Story

95 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There was one point early in the game where the narrative dialogue felt like it went on too long, but it was an overall fun addition that made the game feel like a genuine story unraveling as you went along.

As such, exploration is definitely not only encouraged, but indeed should be considered mandatory to the experience.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
49 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
My favorite thing about the dungeons is that there’s two boss fights to them instead of one, so I know there’s plenty of fun combat to go around alongside the puzzles.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

I would recommend this to anyone who enjoyed Zelda: A Link To The Past and also to anyone who likes action RPG games in general, especially if they are into the 16 bit pixel art style.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The sounds are also great; the chiptune style music is a fun callback to zeldas of old, and the sound effects, particularly when charging the sword and pulling off a jump attack, have some weight to them.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
21 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I would probably recommend a controller of some kind to get the most fun out of this one and it's great to play on the couch with a big screen.
