After completing the main story in about 7 hours on Normal difficulty, I can say it was a very enjoyable experience overall.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
56 of 183 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay-wise, the puzzles strike a nice balance — not too easy, not too hard — and the game doesn’t hold your hand too much, which I really appreciate.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
27 of 183 sampled reviews raised it
It’s a beautiful action-adventure with a unique and gorgeous art style, but what really blows me away is the music, the soundtrack is an absolute highlight for me and fits every moment perfectly.​
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
26 of 183 sampled reviews raised it
A special shout-out to the final boss, which was a great challenge and easily the highlight of the combat.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
22 of 183 sampled reviews raised it
Difficulty on "Normal" is good, maybe a bit on the easier side for some gamers, but don't worry, on hard mode the bosses can be very challenging.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
20 of 183 sampled reviews raised it
The game’s pixel art is gorgeous and the sound design is fantastic, even if some sounds strongly reminded me of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and older Pokémon games.
