Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
132 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The only good thing the story has is the main character, Icey herself, she doesn’t talk but she is adorable.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
126 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Also, every time you are almost done defeating an enemy, you can do a finishing move, these moves will heal Icey a little bit and I recommend you do this as there is no other way to really replenish your health in combat.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
96 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I'd highly suggest exploring every nook and cranny and trying to find every single ending and every achievement.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
41 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack is also free and is included and the OST of this game is fantastic, just icing on the cake of an already brilliant game.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
31 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Icey has a genuinely nice art style that is beautiful to look at in some areas, it gives off that feel of an isolated world where no humans exist.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
9 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
On the plus side, you can tell that a lot of care and attention went into the main character design, but beyond that, the total experience, left me wanting more... of another game.
