The real highlight is exploration: backtracking with new abilities to find secrets is excellent, though a map would have helped near the end for completionists like me.

Combat is a dex-build delight, and features an ever-growing range of techniques and abilities which are always useful and never overwhelming.

The narrative is non-verbal and on the reserved side, but the world-building is genuinely unique, inventive, and consistently surprising and delightful.

The game sports beautiful visuals, satisfying sound design, and a fully-realized style and aesthetic all its own.

If you're someone who is good at video games though, you should play at the very highest difficulty level.

The map is exceedingly colorful and coherently designed, runs very smoothly, the controls are accurate, but a controller (Steam-Controllsr works great btw.) is the better option than a keyboard.
