Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
18 of 95 sampled reviews raised it
The voice acting and soundtrack give the story real weight, making emotional moments hit harder, while Aferi himself stands out as one of the most memorable villains I’ve seen in an indie game—surprisingly dark, with genuine stakes behind his corruption.

I spent almost 30 hours with the pre-release build of Altheia: The Wrath of Aferi (though the main adventure is closer to 15), and it completely hooked me from start to finish.The cel-shaded visuals are gorgeous, the puzzles are clever and consistently rewarding, and the dual-character mechanics with Lili and Sadi add a fresh twist that even longtime Zelda fans will appreciate.
Graphics

Plus, the art style is gorgeous - it's a pleasure just to run about and look around sometimes.
