Is there cats? Yes. Is there mazes? Well it's a metroidvania so sure? Could there be more fluff? Yes, but there is a decent amount of fluffs. So it's based on slavic mythology, so that's neat. It's a bit janky with some sections, but overall it's a fun metroidvania (a bit short) but I do recommend it.

Really fun metroidvania, honestly much better than I thought. Character design is a bit too pixelated and the game could benefit from quality of life features, like markers on the map, but I would recommend it for fans of the genre. Especially on sale it's a steal.

i bought this about six years ago, played it for about ten minutes, then closed it and inexplicably never touched it again for years. it was always one of those games where i wondered "...why didn't i play that?" in my backlog, but never went back to it for so long. i decided on a whim late last night to play through it, and was so captivated that i went for a 100% completion and spent my entire day playing it. genuinely cannot recommend this enough as a fun game to blast through in a weekend and try to complete. it doesn't overstay its welcome at all, and the entire world is beautiful in how it flows together. i never felt compelled to look up any guides, and even with my relatively dumb-bitch brainpower i 100%ed it in a day, albeit playing from sunup well past sundown. captivating characters with narratives far more intertwined and thoughtful than the game's length may suggest and an easy to navigate, vibrant world make this one a blessing to play and super easy to recommend. will definitely be suggesting this to my friends :)

A nice, short, sweet Metroidvania. The setting and many characters seem to be based on Slavic mythology, but knowing nothing about it did not stop me from enjoying the game.

Fun little metroidvania, quite silly and charming. Worth a buy but don't expect too much replayability, took me 10h to ace the thing, last boss was a b&tch to go though.
