Jupiter & Mars Reviews

Dolphins were my absolute favorite animals as a child. I studied all about the different species, characteristics, and habitats across the world.

Jupiter and Mars, developer Tigerton’s first PS4 game, is the aquatic journey of a pair of dolphins to save the world from on-going damage presumably

Taking control as the former of the two titular dolphins, you'll be making a splash in an effort to restore the natural order of the ocean. That's a pretty big mission, but by the time the credits roll, you'll probably wish there was more to it.
