Platformer where you're a wisecracking ottsel working pest control in Haven City. Daxter takes extermination jobs—swatting and spraying bug-like creatures across rooftops, sewers, and palace halls—while half-heartedly searching for his captured buddy. You'll jump between platforms, solve gadget puzzles with tools like spray guns and electric swatters, and tackle combat encounters against increasingly aggressive pests. The game mixes standard 3D platforming with minigames and light story missions that eventually lead to infiltrating a fortress. Expect frequent jokes, cartoon violence, and a tone that doesn't take itself seriously. Environments shift from industrial districts to fancy estates, all rendered in the series' stylized look. If you want a portable platformer with personality and don't mind a story that's mostly setup for other games, this delivers solid jumping and spraying for several hours.
