ToeJam & Earl: Back in the Groove Reviewed by Cyril Lachel on . If you're expecting this to be more of a reboot or remake of the original, then ToeJam & Earl: Back in the Groove will most likely satisfy. If you're hoping for a genuine sequel that builds on the characters and formula, then I have a hunch you're going to be left disappointed. This brand-new installment not only looks and plays a lot like the 1991 original, but it also shares most of the same problems. It's fun with friends and offers a laidback vibe you don't see in a lot of co-op games, but it's also shallow to a fault. There's not enough to do and the 25 stages can be easily beaten in your first or second try. ToeJam & Earl: Back in the Groove is an example of a retro resurrection that shoots itself in the foot by playing it too safe. Rating: 64%
