Is Sackboy one of PlayStation's most beloved protagonists? Well, yes, somewhat. The character certainly has his fans thanks to the appeal of the LittleBigPlanet series. However, it's still surprising to see the fabric-based fella ranked above the likes of God of War and Demon's Souls.

This spinoff game switches up the mainline series' formula significantly to deliver a simple linear platforming game. For starters, it's presented in 3D rather than the franchise's standard 2.5D. The game also doesn't feature Create Mode, a typical staple of the LittleBigPlanet games.

While it is a surprise to see this game ranking so high, there's no denying that Sackboy: A Big Adventure is a delightful title. It has a lot to offer, most of all being the luscious art style that continues the hand-crafted aesthetic of the mainline games.

The level design is impressive, with each stage offering a varied experience with new gameplay challenges and visual motifs. It was also built for co-op play, which helps to add an additional element of fun.

Overall, it is a little janky and might be above its station here, but it's a highly enjoyable game nonetheless.
