I love top-down 2D action RPGs, but the genre is a dying breed, so it's incredibly refreshing when a game developer makes one but also makes one so well. I think that the level of exploration and combat is perfect, both in terms of the amount and the difficulty. Loved the pixel graphics, and I personally thought that the "hands-off" approach in terms of storytelling and guidance was really refreshing (so many times a game overloads you with endless fluffed-up story, and holds your hand too much in guiding you along, taking away all the wonder and mystery).I only have one main criticism, which takes away from it being a perfect game, which is that the bosses are ridiculously irritating to beat. I don't simply mean difficult, it's more the manner in which they're difficult. Because of the 5-bar health system, which can't be increased throughout the game, you have to constantly nanny the health bar going down and time using a medkit *just right*, so you:1) Don't do it prematurely and use one up unnecessarily2) Don't wait too late and die3) Pick a moment in the fight, taking into account points 1 & 2, to allow for the 2-second heal animation to finish (which can and does get interrupted by the boss, resulting in either dying if the boss gets you before it completes, or getting damaged if it's just after)I've found that beating a boss is more about monitoring the health bar about learning how and when to use it, which just isn't a satisfying way of beating a boss. I think that the 5-bar health system is perfect for regular gameplay, because it lends to tactics of using medkits wisely as you navigate through the terrain and dungeons. But, I think for bosses it should act differently, perhaps temporarily taking away one medkit from your arsenal and expanding it to 10 bars. Yes, that'd make it easier to beat bosses, but the developers could balance that by making the bosses stronger and/or their weapons and tactics better. Again, it's not about decreasing the difficulty of the bosses, I just found the type of difficulty irritating (I didn't have that "Yes!" feeling when beating them, just a "Urgh, finally" feeling.All of the non-boss stuff I throughly enjoyed, but I just didn't enjoy going up against any of the bosses. Since fighting the bosses only accounts for a small portion of the game, it's still a strong 9/10 from me.

Lack of guidance and bosses that feel very repetitive are let downs. It's a game known for excellence retro inspired graphics and atmosphere.Lack of guidance and bosses that feel very repetitive are let downs. It's a game known for excellence retro inspired graphics and atmosphere. But I felt a guide was necessary to enjoy this game to the fullest, eg to find the extra costumes, which just feels a flaw in the game design. It's worth playing but lacks replay value.

The music, story, and journey is very morose, almost depressing in a way, but it feels so unique and focused. It seriously scratches the over-world action adventure itch, with games like Link to the Past that it feels like it draws the perfect level of inspiration from. My 1 and ONLY qualm was the world map confusion I had quite often up until the very end of the game, I really had a lot of trouble navigating around the map, and the map didn't always help very much with directing me. Maps aside, this game absolutely dominates, it's atmosphere, tone and absolutely fantastic music set it apart from other over-world adventures, with fast reflex combat, smooth framerate at 60fps, and a beautiful color pallet. Give this one a try if you like a good challenge, it'll be sure to put you up to the task!

I didn't knew what to expect, maybe an action game and that's it. But no, this game has some "Metroidvania" feels but in a Top Down View that really felt good to explore the areas of the game. Combat is amazing and you have plenty of variety to experiment on your own. The soundtrack is breathtaking, story is very cryptic and I like it that way. I can't stop thinking on how great this game felt the first time I played it. Loved every bit of it!!
