Nov. 2025
I have absolutely no idea how I missed this while it was in Early Access, but man is this an unexpected banger. Difficulty wise the game isn't 2D Dark Souls, but it's got enough bite in there to give you a slap if you aren't paying attention. The RPG mechanics reward you for engaging with the rest of the game (mainly levelling everything combat related is through baking and making money) and further softens the combat difficulty. I'm reserving judgement on the story so far because I'm not far enough into it, but all of the characters are charming and distinct so far. I did laugh at scenes here. Combat wise it's your typical 2D beat em up style sidescroller with three different weapons, a variety of skills and upgrades of both raw stats and effects to choose from. Go out, nuke monsters, come back and sell bread to fund your next round of skill, weapon and town upgrades. Parrying/dodging feels just about perfect in your margin for error and isn't overly punishing. The weapon selections are basically strength/dex/parry (sorry peeps, no pure caster builds here) and give you enough variety for most play styles that don't involve range. Upgrades are also fairly straight forward and are based on spending gold/ingredients rather than directly gaining XP. Levelling your bread and town gives you access to more raw upgrades so it all feels worthwhile, making even farming out the easier levels decent for delicious bread level skill points. Baking gameplay leans more on the management side with you picking the right day, the right bread and the right upgrades to maximise your gold and ingredient haul. There is a simple input minigame for the register, but it's fairly forgiving and you can get an upgrade to skip it not long into the game. Other than that, you sprint around the shop making sure it's stocked, clean and that the checkout is rolling. For an April Fools joke, the Patti Farm is a wonderful addition to the game that adds so much more depth (and freedom) to your resource management for baking and upgrades. My one complaint about this involves the English localisation. Guys, I know you aren't native English speakers, but it's not normal for people to speak about themselves or others in the third person when the other person is right in front them. It should be something like "you/I did well" not "Chaya did well". It's not cutesy so much as it makes all of them sound illiterate. Kindly swat your localiser with a newspaper and fix it, because this is sending me around the bend reading the dialogue. There's sounding cute, but your entire cast shouldn't sound like three year olds. Other than that, great game, strongly recommend it if you enjoy games like Muramasa or Sakuna. Even at full price it's an absolute steal.

If you like moonlighter/sakuna of rice and ruin you'll like this game. Like most of the review said the boss in this game is pretty hard especially the later stage and your main problem in the game is the stage hazard/enviromental damage (at least for me). The mobs are pretty easy. Overall 7/8 out of 10.

Overall this game turned out to be a blast! Art, music, and story were all very good. It took me around 25 hours to beat the game but that being said I still am gonna 100% the game. I will admit though for 100% it will get a bit grindy money and possibly material wise. That being said I still highly recommend Aeruta.

Aeruta is such a cute and fantastic game where you can tell they put a lot of effort and love into everything. You run a little cafe and run out to get ingredients to make bread to sell at said cafe. Although some of the bosses are a little too hard for y tastes. So if you're someone who casually plays games like I do and doesn't like having to try fighting a boss over and over, think it over before buying the game. Even then you can still just prep for all the bosses which does make your game lean a bit towards cafe sim. But how I view it is that the main things you are supposed to do is gather materials and run the cafe and fix up the town. The only problems that I have with this game is very small. Firstly the ingredient known as "Ponkfruit" shares the same name as Ponkfruit, I believe it was supposed to be called Bonkfruit. Also the only other problem is that I cannot listen to the OST outside of the game...

Great game even for a early access. Fun game play loop, with great pixel art and smooth animations. Positives so far: + Top notch pixel art, animations, and great color schemes. + Great sound track. + Works flawless on Lunix and I hope this developer keeps Lunix in mind moving forward. + Badge system is fun and keeps combat refreshing testing new mechanics. + Combat is fun, fluid and fast. + Fun and rewarding game play loop. You always feel you are making progress somewhere even if you are dying a lot at first. + Great mini games. + Fun bosses to learn. They tend to be hard at first until you make progress and learn the moves. What I think needs improved: * Everyberry item drop rate seems very low at this stage of the game compared to every other drop. Too many breads require Everyberry to level up. * When doing the spinning roller move. It seems if the enemy does an attack animation, the spinning roller stops doing damage and just continues it's spinning mid air. This is bad for the upgrade that moves to another enemy after killing one as it halts killing all together and lowers dps. When it works it works great though and it does work most of the time. * I felt the base levels needs some type of variation. After a while you learn all the enemy locations and level layouts after a few times going in. I think this can be adjusted with randomized enemy locations or randomized level layouts. Or maybe come kind of randomized cave or tower you go to where you spend a day not knowing what you will get. * The roller felt better to play with and make progress with than the whip. This may be personal play style though and I look forward to the new weapons updates. * Internal settings for controller icons would be nice. I played with a PS5 controller and the icons where xbox. This can make some mini games like the rhythm one confusing or difficult. Overall, I felt I got good value for the money even right now as a early access game. I look forward to seeing what they do with it.
