About Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair
About this game
Join heroes Yooka and Laylee as they return for a new platform hybrid adventure in Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair. With this Steam PC key, you'll follow the quirky duo on a new mission to stop arch-nemesis Capital B.
HE'S AT IT AGAIN!
That dastardly villain Capital B is up to no good, his latest evil masterplan is to use a 'Hivemind' device to enslave an entire kingdom of bees. With the help of Queen Phoebee and her Royal Beetallion, you'll lead Yooka and Laylee into CB's 'Impossible Lair' in an attempt to thwart his evil plans.
2.5D IS THE PLACE TO BE
Enjoy a new yet retro perspective in Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair. Unlike the original Yooka-Laylee title, you'll explore 2.5D platform levels - each offering beautiful, rich visuals with detail and depth.
A NEW HUB
Head to the 3D Overworld, another new feature in Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair, which is much more than just a hub to hop from level to level. Explore and unlock more 2D levels by completing objectives and puzzles in the Overworld, rescue the Royal Beetallion bees and find collectibles.
ALTERNATE STATE
Once you've mastered a level, go back and experience again with a range of alternate level states. Flip switches in the Overworld hub to create new landscapes - hook up electricity, submerge them in water, freeze or flip them upside down for radically modified challenges!
KNOW WHEN TO STRIKE (OR STING)
Feel free to tackle Capital B’s Impossible Lair at any time, but be warned as you may find it too much of a challenge without the help of the Royal Beetallion. Help free them by completing levels and add them to your defenses when planning your attack on Capital B’s traps!
YOUR OFFICIAL YOOKA-LAYLEE AND THE IMPOSSIBLE LAIR STEAM PC KEY GIVES YOU:
- Rich visuals and colorful worlds to explore
- 2.5D platforming levels with a 3D Overworld hub
- The latest installment in the adventure platformer series
- Developed by key creative talent behind 'Donkey Kong Country'

Controls slow and clunks, with unresponsive and unsatisfying movement. Key elements ruin the platforming experience.

From homage to Banjo Kazooie to Donkey Kong Country (Returns), once again with the original composers. With an interesting take that has been popularized since Breath of the Wild - The possibility to attempt the "Impossible Lair" at any point in the game. The level system is brilliantly designed: Each level beaten will provide you with additional support in the Impossible Lair. Each level also has its own alternate version, all of which can be unlocked through overworld puzzles, similar to Super Mario 3D World but better. The currency from levels can be used to modify your gameplay experience. The movement is slick but I would have preferred a little more control over my speed.

Dismiss the first title in the series, this is a great 2.5D side scroller akin of the newer games in the DKC series with lots of collectibles.
Nice art style, tight controls and good level design, with the gimmick of being able to play the title's "impossible lair" right from the start - a challenge for experienced players.
