Is this game worth it?
I'm wanting to have a good game and I'm interested in this one but I'm thinking it doesn't have enough hours in gameplay. I want around 100+

It's typically 12-15 hours long (depending on if you go for the collectibles). Picnic Panic free DLC adds a few more hours to that. Definitely not 100+ hours long.

Well if you want 100 hours this game doesn't come anywhere close, so no? Took me 15.

Totally totally worth it. Its a 8 ~30 hour , depending on how good you are and for how much %
you re going for.
Its certainly aint the 100+ you re lookin for , but its sure a hell of a ride.
For me personally this game is a gem!

You want to have around 100+ hours of gameplay in a platformer game? Can you even imagine how much work devs will have to do to create sooo many levels? If you want to have 100+ hours in a platformer game, you should try I wanna be the Boshy.

Honestly if a platformer had that much playtime in a single run I wouldn't wanna play it. The play time for platformers come from replayability. Megaman 9 and 10 take me less than 30 mins (in game time) and Mighty Gunvolt Burst takes me around 40 mins (real time) BUT I probably have over 1000 hours on 9 and 10 since I have been playing them at least once a day since their release.

I have over 70 hours in New Super Mario Bros 2 a 3DS game that can be completed in under 2 hours if you speedrun.

I just started this game and it will probably take me 20 hours to beat it since I'm struggling on the early stages.

It's too long. The platforming really starts to get on your nerves by the end of the game.

MegaMan would take me 100 hours and I had the original on NeS never finished it lol

For a really enjoyable 100 hour game nothing like this, check out Everspace.

when will people get that hours of gameplay doesn't matter. You don't rate a movie by how it's long, saying "I want at least 4 hours director's cut version or no deal".
The Messenger is one of the best games from 2018 and it's length is perfect for the kind of game it is. So yes, it's worth it, although it's far from 100 hours.

This, replaying this game just gives to you a harder difficult and you keep all your skills and items, but difficult keeps growing in each new + run, i have 100+ hours in this game and i still didnt realized the challenge to overpass the devs record (+7 as they say), so I could say its absolutely worth
