How Long Does It Take To Beat Antonblast?

Nintendo may not have bothered with the Wario Land series or formula since 2008, but indies have been doing a stellar job at bringing them back. Last year, we saw Pizza Tower burst onto the scene and now it's Antonblast's turn.

Just like Pizza Tower, Antonblast takes Wario Land's formula and puts its own spin on it - literally, since Anton brings over plenty of Crash Bandicoot vibes. It's a true smorgasbord of platforming ideas and one that's well worth your time. But how much time exactly?<script> googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('adsninja-ad-unit-1707942439796-6115d5692e6734'); }); </script>

How Long Does It Take To Beat?

Antonblast is made up of 19 stages in total, with each one tasking you with collecting one of Anton's prized Spirits. The platforming stages vary in length but take anywhere between 10 and 20 minutes to complete your first time around, assuming you're just going for the exit and aren't scouring the area for collectibles.

It's worth noting that Antonblast is a fairly difficult game, especially in the later stages, which will effect how long it takes you to beat. Aside from the final boss, I managed to beat most levels without too much slowdown.

Around eight of Antonblast's stages are actually boss battles, although only <script> googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('adsninja-ad-unit-1707942439796-6115d5692e6734'); }); </script>of them are considered proper bosses while the others are shorter encounters. These are the game's main skillchecks and might take a bit longer to beat as you learn their specific patterns. It took me around 20 to 30 minutes for each of the game's bosses.

Overall, without spending much time trying to get every collectible (more on that true struggle in a minute), it took me around eight hours to beat Antonblast for the first time, although that was as someone who regularly plays platformers, so it could reasonably take up to 10 hours.

As is the case with most platformers, just getting through each level once is barely scratching the surface of Antonblast. Aside from the boss battles, every stage in the game has three hidden collectibles to find, including a spray paint can for skins, a cassette that unlocks music tracks, and another collectible that seems to be for bragging rights

.

Each platforming stage in Antonblast also has an optional time trial and score attack variant to beat. As you can imagine, these get pretty tough and add even more playtime.

While you might pick some of the collectibles up with ease, almost all of them are devilishly hidden and require a lot of effort to collect

. You'll need to master each stage in order to find everything, which really adds to the time it'll take to fully complete Antonblast outside of just rushing through the levels.

I'm still in the process of finding everything, but in total, it'll take anywhere between 18 and 25 hours to find every collectible in the game without using guides

. That might sound like a big leap, but the collectibles truly are that tough to spot and figure out how to unlock. Of course, if you're using guides (such as our own at TheGamer), that'll cut things down considerably.<script> googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('adsninja-ad-unit-1707942439796-6115d5692e6734'); }); </script>✕ Remove Ads
