I can’t imagine it’s a philosophy many boars would adhere to, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Full Bore’s main characters (Frederick and Hildi) treated the phrase as gospel. Regardless of which mud-loving oink you decide to play as - they both have the same story - in Whole Hog Games’ puzzle/platformer, you’re going to quickly find yourself out of luck and put to work in a mine where things just aren’t quite right."

Upon choosing your boar-tagonist (okay, that is the one and only boar pun) immediately after the title screen you wonder off into the meadow. Feeling the soft sensation of flowers beneath your hooves, you find yourself suddenly falling deep underground, after hidden mines create a gapping hole in the middle of the Zen-like environment."

"Full bore has humor, charm, and a slight bit of social commentary a la George Orwell’s “Animal Farm”, and it has its satisfying puzzles and exploration elements. It has 16 bit nostalgia appeal and catchy, memorable music. It also has a tendency of leading you to get lost a little too often when searching for solutions to a puzzle or an exit, and the controls can be atrocious at times."
