What players think
The recurring themes across 42 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
It also has a very good length, I reached the ending in 15 hours, then spent few more to reach 100%, but it never felt repetitive since the good variety of enemies, weapons and gimmicks (plus some boss encounters) never failed to keep the game fresh and interesting.
Great game, I've always liked this type of puzzles where the character moves like sliding on ice so finding an entire game entirely dedicated to them made me very happy, and even more happy when I realized how good the game is, combining clever standalone puzzles with the satisfying exploration and progression of a Metroidvania.
Slinding Hero captures the player with its minimalistic and intuitive mechanics, not to mention its stunning visuals: from the sharp Hades-esque character art to the retro-style pixel art of the overworld, this game really is a joy to watch.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
