I like the gameplay but it is not a very long game.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
25 of 186 sampled reviews raised it
The sad thing is that the game is actually polished - there are no bugs, no sudden difficulty curve swerves, the enemies are placed thoughtfully, there is some quality-of-life here and there (e.g. when you defeat a boss, you don't have to backtrack - you just get teleported back to the dungeon entrance).
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
22 of 186 sampled reviews raised it
Shipwreck embraces a colorful pixel-art style heavily inspired by classic portable gaming adventures from earlier generations.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
21 of 186 sampled reviews raised it
The sound design remains understated but effective, supporting exploration and dungeon crawling without becoming distracting or repetitive.
