I found the world gorgeous and engaging and the story, while very simple, kept me invested, even if I was able to predict the ending.

I got this game like 4 years ago, didnt get to play it bc I didnt have a controller back in the day now that I have I started playing this game like a month ago and got addicted to it, super fun but difficult, you will require to git gud in this game if you want to complete it, art direction is beautiful, gameplay is good plus it has an expansion called eagle island twist, I have not played it yet because I really want to take a break after 43 hours of playing this game but I will def play the new expansion, I will let you know how good is the expansion :)
