of the Hidden World aims to recapture that specific game feel and structure (among other things) while putting those game elements in the context of modern presentation. While the game still has a ways to go before release, we were very impressed with the work that the title's very small Finnish team has done to date, so check out all of our pre-release impressions and see if you should put Second Stone on your radar.
