Time-trial platformer Action Henk leaps to consoles this summer

Beards for all

Action Henk has been described as Sonic the Hedgehog meets Trials. I don’t disagree.

It’s a platformer in which toys race across building blocks, slide down plastic orange car tracks, and grapple hook over the floor (because it is, indeed, lava). I gave the Steam version a seven out of ten, noting that the movement felt fantastic but there wasn’t enough variation in the level designs.

The game is now destined for consoles, and I hope more of you consider checking it out. Curve Digital and developer RageSquid are bringing Action Henk to Wii U, Xbox One, PS3, PS4, and PS Vita later this summer. Also, yes, the PlayStation versions will support Cross-Buy.
