Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Been playing this game for about 3 hours, having alot of fun with it so far, if you like 16 bit graphic styles and Legend of Zelda type gameplay with an above average difficulty, this game is for you.
10 of 46 sampled reviews raised it
Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
I omit commenting on the plot itself, as I don't feel I have enough information at present to comment accurately on the componant, and won't bother giving input on the multiplayer since I live a ocean away from everyone I've tried to play with.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The 2D art style is polished but repetitive: most of the areas that you explore look the same, and there aren't many landmarks or memorable spots that help you navigating the map, forcing you to constantly look at the map.

Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
Of course it wasn't too hard, it was definitely doable.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Soundwise it feels 100% like a classic SNES game, from the nostalgic soundtrack to the 16-bit sound effects.
