Thomas Astruc participated in the production of the game as he posted his old Clonika drawing in July 2023.

Consequently, it is aimed towards younger gamers, so it won't receive any major plaudits. However, my children enjoyed it, even if I found it to be flawed. With colourful graphics, interesting stage design, and the right blend of casual action, this will entertain the youngsters in your house.

As the story wears on, each of the heroes learns new abilities that’ll open otherwise unreachable areas. Subsequently, you are expected to revisit earlier stages to find each collectable and improve that chapter’s score. These abilities create new paths or help you to overcome an array of obstacles. Moreover, this was an interesting way to expand each level and something that stood out amongst the otherwise flat and lifeless elements.

In many ways, of course, but pertinently when it comes to video games, kids deserve better. Miraculous: Rise of the Sphinx is just the latest in an ever-growing line of games based on children’s franchises that has no redeeming qualities whatsoever. This is a terrible game, existing only on the merits of the animated series that came before it.

The platforming itself is actually serviceable. Whether you’re in charge of Ladybug or Cat Noir – you can switch between them on the fly – they’re smooth and responsive, each with a double-jump, making them swift and spritely when jumping from rooftop to rooftop. The level designs are passable too: they all take place in Paris, but different obstacles make each level feel unique. One will see the city littered with giant books to climb upon, for example. And another is music-themed, filled with giant instruments such as guitars and drums. More Villains! Come face to face with familiar villains Hawk Moth, Gamer, Weredad, and Mr. Pigeon, and some new enemies too! If you are young enough to enjoy the inane action, you won’t want it to end. Accordingly, younger players will be happy to explore the hidden areas. Furthermore, there are plenty of macaroons to locate and loads of orbs to collect. Alongside this, the whole story can be enjoyed cooperatively in a local setting. Therefore, a parent and child can play together, or 2 siblings can help each other to defeatHawkMoth. This was a great approach that made this a fun, albeit problematic, family title. Miraculous: Rise of the Sphinx is great for kids.

During the de-evilization sequence after the defeat of the Sphinx, an akuma appears instead of an amok. Take control of Ladybug and Cat Noir, jump and collect macaroons and other collectibles as you platform through the Paris rooftops, battle evilized bad guys and take on bosses as you uncover the sinister plot of the archvillain Hawk Moth.

Usually, the developers throw together some show-related scenes, while incorporating familiar characters and landmarks. Now, this may seem like a copout, because it normally is. Thankfully, though, Miraculous: Rise of the Sphinx has a unique story, and many of the levels are surreal and unusual. This was great, as it kept things interesting, even though each chapter was painfully short. On top of this, I liked the stark imagery within the cutscenes and the vivid colour palette. Disappointingly, however, the game has a terrible frame rate and the action particularly stutters to a stop. This was noticeable during cutscenes and in the central hub. Yet, when fighting Weredad, it is beyond a joke. This was a terrible example of modern gaming and one that is unforgivable in 2022.Team Up!

There are events in the game placing the game both before and after " The Battle of the Miraculous", " Miraculous New York", and " Truth" and " Lies": One of Soundwave's lines, "It's all about that bass, kiddos", references the song "All About That Bass" by Meghan Trainor.
