Demon Turf is a highly enjoyable if sometimes flawed 3d adventure platformer starring Beebz, a young demon who seeks to overthrow the Demon King. This oddball game takes you across various challenging platforming stages, worlds, and hub areas, with plenty of minigames and collectibles along the way. Demon Turf pays loving homage to classics such as Super Mario 64 and Banjo-Kazooie.

While the game does a great job of teaching you the ropes early on, there are still a number of gameplay features and mechanics that aren’t always well explained. Demon Turf offers a lot more depth and nuance than you might think when first starting out so here are the things to know when jumping in.

7 How To Navigate The World

Demon Turf has a semi-open explorable world where you traverse from your home hub area of Forktown to the various demon districts via warp areas or via fast travel. It can be quite confusing when first starting out in Forktown due to many interconnected paths.

First and foremost on your priority list should be to walk around Forktown, getting used to the shops, characters, and various warp points. After you are familiar with this main area, move on to the branching pathways at the back of Forktown which lead you to the worlds where the platforming stages are.

6 Planning Your Platforming

Beebz, the main character in the game, has a massive arsenal of maneuvers, similar to that of Mario from his 3d outings. During your time playing you will have to get to grips with the likes of jumping, double jumping, spin jumping, wall jumping, plus many others. While these may not sound that unique, the controls in Demon Turf take some getting used to since they aren’t always that responsive.

There are many tight platforming sections in this game and one wrong move could mean you are sent back to your last checkpoint. The best tip to keep in mind is that you can do a regular jump, followed by a spin, followed by another jump to get the most distance.

5 Utilize Your Camera

Did you know that Demon Turf has a photography mode? This fully-featured “minigame” allows you to take on photography requests from the photography shop in Forktown. By taking on photo quests you can earn sweets to unlock cosmetic goodies for Beebz amongst other things. You can also access the quests from your main menu.

In order to open up the camera, all you have to do is press a quick button. Once you open it up, simply find the quest locations or target and snap those photos. You can then take them back to the shop to redeem for goodies. Oh, you can even unlock a cool pet to bring with you.

4 Explore Every Nook And Cranny

Demon Turf is a substantial game with many large areas to explore. While you might be tempted to just head to the next world to complete the stage to get the ever-important batteries, it’s highly encouraged to explore every inch of the game world.

Through exploring you can find quirky characters to talk to, minigames to play such as demon soccer, and locations for photography quests. Also, once you are in a stage, you can press down on the left thumbstick on a controller to point you in the direction of the collectible cake pieces.

3 Understanding Your Attack Abilities

Combat in Demon Turf is unlike most other similar platformers. In other 3d platformers you generally encounter baddies all over a stage and you either jump on them or punch them. However, in Demon Turf, combat only takes place in designated combat zones.

Beebz attacks via these power punches that shoot out from her hands but can also be charged up for a much stronger pushback attack Alternatively, Beebz can do a spin attack to stun enemies. You can acquire items down the line such as a grapple to pull shields off the enemies for easy attacks. Basically, get used to trying new combat strategies to stay alive longer.

2 Prioritize Mods For Beebz

One of the most useful and enjoyable parts of Demon Turf is actually really easy to miss. You can interact with a mummy character in Forktown named Nubi. Nubi offers Beebz mods in return for the cake piece collectibles you find in each stage. Each stage generally has three for you to find.

Mods in Demon Turf work similar to badges in the Paper Mario series, whereby each one has a specific cost and you can equip as many as you would like up until the cost bar is filled up. Also, Nubi offers a training area so you can try out each mod prior to purchasing it. The best ones to get early on are triple jump and faster movement.

1 Boss Battles Are Multi-Staged

Okay, slight spoiler warning, the boss battles in Demon Turf are multi-staged and quite lengthy. Fortunately, if and when you do die, given the punishing nature of the controls during these battles, you restart at the previous boss battles stage. These battles typically have you utilize all of the skills and items you have received thus far.

Make sure that you are well equipped with good mods for Beebz, ones that will help you outmaneuver the boss. These boss encounters will usually consist of some combat component mixed with some platforming so get ready to be on your A-game.
