Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
73 of 270 sampled reviews raised it
I love the Soulslike mechanics and vibe (dying, losing currency, enemies respawning on rest, etc.).
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
67 of 270 sampled reviews raised it
I love two-dimensional dungeon crawlers with a focus on careful positioning during combat.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
34 of 270 sampled reviews raised it
The game is fun, it doesn't last more than it should (100% + all achievements in under 10h without using any guides, albeit I got lucky with some of the achievements) and it's not super easy while also not being too hard (I'm not a soulslike guy, so that's a big plus for me),
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
17 of 270 sampled reviews raised it
Highly recommend of you're looking for a game that's less than 10 hours, has the art style of the original Legend of Zelda, and is a notch down in difficulty from the dark souls games.
Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.

First and for most, works on the Steam Deck, so it should work on the Steam Box when it is released.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
9 of 270 sampled reviews raised it
I also love the inclusion of co-op and the ease with which one can co-op, as the thought of a co-op game in the style of The Legend of Zelda floored us.
