#TURNIP BOY COMMITS TAX EVASION XBOX PC#
But at least I was able to tear up every single document I found on the way, and told that greedy, overreaching government to fuck right off.On-demand gaming platform Xbox Game Pass hosts over 100 games that players can access on PC and Xbox with a subscription to the service. I’ve fought Conductor Onion more than a dozen times and every time, he gives me a good beating and sends me back to the beginning of the train. Maybe that’s enough for some, but it feels inconsequential here when much of the loop remains barely altered. The Sunset Station expansion, however, is really just more of the same flavoring.
I wouldn’t call Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion’s base game the freshest vegetable in the bunch, but it’s absolutely the funniest one around. I really liked having a healing item, and one that inflicted massive fire DoTs on all nearby, unfortunate foes. Some variety comes in the form of trinkets you unlock to add to the random item pool, and if you find the right trinket, a run can play somewhat differently. The repeated boss clashes can get pretty old pretty fast, what with the tedium of running through car after car just to battle enemies you’ve fought in the base game. I don’t know how many times Conductor Onion is supposed to come back before the Limitless Line reaches its end (if it has one) and it’s not like he’s going to let that happen anyway. But even if you manage to defeat him, a few cars later Conductor Onion just comes back stronger, like some stereotypical anime supervillain. He follows you around the crowded car, slashing with purpose and quickness. This dude, with his sharp katana and sharper shuriken, is a total menace. The Limitless Line’s real challenge comes in its ultimate battle with Conductor Onion. However, the expansion’s enhancements do add a brief whiff of difficulty.
It can feel monotonous, especially since their battle tactics don’t change much from what you’ve learned from the base game. As you make your way through the endless dungeon, you’ll run into the game’s three main bosses. You also only get one life you start over from the train’s beginning if you die, regardless of how far you’ve made it. On the Limitless Line, you can only heal through occasional hearts left by vanquished foes. In the end, Turnip Boy gets his shit back and tells the government to fuck all the way off. The game’s not that long, and it ends with a clash of god-like proportions (literally) with a government official. Though mostly an action game in which you battle animals such as bunnies and pigs, Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion also features some light lock-and-key puzzling, that has you finding this thing to unlock that thing to do this other thing - and repeating this process for a couple of hours. This is not only the narrative setup for Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion, but also the game’s entire premise: helping our little hero get his shit back.īut in order to reclaim Turnip Boy’s property and freedom, you must perform some nonsensical tasks for Mayor Onion, like finding radioactive goop, and a fork. If the government owns your labour and property, it’s almost like they own your soul. Turnip Boy also becomes Mayor Onion’s errand veggie. Turnip Boy hasn’t paid property taxes on his house and, as a result, the government repossesses it. It feels pretty damn good.ĭeveloped by Snoozy Kazoo and originally released in April, Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion is a dungeon-crawling RPG-lite in which you play as a rutabaga ready to do crimes with a smile. While I can’t say I learned anything about tax evasion playing this adorable 2D action game - don’t do it, I guess? - what I did walk away with was the satisfaction of giving the middle finger to the federal, uh, legumeverment.
With a name like Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion, I was hoping to learn a thing or two about taxes, government regulation, and the ways in which the system fundamentally screws people out of money and property.
